I was user 2 and had administration assigned to me.

I restored from backup today. I am going to set up a test site to replicate issue to share as should be measure in place to prevent what I did moving people from one user group to another. I ended up being in the group along with our other moderators and all of us were impacted and lost moderator and above functions.

If I can replicate in test site, I will have a before and after db for you to compare and video capture of steps.
