    I have the same problem Delta is describing. I can see from the general view in the forum that there have been new posts (such as yours at 11:30ish yesterday morning), but I cannot see any of them when I click on the thread. The most recent post I see is from 26 Jul. Since my computer was not even turned on from midday on the 25 to the 27th there should be no proxy or refresh issues here (I set my browser to reload all pages everytime). Now of course it does seem to be working once again.

    I have seen this happen other times in other threads as well.

    Maybe it is just a glitch caused by some interruption of continuity due to the deletion of some of the thread. (Actually sounded like I knew what I was talking about, didn't it?)

    I still can't figure it out because I checked in the thread list for the "PTT by next week" thread and shows the last post was made by Anthromatt on Tuesday July 29, 2003 7:02 AM. Inside the thread I can see that was his last post. Maybe when the posts were deleted, the thread list was showing the last post that was there, but you can't see that post because it was deleted. In other words, the thread list maybe was not updated to reflect the new last post. I wouldn't worry about it. It will fix itself in a couple of days when new posts are made and the list updates again.

    I understand the clean-up process must be done, and I am not trying to annoy moderators, but the "Random" thread was definitely a hit. It grew rather quickly and people were actually having fun with it. Am I wrong?

    I know the server space would have gotten out of hand, but doesn't it count for anything that a lot of people replied to it, and that there were constant LOL's [​IMG]'s [​IMG]'s [​IMG]'s and [​IMG]'s all over the place? I mean, after all, it was only ONE thread out of thousands. How much could it have affected the forum? Eventually it would have died down, right? [​IMG]

    ....Just my 2 cents....

    I agree it was a popular thread. I even posted in it. Still, it is blatantly against forum policy. If you/we/them/us (LOL) want to find a place to chat there are other ways to do it outside the forum. I'm also afraid the origins of the thread (apparently why it was originally created) may not have been done so in the most tactful manner. Just scroll through any of the forums and you will find plenty of off-topic chat that really doesn't pertain to wireless at all. But those threads "devolved" from something topical while this one had an express purpose for being off-topic.
