Hey Lego,

I was posting in this thread here: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/1020/301952.page#4760322 (linked to my post)

Before I hit the quick reply button, the site warned me that I was posting in a thread that had not been posted in for 3 months, and that I might be necro'ing the thread. If you look at Iflana's post (immediately above mine) it was posted on August 3rd (a little more than 1 month ago). Is the script acting buggy, or does it also look at the page the thread is currently sitting on? (i.e. x thread is 10 pages back from the first page because that section of the site moves really fast)

There is a known bug which is very rare but can cause the necro warning to pop up on any post. It automatically fixes itself and occurs maybe once every 2 months, so you are very lucky to have found it

Is that along the same lines as the thing which tells you that you have to many exclamation marks in one post? Because i've been told that a few times even though i might only have 1 in a post.

The exclamation mark one should hopefully be fixed now.
