Missing Thread! - In CIV3, PBEM Forum

[burly]

Hi,
I posted a thread titled "Newbie PBEM" in the CIVIII PBEM forum on Saturday. When I came to the forum on Monday morning, the thread was missing. It was an active thread as it had at least 5 replies. Was there a rash of thread deletions?

Please help.
Thanks,
Burly

Odd, it shows up when I view "My Threads". But it still doesn't show up in the forum. Hmm . . .

Well I added a reply to the thread after entering it through the "My Threads" link. It's there now, but that still doesn't explain where it went.

Thread on this a while ago. Forums with topped threads have a bug that means you 'lose' a thread between the first and second pages.

(Or, you could have not seen it on the first page, go to the second page, whence it was bumped to the first, and not seen it on the second.)

It fell into the "twilight zone" of the forum. Some threads like to live in the area between pages. Usually a new thread makes it visible again, or as you did, you posted to it... and another thread enters the zone... it happens. The Twilight Zone has been reported many times.

/me suggest to Spike that he start a "Sticky Thread Black-Hole Bug" contest since this is coming up so much.

I was waiting for the thread starter to respond, and now he has. Question asked and answered. Case Closed.
