Every time i go “back” from a thread to the thread menu for MPSIMS, it reverts to the menu as it was two days ago, always with the “I killed three threads in a row” thread on top. I have to hit refresh every time. This doesn’t happen with the other forums, just MPSIMS, and it only happens on this compuer, so i’m fairly certain that it’s a local problem. I’ve tried clearing my cache, but to no avail. Any suggestions?
