Forum Gremlins?

February 21, 2008 4:45:00 AM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
The post has either been removed or the forum gremlins have stolen it.


I'm assuming this error message is part of the new forum upgrades, because its the first time I've seen it.

What do you do if you have a bad case of forum gremlins?  Is there a cure?

That's priceless. Zoomba said they had a fun time writing new error messages for all the sites.

Almost makes me want to screw up so I can see them!

Not AFAIK. It just seems to happen when the post queries fail for some unknown reason or another (high load, etc).

Maybe the Gremlins were brought in after the Wheel of Fire incident(s) so that posts could "disappear" more innocuously.

Actually, I get this error about half the time I click on the "View All Recent Posts" link at the bottom of every page. That is the link I use to navigate the forums primarily, so I see this error a lot all of a sudden.

Seems the gremlins LIKE the recent posts as much as I do...

I use this for recent and have yet to encounter the gremlins.
