I believe you're talking about Shane. Shane was without his PC for 2 weeks like you said. Mentioned here: Short Absense. I don't believe anything happened, I just think he was away. However we were told it has been delayed due to scripting, and some mapping things that need to be implemented. They have been working around the clock, I don't believe they lost any data. Just adding data they haven't already.
He said it in all chat, lol he was able to recover the data with a usb.
