OT: IF's testing

[Gaurav]

If you select the blue arrow by clicking on the radio button to the left of it, the blue arrow icon will show up on the date and time line instead of the usual thumbtack on card icon, mac. It is no different for creating a topic as for any other post. Try it yourself, mac.

Ok, test's over. Here's what I did:

After discovering/learning about ghosting, I wondered how the forum would read ghosted threads. So, I decided to do a bug test. I created the thread. The next day, I made a post and then quickly deleted it. The thread was moved to the top with the post I made, as it should have. After I deleted the post, the thread stayed in the same place, even though the date was older than Posts below it. This is a bug that could be annoyingly exploited, although I doubt that there is anyone here that would do such a thing.

And the blue arrow has absolutey nothing to do with it.

Heheh, IF, ater all the suspense I think your sig is particularly appropriate to this thread.


Love the Australia day article BTW, had me giggling like an idiot. (Is there any other way to giggle?)

Well, isn't that nice. But couldn't you have done the same thing by just posting to an old message and deleting it, without all the secret "Don't post here." stuff.

Maybe that's just what you are claiming was your reason, and you really have some other more nefarious thing in mind. Perhaps we should reconvine the Warren commision to investigate this. I heard from another guy that he saw someone posting in the grassy knoll thread...

lol

I didn't want to mess up any real threads, so I made a new one specifically for my purposes. I'm gonna delete that post now and see if it deletes the whole thread or if there will be a thread with no Posts.

[Fyron]

Ok good, deleting the sole post in that thread deleted the whole thread.

Deleting the first post kills the entire thread, even if there are replies.
