ALL my mods disappeared

Today I loaded up steam, and to my crazy surprise, every single one of my thousands of downloaded mods were GONE. Vanished. :( I guess I'll have to reinstall 'em all.

This also reminds of of a few months ago, when for some reason, EVERY GAME on steam got uninstalled. Huh.

Gone? That's a shame. I hope the first mod you reinstall is obsidian! :)
Do you have younger brothers or sisters? :?

Well I have a younger sister, but the only thing she does on the computer is play Neopets. :/

She wouldn't be smart enough to do that. o_O And if she did know how do to that, she wouldn't be stupid enough to remove it.

I don't know much about steam problems and such. Do you think steam or something else removed your files? :?

No, eh, I'll just reinstall them all. It'll take a while but it will work.




...Right?

I reinstalled it and it worked! Oh joy!





P.S. My name in OC is Player 2, perhaps you've seen me.
