currently, the emojis on old posts are huge, i.e:

Yes I’ve noticed. It’s because they are treated as normal images in this forum, so they display at their original size. We may be able to do something with CSS if we can match all these image links which came from old forum software icons. Not sure, we’ll see after the bigger issues are resolved. I’ve added it to the Known Issues of the OP though, thanks for the feedback!

Oh my, such a blast from the past. 
I normally delete all PMs, but everything since 2014 re-appeared (2013 for even more OG members). Probably because of the “conversation” nature of the modern PM systems, if the other party/parties still had these PMs in their inbox, they automatically appear to everyone involved. Don’t get me wrong, this is how PMs should be nowadays, and it looks great, just surprised me a bit, haha.
Obviously, it works. Great work Wendell! 
Has the import finished? Did it encounter any issues? On my end, I cannot talk about pre-2022/04 PMs (don’t have them at the old forum), but I think some new ones may be missing. For example, one from April 24th 2022 (judging by the old forum).
PM looks good from my side.
Posts don’t have modified edit date time, only original post date is preserved?

ok with private messages ‘handled’ (haha sorry aquavision, can just mass purge/archive them from your acct) I dont need to be “close” to the server anymore. Putting it back in europe so its faster for everyone else. also will fix old domain in a bit.

Only globally, not per-user
Yes, that was some of the spam we had with the old forum, which I had circumvented by throwing new users to a restricted group upon signing up. You must have had these before at some point, but deleted users got migrated as “system” and their pm/conversation had you as participant (among many others) so that’s why they appeared again here. Unfortunately, all of us will need to delete these manually.
no, all of my private messages have been replaced with the spam bots, so i lost everything i originally had
In general, old migrated PMs are a bit weird/broken now. In my case, various PMs start with these spam posts but then include a completely different conversation. Check if that’s the case for you as well. Not sure if something can be done about this, honestly. I’ll tag @wendell just in case.

Even the replies to my private messages are somebody else’s conversation or the bots.
