Alright, so I make constant updates for my game, and host it myself. But my save files don't work every time I restart the server for updates. What's wrong?
I doubt that there are any decent, reliable mind reading devices available to the volunteers trying to help you.
Or, in other words, without crucial information, the best people could do would be to guess and assume, which is never beneficial with complex material like computers.

First of all, what exactly do you refer to by 'don't work'. What is the relevant code snippet for your saving and loading routines and in case the file is corrupted, what is the content of the file?
Are you uploading the updates before closing the server?
When you create new variables, and try to save them onto an old account, that is probably what is bugging your system. New or old variables being edited/changed with completely different values, or name changes, could mess up your save files.

Which is why no one deleted it; the moderator history shows no indication any post of yours on this thread was deleted. Obviously it didn't post in the first place.

How do I do that?
