Why are the newest threads I'm seeing in October, 2006?
« on: January 12, 2007, 01:46:50 am »
Guys, I think there might be a setting wrong or something (either with my setup or the system itself), but I've been trying to rekindle my long-lost love affair with epicmarine.com but can't see any posts newer than October.  What the heck is going on.  Who knows how to help me out.  Might be worth PM'ing me, because I probably won't be able to see your reply.

Good to have u back in the ranks, Cal,

I think I know the problem. What you are actually seeing are the "Sticky" posts at the top. This forum does a poor job of showing the difference between a sticky and a regular post. Basically a sticky post is always at the top, no matter when the last post was made. The icon to the left of the post is the only visual cue that it is a sticky. If you look Reaaal close you can see that the top 3 posts have a different icon to the left, indicating a sticky. Most forums use like a thumbtack icon to indicate a sticky. I'll get around to changing that someday.

Do what I always do. Go to the homepage....http://www.epicmarine.com/ and you can see the latest posts to any of the boards.

If this does not explain it, then your internet connection is just reeaaallly slow... and you're still living in the 2006 web.  ;D ;D

Hey Les, 

It's actually more complicated than that.  The sticky notes are there (I belive 3-4 or so), but then it shows the most recent post having been in September.  There is nothing newer than September anywhere in the main forum (all the other forums work fine).  I'm guessing it's something to do with a setting on my computer at home, because the site works perfect from my computer at work.  I don't know...  Thank you for the PM!  It has me curious about business stuff... I'll drop you an email later today.
