+TresOkies Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Here are a couple bugs I've found in the forums... http://opentopic.Groundspeak.com/0/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=1750973553&f=1980966883&m=7060956493 Notice arffer's comment of 3/2. Appears to be in the middle of the posting. Perhaps a truncation from the import. http://opentopic.Groundspeak.com/0/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=1750973553&f=1980966883&m=9530979883ExConn seems to have several postings that are probably parts of one and appear to be torn apart with HTML tags thrown in to boot. FWIW, you should probably prevent people from screwing around with font tags since they apparently show up. I'm often thrown back to the root of the forums for no discernable reason. And, no, I'm not taking hits on my crack pipe while surfing. I know I'm _not_ pressing the root link. -E -- N35°32.981 W98°34.631 Link to comment

I noticed alot of these strange happenings at the time of the forum transfer, but I have not seen them since. My guess is that the "The forum import was not perfect" statement at the top of the new forums is directed at these types of instances. Also, I never used font tags so I think it was just a one time thing as a result of the forum transfer... -exConn What is Project Virginia? Link to comment

No doubt. The one that really bugs me is that I am quite often sent back to the root of the forums for absolutely no reason. I'm running IE 5 on Mac OS 9.2.

Elias Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 Corrupted Posts: We had some serious problems importing the content from the old forums which corrupted those posts and several others. The import software would keep crashing for some reason and had to be restarted - it took over a week to import the old posts. Login Issues: Check out my posts in this thread. I talk about some of the possible causes for the problems you may be experiencing. If you find that the forums are still behaving differently, let me know and I'll keep working on it. -Elias Link to comment
