That was odd...

0rion · Posted: Thu Dec 28, 2006 1:27 pm Post subject: That was odd...

I just posted on a topic on Random Chat, and instead of the normal message confirmation (the one telling you that your message was posted and you'll be redirected), I received a strange message saying that my email failed to get sent...

...Huh!?

Anyway, the good news was that the message was posted just fine, but that was sort of strange. I'll see if I can get a capture of the screen if it does it again, and I'll post it here.

Same thing just happened to me.

Ah, here we go. It happened again, so here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about.

As I said, the message got posted, so it's no really big deal, but I thought I'd bring it up.

Also, I'm not sure if it's related, but this topic is listed as having 0 replies even though that is clearly not the case.

There are other weird happenings going on. Like the random quotes thread says that ÐÐ°ÐºÐ»ÑÑÐ»Ð°Ð½ had the last reply and there are quite a few after it.

EDIT: Wow, there are tons of threads in RC that aren't being bumped up.

I had a feeling Random Chat was going to kill the Internet.

I got the message too. The thread I posted in (the CF thread in Bemani Controllers) says that Nick9109 has the last post even though several people have posted after him.

Edit: Oh, and check this out. The edit tag shows up under both of GotACoolName's posts even though he was the last poster in the thread when he edited them.

I have an answer to the mail thing, at least. It's the cause of someone marking the thread as "notify me by email when a response..."

Uh...that's about all I know about it, though.

I am observing when you see the message "Failed Email Sent..." or whatever the message is going through. Because when I just tried to reply to the Denver SuperNOVA topic in the Southwest forum. I discovered the most recent messages are in the review recent message pane in the Reply screen. In that pane, I discovered many double posts.

So my guess bandwidth might be overloading or something (but I am not a forum web expert so don't hold me to that.)

I tried posting in the AAA thread and got this:

This could lead to a lot of important threads (TWG) dropping to page 2.

I get that error for every post I make.

EDIT: I didn't get it for this post though. How odd...

When I posted in the ITG Elimination Game FINAL thread today, I got the error and it didn't bump the thread, but after that it was working just fine.

Here's some more news...when you post and it gives you the error, your postcount doesn't increase.

So basically, it's happening on all threads where someone has selected "watch this topic for replies", right?

Must be. It's only in a few threads I get that error.

Just thought I'd throw in again really quick and mention that it isn't just normal posts that give this message, but also PMs.

Although judging by the lack of Maniac member presence in this topic, the point might be moot...

the forum must have some sort of collective alzhimers because this happens every few months due to various reasons (is someone monkeying around witht e code again by any chance)
