It's not being updated, apparently. I've posted since the 15th of September, but it doesn't show up when I select 'View My Threads'. The last entry in the list is fromn September 15.

I'm running Opera 7 with Win 2 k. Could it be cookie implosions?

They SAID that given enough time a million monkeys with typewriters could recreate the collected works of William Shakespeare... Internet sure proved them wrong.

I haven't heard anyone else having problems ... but do you realise that it only lists the posts that you start?

It does?

I didn't know that. I thought it listed the threads I participate in. If that's the case, then I withdraw my report.

@CattleRustler,

I have somewhere around 2500 posts, mostly in different threads.

I really don't want to see all of those, and I guess that Rich doesn't really want the database hammered by searching the whole database for someones posts.

It's a reasonable compromise I think

I've got around 1500 posts I think, and judging by my general participation level in threads, a list of replied-to threads would be about 700 long. It'd be hell to find anything and a strain on the server... better without I can't help but think...

Hmmm, I'm not too fond of the idea of showing all threads you reply to. If you need to keep track of a thread that badly add it to your favourites list with the Add button at the bottom of the page. When I overhaul the search though it'll let you search for an author. This might help I guess. No changes for now though.

Cheers,

Rich

Got it, Rich, but here's another alternative anyway. It doesn't display any closed threads. It would be a nice feature. But I'll get out of your hair about it.

Well, the locked threads. The ones that get automatically closed after a while. At least I get a yellow text below certain threads that say that the thread has been automatically locked since nobody has replied to them for 30 days... Or something like that.

Ok. It does display those though. It'll display any thread you've ever started, just page through them.

Cheers,

Rich
