Ill Wind

I just visited my recent GQ thread about skorts. The latest post is by Autumn Wind Chick.

In the forum view, it says the last post is by autumn wind chick (all lower case).

But when I opened the thread, she was identified as Autumn Wind Chick (initial letter capitals).

What’s the deal?

This best way to explain this I guess is with an example:

When I first registered, I typed my name as “Starbury

Now, let’s say I log in the next day, and I type my name in as “starbury”.

When I start a thread (or I’m the latest poster to a thread) it will show my name on the thread list as “starbury”, but when you open the thread it will list it as “Starbury”. I assume the thread list page saves your name from the cookie/session id that you currently have, while the actual posts within the thread take your name from the database, where it was recorded when you initially registered.

Do you mean like this?

Almost 2700 posts and I discover a new trick. :cool:

What, you’ve never seen one of the several threads started by BeAr_nEnNo (or something)? I remember that he was rather fond of this quirk when it was first discovered.

Okay, now you all are just being wiseasses. :stuck_out_tongue:

wE aRE nOT!

Crap. I can’t even get a board glitch to work.

Guess I picked the wrong week to give up sniffing glue!

I believe this is my cue to laugh like a madwoman.

MBWAHAHAHAHA.

Thank you.
