Broken thread?

[tom_d]

I'm trying to view the thread about a 15HP RPC started by The Metal Butcher today and it appears to be "broken". All I can view are two posts numbered 16 and 17. Anybody else having problems? All the other threads and the rest of this site seem to be performing normally.

Eve n worse for me, just one big gray space, no title, and a bit at the bottom.

It is seriously AFU

[PStechPaul]

Agree. Last post by Lakeside does not appear. Paul A's post seems to have killed it.

[The Metal Butcher]

Yes. I got it to load for me once and I made a reply. Now it is broken. Until Paul's post is edited or deleted, I doubt anyone can post. I doubt Paul can even edit it. I can't click any of the buttons on his post.

works for me if I go directly to page 2, and I saw MB's last post prior to my 2 .

[Paul Alciatore]

Yes, I was posting there and something went very wrong. I tried to flag it and also sent a message to the moderator right after it happened.

I can not open my thread to edit it. I will try again, but I don't think I will be able to correct it.

George! Oh George! Help please!

I tried to get in to edit that post, but could not. I guess it is in George's hands.

My apologies to all for this.

I clicked on the last post (page 2) and the page opened. From there I clicked on page 1 and it opened as well. Simply clicking the first page first did NOT work, so there's something wonky with the database. To me it looks visible okay back to front.

No worries Paul, it happens. I tried to flag it too but couldn't. I think it is something to do with quotes, when it loads up they are pretty strange... Or the color

Flagging does not work, adding posts does not work, although after trying to do so, the display became "more normal". I tried it again in case it would become "even more normal", but as I expected, it did not.

Well at any rate, don't worry about it too much fellas. I won't be doing much on it til I graduate. It will be a slow processes, probably will be finished in June. If it takes a few days for George to fix it, that's fine, it won't matter in the grand scheme of things. I'm just bouncing ideas and learning right now.

I appreciate all the help though. Thanks!

My concern is that it may corrupt the forum database, and mess up more things. Evidently the software did something it ought not to have done.

Looks to be working now. I am limited in what I can do from this end and had to resort to the BFH approach and delete Paul's thread. Not sure what he did in it but it looks like that was the problem.
