Posted: Wed Oct 25, 2006 7:16 pm Post subject: Double Post and Topic Disappearance |
|
|
I went to post in a thread in the Nameless Lands forum. "^<v" for your reference, Vector. Continuing on, I tried to post and a white screen came up. I've been getting that a lot lately. I tried to reload my page but pressed back right after (meaning I clicked "Reload" but clicked "Back" right after) and checked to see if it posted. It did, but it was a double post. I tried to delete the second post, but I got that white screen again. I reloaded the page, and I got the after deletion page. I clicked to return to the topic, but it said it didn't exist. I went back to the nation forum and the topic wasn't there.
I don't know much about this stuff, so I sure hope I didn't cause the topic to be lost forever. _________________

That sometimes happens when--
1) You make a topic and a white screen shows up (load time issue).
2) You post again, thinking it didn't go through.
3) As a result, you end up double posting.
4) Some other moderator spots the double post and deletes it at the same time you delete one of your posts.
5) As a result, both posts are deleted. |

Ah, so this isn't much of a problem? The topic will be fine and just reappear?
Sorry if I sound a bit naive, but I just want to be sure I didn't cause a major issue. _________________

Hmm, I have NO IDEA what happened, but somehow what you did seems to have severed what connected the topic with the Nameless Lands forum. I reconnected it, but it's very strange indeed. |

I'm relieved to see that you fixed it. Thanks, Vector.
I think I'll refrain from deleting my own posts for awhile. I'll let the moderators do it. _________________
