I have the new private message thing on and I don't have a new message.
I even deleted all the messages and still it is there.

Nvm I logged out and back in and it fixed itself.

Lego sure is fast these days.

Did a new release this morning (autologin now works on multiple machines) so that might have made the hiccup. logout and login is exactly how to fix the one off problem though.

Sweet! Thanks for the multi-login fix, lego!

I dunno if this is related, but I just posted on a thread and it froze my computer when I pressed 'submit'. It didn't exactly 'freeze' it was just thinking for a very long time and the little bar wasn't moving. So I opened a new tab and logged back on dakka while the old one was still 'thinking', and saw that the post had been made. This was just a couple of minutes ago. I don't know if that is helpful to know or not, but it's the first time I ever was logged in twice so I thought whoever manages that stuff (Lego?) might like to know.

You're not the only one who's had this kind of occurance.

Wow. I just sent a PM to Vikingscott, (after quoting a previous message I'd sent him that he hadn't replied to - not sure whether he got it back then) and I changed the recipients name from mine (it automatically does that when you quote a PM, IDK why) to Vikingscott. After I sent the message, I received it. I tried again twice, but I received the message again both times. I'm going to try and send the PM directly via the little PM button on his description page. Will edit depending on what happens.

^ I've never had this problem before, BTW.

There's a little bit of unrelated slowdown this weekend as I'm testing some backup stuff. Will probably continue for a week or so and then it will be back to normal.

This is Awesome, thanks! It's one of the things that's always annoyed me the very most when checking Dakka on my phone or other computer.

Aww, now how will I resist reading Dakka instead of doing housework...

Lego, I think you just set me up to get in lots of trouble with the GF
