About two and a half hours ago, I made a reply to the thread in the OTF called The Necessity of Christianity's God. Imagine my surprise, therefore, when I came back ten minutes ago and saw that it was not on the front page. "Wow," I thought, "the forum is fast tonight." However, checking closely, I saw that several threads I had replied to earlier were still on the frontpage. "Oh no," I thought, "it has been eaten by the curse! And I spent half an hour typing that reply!"
However, just to check if I was sure, I looked at page two. And there was the thread! So I thought, "didn't my reply register or something?" I looked at the thread. No, there was my reply, with the correct time above it. Wow. But it should have been at least half-way up the first page, I thought.
So I goes back out and I see that the reported last reply time was a whole ten hours before I made my reply. The forum listing script had failed to take notice of my post!
