a bug in the forums?

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/a bug in the forums?

Could anyone please try the following:
1.: open www.blitzmax.com
2.: click "Community"
3.: click "Search All Forums"
4.: search for "at", use simple/fast search method; not case sensitive; search user:"Fabian"
when I did these steps I got exactly one search result - topic: "minimal" post author: "Fabian" topic author "Fabian"
after I clicked on the topic link I saw "ERROR:Internal error".

Do you get the same results?
I'd say there's a bug in the forum's software or in the data base.

The post is probably missing but the database cache is not up to date.

I got the same thing

I did the same but changed fabian to rook... had over 1000 lines to look at...

Could it be the " . " at the end of Fabian that is making the DB wonky?

The error is because the topic is in the BlitzPlus Updates forum, which isn't accessible now.

Another error: Posts I posted at least a week ago are suddenly saying: "3 minutes ago." Does it count as posting when I merely look at the page?

Shouldn't do. Where are the posts?

I noticed that a few days ago. Replies I'd posted days ago were saying they'd been posted within hours.

Probably a result of daylight saving time or something throwing everything out. Clocks went back an hour last week and I'm sure this caused the same problem last year too.

Days ---> hours/Mons . Happens when brl move the topic. (might be a different thing tho)
