Problem with the 'What is an RPG, General Thread'

Post by DesR85 »

There seems to be a problem with the '[url="http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/showthread.php?p=853629#post853629"]What is an RPG, General Thread[/url]' at the RPG discussion section. It seems like it didn't display Foss' name when he is the last poster for that thread. Secondly, when I posted a reply there, my post doesn't seem to show up after I revisit that thread. My name did show up there but not my post. Can anyone enlighten me on this?

I can't see what happened at your end, but when I clicked your link and checked, both Foss' post and yours correctly showed up as the last two in the thread.

fable, you are not showing up for me here either, well not before I actually opened it. It's like that for a few threads.
And He whispered to me in the darkness as we lay together, Tell Me where to touch you so that I can drive you insane; tell Me where to touch you to give you ultimate pleasure, tell Me where to touch you so that we will truly own each other. And I kissed Him softly and whispered back, Touch my mind.

That's very odd. I suggest you send a PM to Buck explaining exactly what you've found, since I can't reproduce it.

It seems to show the same for me too. From the main GB Forums page, it shows that DesR85 posted today and when I open the thread it shows the latest post on the 10/06/06. That's for the What is an RPG thread.

I think it's the forum issues we've been having, the database errors etc. I don't see any other explanation. I have the exact same thing as Rav, plus the missing fable though I could see his post once I opened the thread.

Ok, I managed to take some pictures of the GB page. I used both IE and Firefox to make sure that its not browser related. On my first 2 pictures titled, 'GB page using Firefox 12,' and, 'GB page using IE', both have my name in that thread and it stated 'Today'.

But when looking at both pictures labelled, 'bottom of What is an RPG thread in Firefox exp,' and, 'Bottom of What is an RPG thread using IE exp,' my post seems to be missing.

Hope someone can see this properly as my skills at resizing pictures is very limited at best.

And lastly, thank you, Ashen and Ravager, for clarifying this problem for me. I thought that I must be hallucinating or something.:laugh:

As mentioned by Ashen, then these issues are most likely connected to the database issues Buck mentions in the "connecting to GB"-thread in this forum.

So please have some patience while Buck works out the issues, and after that if the issue persist, then you should bring it up again.

Yes, it probably has something to do with the database issues, since it seems like those issues started just around when I made that post.
I had no problems getting into gamebanshee's website before I posted, but had serious problems after.
And the main page still looks broken.

But, good to know that people are working on it.
