Today I did a reply to a thread in the Graphics forum about throbbers. I thought I did a reply, but later I looked and my reply had become the entire thread. All the prior posts seem to be gone.

Does anyone know why this happened? I did include one file.

This thread: http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?10,118728

Don't worry, just look at the post number - it's only 3 numbers below this one. So you didn't "vanish" all old posts from 2002 (that the idiot spam robot had resurfaced), but a mod did separate the old thread and single out your new post into an own, new thread - makes a lot of sense! :-))

I went back to my history and tried to go the "New Throbber" thread. I got a forum message that it could not be found. There is a thread that is gone.

This is the item in my history.

OK, I found it.

Siria was right. It was really old. A spam marked it 'new' but then the spam was fixed. My history was to the now missing spam. I cut off the URL and found the message.

I guess this means I fixed a request from January of 2002.

Thanks for help, everyone.

Hey - just noticed you found a new forum bug :O
The author of EDITS is only shown if in control center the forum language is set to english (or standard), not if it's e.g. german! Then the line is finished after "AM".

Sigh - and now after switching languages the forum TIME automatically jumped back to the chinese (!) standard... Sure I can switch that too, after noticing, but find the default zone a bit funny, considering it's a mainly western browser.

What time zone does the forum use?
