Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Hey all. I've skipped a lot so this may already be a Known Issue.

I've begun to notice that sometimes, posts appear, I read then, and then they seem to revert to being "new" when I get back to Message Center. This has only happened a few times I can think of, and it's only one or two posts at a time, but, you know, apocalyptic fears that my individual presence is breaking things.

An example of what happens: I go into Natter XVI, which has 1204 messages, 4 new. I read the 4 new. I go back to Message Center, see that there are 2 more new messages in Natter XVI, so I click on it again. And when I get there, the screen shows me #1204, which I've already read, standard context-post, and #1295, which I have also already read, and #1206, which is the only new post.

Doesn't happen with any consistency I can map, but it happens, and I worry. So. Any ideas?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good call, Nutty -- it's been happening for me, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm assuming that 1295=1205, right?

And are there duplicate post numbers ever involved? That's the only time anything like that has been happening to me.

It has been happening to me, too. But I thought I was crazy!

Whoa. It just happened to me, with no duplicate post number.

See what you did?

I also ignored it because I use the back button a lot, and who knows what that does? Not me, is who.

I've noticed it happening a couple of odd times ita.

Thanks for all the fish.

Yeah, every once in a while I get it too.

And me. Thought it was a minor glitch not worth mentioning, or that, you know, it was just me...
