I have parcipated in many threads on this board before. Sometimes I forget where I last posted. It used to be, all I had to do was hit profile, and it would give me my last post. I tried it tonight, and all I got was the time of my last post. Has something changed? And why?

At least some of the slowdowns we’ve been having are traceable to some sort of glitch in the “show last post” function.

While the techs try to find the problem, they have turned that function off.

As soon as they’re able to restore that function without crippling the board, they will do so.

Sorry for your inconvenience.
