Today, whilst mooching around the boards, I’ve been noticing that the main forum pages don’t appear to be refreshing. I click on a thread, read the OP and see that there are several replies, but when I click to back to the main forum page (not by using the back button, but by using the drop-down menu at the bottom of the page), when I return to a main forum page, it still says that there have been no replies to a thread even when I’ve just seen them. I’ve clicked refresh and it _still_ says no replies. Then later, it all rights itself again. Am I going mad? Fran ---

Nope. Has happened to me a couple of times. In a couple of cases, I was the last person to reply to a thread, but my name did not appear on the forum page until a few minutes later. Not that I am looking to be on the forum page, but you know what I mean. ---

I’ve noticed this today, too. ---

Somethings weird here too. I submitted a reply, decided to hit the bathroom while I was waiting, came back and it said “sorry, only one post every 60 seconds”. I am the only one here, only hit submit once, unless the dogs did it. I went back to the thread to see if I had double posted, and my reply was gone! ---

Yeah, there’s definitely something strange goin’ on today. The Chicago guys are lookin’ at it. It’ll be cleared up soon, I’m sure. ---

I’m sure [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=81861) is related. I came into ATMB for these exact reasons. Hope all is well. ---

I notified Jerry of all these weird things. More info as I find out about it, or perhaps Jerry will speak to this in his own time. your humble TubaDiva Administrator
