Ophelium: So, if I receive a forum reply in a thread that has been deleted, does the purple dot saying I have one ever go away?

Good heavens, a living blue! Why, I was sure they were but a myth!

drmike: First five posts come up for me when I dropped the url into google and clicked on the cached link.

The rest may show up in a day or so. Takes a bit for data to get from the bots to the indexers to the public facing computers. Or at least that's what I;ve discovered over the years.
I'll check it tomorrow then. I'm pretty sure it's needless snark :P

I;d link to the cached version of it but 1) the url is a mess and 2) the caching servers are location specific and may not work for folks.

Just drop the url into the search. Should come right up. There will be a drop down menu to the right and down under the link where one of the options will be Cached. Pick that.

And it is still (or again) unsolved. I have a purple dot stuck on 'Forum replies' again, no matter whether there are replies or not.

And yes, it stays even if I deactivate both Adalia's Fundamentals and Barefoot's Essentials and reload the page. So the problem is on the GOG side of the forum.

Well, if no-one else will - i'd suggest what you're seeing is the red shift, and in fact it's a Pale blue one

I don't think so. My screen isn't moving away THAT fast from me and it's also not so big as to cause a gravitational red shift!

Thanks. I've been bothered by the same dot lately. The instructions removed it.
