Still having problems.....can't get to last page on some threads.

Same for me. Can't get to the last postings on some threads...not on all threads. I can follow some - not all - new postings because about half the time I'll get an email copy of a new posting to a thread. But when I try to go to that thread, or reply to the thread, I cannot see any postings more recent than a few days ago.
I tried making changes to the number of posts that show per page in my personal settings, but nothing changed.
What the next step?

This thread isn't listed in my Subscribed Threads but the DBS *knows* I've posted here before - it helpfully offers Restore Auto-Saved Content? as I type this.

Here's what its offering to restore:

Why does this always happen on Sunday?

The owners went surfing?

Look familiar? :confused2:

Did it ever go away? :confused3: It seems to be some sort of timing issue. The longer it takes to compose a post, the more likely it will be doubled. Whenever I have a long post I always copy/paste it to Notepad as backup before clicking Submit Reply button. That way it isn't necessary to spend time recomposing the post (PITA).
