The part of the profile page that (if you've flagged anything) gives a total and a link to your flag history has gone missing:

screencap

Note in the screen capture that I am a moderator on that site, and trust me I've flagged posts. I first noticed this absence in my user profile on Hermeneutics, where I am not a mod. (I have the Deputy badge -- so, again, there are definitely flags.)

I am not seeing this with my profile here on MSO.

Firefox 18 and Chrome 16,0.912.77, Win XP.

Going directly to the flag-summary page (on Mi Yodeya) shows no flag activity.

    My flag count is still showing on Stack Overflow but is missing on my DBA.SE profile. – Taryn♦ Jun 25 '13 at 21:24

    My flag count is higher as it should be. Looks like comment flag are counted now which wasn't previously? – juergen d Jun 25 '13 at 21:28

    @juergend, did you steal my flags? :-) – Monica Cellio♦ Jun 25 '13 at 21:28
  • And if you go directly to the flag history page? – Shadow Wizard Jun 25 '13 at 21:28

    @juergend: Yes, old comments were assigned a status. They also appear in your history now. – animuson♦ Jun 25 '13 at 21:29

    @ShaWizDowArd good idea. The flag-summary page is as if I had no flags. The problem appears to be deeper than the profile page. – Monica Cellio♦ Jun 25 '13 at 21:37
  • The flag count is also missing on all four beta sites I checked. – yannis Jun 25 '13 at 21:39
  • Missing on: Mi Yodeya, Hermeneutics, ELU, Workplace, Wrtiers, BCG. (I think those + MSO are all the sites on which I have Citizen Patrol, hence flags.) – Monica Cellio♦ Jun 25 '13 at 21:42
  • Missing on Arqade. – FAE Jun 25 '13 at 21:46

    Yep, the entire stats on the tens of thousands of flags that have been casted on Arqade have gone. – badp Jun 25 '13 at 21:57

    @MonicaCellio Flags are back now on Arqade – badp Jun 25 '13 at 22:21

    I've noticed slightly different behavior on Arqade - specifically, I seem to have picked up ~40 new Helpful Flags during the course of the day. (I haven't flagged anything today.) – LessPop_MoreFizz Jun 25 '13 at 22:27

    @badp'skitten aw man, what are people for, then? So, should I, um, flag this? :-) – Monica Cellio♦ Jun 25 '13 at 22:34

We're rolling out a massive refactoring around flags, including how and where they're stored in the database.

The data required a backfill, which has just completed, so everything should be back to normal (or better!) (or worse :( ).

Just report bugs you notice - thank you!

    Would an increase of 40 in my Helpful Flag count be considered a bug? Or has the calculation changed in some way? – LessPop_MoreFizz Jun 25 '13 at 23:26

    I jumped from 45 to 99 as well. – ɥʇǝS Jun 25 '13 at 23:37

    @LessPop_MoreFizz it's by-design. Comment flags weren't being counted correctly. – Jarrod Dixon♦ Jun 26 '13 at 0:58
