Site Question


Something weird happened to my account and maybe one of the moderators can address it in this thread or privately.  I logged in and first off I had started a topic and usually that is saved to draft for the next time I log in that is gone.  Everything on the site looks like it has been read.  Is there a reason for this?  When I log in I can tell what I have and have not read because some posts I want to go back and address later. 

Any ideas as to what happened?

Thanks,

S :)

That just happened to me to S - the 'all things marked as read'....I'm not sure - perhaps a system hiccup? How's that for a technical response?

One thing that does help when this happens is posts show in order of latest response. It's much easier when they are bolded to know what you've seen/not seem but at least we have that!

I am so spoiled.....this is causing me to 'do different' - adapt and pray....(I am talking to myself in case you wondered!)

It's still happening as of now!

And here I was shaking my head and saying 'man it;s quiet on MIP tonight". I figured no bold= no posts, lol, I didn't think to look at the time stamps.

I'll concur with the technical analysis of "hiccup".

Maybe if we scare it? lol

Thanks Betty! I didn't think to do that and keep hoping it will fix itself....

May have to resort to MissMel's suggestion - scare it!!!

We are powerless over the board, and will have to wait on a higher power to take care of it in his own time.

For those of you who miss the bold, like I do, note that the little checkboxes next to the posts show if they are new.  If they are dark, they have been read, if not there are new posts in the thread.  See attachment for a little help.

I hope this is not a system upgrade? ROFL.....can you tell I resist change?

It looks fixed now anyway, at least for me...

 

And I understand change resistance.  Our IT group where I work did a scheduled maintenance to one of our systems on Sunday evening, and it turned out Monday morning it was broken, and is jut now limping along, 36 hours later.  I think this change here is going better than that at least!

Mine appears fixed too - yippee, yahoo......I am such a creature of habit - change is good but there is a part of me that likes to plan....spontaneous 'events' throw me off course at times!!
