Skya Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 So you know that little link under your avatar on the main page that indicates new posts? I've been having issues with it occassionally telling me there are new ones when there arent. I'll wander off for a bit, come back and it wont have been long enough for it to reset the time last visited, but it will update the number of new posts. I'll click on the link, and low and behold there are no new ones. I'll check the actual forums just to make sure, and no there really are no new posts. It's not consistant, but it it is happening fairly regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hinton Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 I've noticed that as well and I think it might have something to do with new pictures being uploaded, either in member's galleries or in the current contest. I could be wrong, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Beats me, I can't even get pictue links to work for anybody else which makes me think I'm delusional and having hallucinations. But what you mention, Noel, happens to me sometimes too, where that effect lasts a few days, then it goes back to being fine where it shows new posts when there actually are. Sorry I'm no help, can just sympathise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 It could also be spam being deleted, I'm not sure, the spam would trip the new post light, then when we erase it, the light might not turn off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 I commented on this a while back and Nathan explained it. I don't recall what thread it was. Anyway, the mods have super secret forum threads that only they can read, where they communicate with each other. Posts there are added into the tally of new posts but when we look for new posts it sometimes tells us there aren't any. (but there are, they are just super secret mod-posts!)

Skya Posted February 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 That makes a lot of sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Yep, there's "secret" parts of the forum for the people who work with Wyrd (painting, designing, sculpting, bossing the others around , etc.) and, like vincegamer said, posts there are counted in the "new posts" tally.

Nathan Caroland Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 As above. Yup. Sometimes it won't be noticable as we don't get too verbal back there at times, other times we'll be mowing through posts as we work out plans on this that or another, particularly around new releases. Sorry if there has been any confusion. - Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 actually we're just all posting photos of ourselves in underware back there, just to dispell this myth that we do any work on wyrd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Caroland Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Well I was just showing off my piercings and that sparked quite the debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wren Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Hrumph. I mean, I understand that there is super secret important Wyrd stuff that the Wyrd elite need to discuss, but I don't see why we the masses don't get to see the underwear and piercings. ;-> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
