Missing Threads in Visual C++ forum
Question
-
<sigh> This is getting tedious - every month new problems
with the forums.
In the Visual C++ forum I just went browsing from the
start and couldn't see a thread I had replied to about
7 hrs earlier. It wasn't on page 1. It wasn't on page 2.
etc. It still exists as I can get to it via My Threads or
My Activity.
Then I noticed that there's a large time gap between the
last post in the last thread on Page 1 and the last post
in the first thread on Page 2 - about 5 hours. The thread
with my reply is in the time frame of that gap - there are
clearly threads missing between Page 1 and Page 2.It gets worse - as new threads or threads with new posts
appeared at the start of Page 1, bumping the last thread(s)
off that page, Page 2 remained unchanged. It still started
with the same thread, and the thread(s) that *were* at the
bottom of Page 1 disappeared.
Now the thread I was looking for has just appeared at the
top of Page 2, but some threads that *were* at the bottom of
Page 1 are not on Page 2 (yet). There's still a time gap of
at least 3 hrs between the message at the bottom of Page 1
and the top of Page 2. (Using the "Last Reply" time stamp.)
