The lag is minimal at the moment, but when posting to a conversation like this one it takes a very long time to update 1000+ conversation lists when the server is generally busy.

> "I think I've fixed the problem."

I'm still getting "no new posts" for at least one new thread which I definitely haven't viewed.

Still working okay on 'more conversations' but not on my page. Thats god enough for me.

Well me and my big mouth, minus posts showing as well now, time to disappear again me thinks, can't make head nor tail of this anymore.

I've posted 5 messages now, not one is showing in the postings list nor are any replies so whatever has been done ain't worked obviously.
I'm off till its sorts, just no point in trying to do anything.

My convo list is fine.

OK, the solution was obvious after a few second's thought. So I think I've now fixed it for all incarnations of the conversations list. It was behaving differently on the personal space than the moreposts page, which is why I didn't see it going wrong when I checked.

Let me know if it's still going wrong (unless it's just -1 new posts, which we know about and can't fix yet).

Don't forget to add that one to your test script, Jim.

Is post 43 swearing?

Oohhh.. I would say so.. "w**king".. that isn't allowed is it??

"Is this 'just' a minus one posting or is it more?

Like we have noticed before, new threads seem to lag more then running threads. This particular one was started before the last tweak.

It is a little more then four hours behind while I see conversations posted just now. (even newer threads)"

Thanks Jim

"I have several posts that stay on the minus one. Both are a single posting starting the thread.

No other oddities found."

I also have singleton thread starters with "-1 new posts" and still some with "no new posts" (on the MP list).

Would it help if i start a new "Eye" thread? I do realise it gets very long & every now & then i ditch it & create a new one. No probs; i tell everyone & they just move over.

Would it help if I unsubscribed?

*unsubscribes*

Terri, I mentioned the eye thread as an illustration because i knew i had many posts to it over a long period of time. The fault is corrected now and was nothing to do with the thread speciafically, it was just a good illustration of the fault.

Damn this personality is dead, it was brought back to life by celebdaq. Its only a zombie here though and meant to be ignored. I shall make sure it is dead again for good.

The daily SSO Server reset apparently crashed the Serer.

No, the servers didn't crash. SSO really was down for that long. As soon as it comes back, our servers immediately start behaving. Our hamsters know what they're doing.
