I (for the time being) am the last person to post to [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=132260) thread. My name shows up fine in the thread, but on the GQ front page it shows that the last post was by **Unregistered**. Should I take that as a hint?

Nah, man. It just means you posted through the quick-reply box, then got uncookied, re-logged in, then backpaged, and hit submit again. Right?

Ya put the cookie in

Ah ha! Thinking back I believe you hit **exactly** the process of posting. I think I backpaged so as to avoid stress on the server/ long wait time. Thanks!!
