Now this is weird
« on: October 16, 2003, 10:55:16 AM »
I was reading Patti's post on the current topic board titled "Who played Josette" from 1841PT and also noticed that the reply count to that post was 2.   It also says that the last poster for that particular thread was Victoria Winters, yet when I read it I see dom as the last poster?  And no Victoria Winters at all in that thread.

I thought maybe the post didn't come up yet as on some boards there is a slight delay in posts.  But then I saw the date for the last post as Oct.14 so I figured I'd better bring it to your attention.

Maybe Im the only one seeing it this way so Im hoping it has nothing to do with my AOL or IE.

You're not seeing things, Cassandra.....I see it exactly the same way.  I'm not on AOL but I am using IE.....

I did the "Go to last 10 posts of V.W" and it was not there.

Was she going to post/reply (like, she clicked reply, but then she had to bake a cake, didn't get a chance)?

The solution here is:

A) The forum is haunted and that was just another manifestation of that fact.

B) We've decided to arbitrarily target certain posts and make them disappear/report themselves erroneously.

C) MB was doing some work in the database yesterday and he accidentally typed in the post ID number (40722) for victoriawinters' post (in "Love Letters Photos & Article " on CE/A '03) where he should have typed the ID number for dom's post (40725) in "Who Played Josette".

Take your pick.  [b003]


However, everything has been corrected now.

It's there - it's just that you were led to believe it was in a completely different topic from where it actually is/belongs.  [ghosty]

Wait a minute.  Did you just say this was NOT an IE-induced problem?  That IE had nothing to do with this error?  That IE was IN NO WAY responsible for this event?

Someone call CNN....I'm sure they're going to want an interview.  ::)
