I've only noticed this error at GJO's section of the board.. but I don't vist anywhere else on the board, really.

I don't quite know how to describe this .. so I'll give an example.

I go to GJO's forum, and it lists Dasquin as the last person to post in the roleplaying helpdesk.. when I go to the fourm, the last post was made by Kanji today.. so I go back to the main forum, click on dasquin's name in the last post by thing and it takes me Kanji's profile.. I refreshed, and everything.. it still says last post was made by Dasquin yesterday.. as if it's ignoring the fact that Kanji made a post since then.

This has happened other times as well.. it's nothing big.. but I was just curious as to what's causing it :huh

It's because Kanji editted his post after I posted as Dasquian (he originally posted before me).

Oh.. okay.. That makes sence.^_^;

It was really bugging me as to why that happens sometimes..

Thanks :)

Edit bumping of threads is a hacked in feature. Typically when a post is edited on a vB , the thread stays where it was in the list, but I hacked it to bump the threads to the top. An unfortunate side effect is what you had explained here.

So yup, Jamo is correct.

Yeah, I've noticed on other vbs it doesn't bump a thread.. I rather like the feature, though.. even if it has this side effect :)
