Breja: I think you may want to elaborate.
I made a giveaway post, which I have in my favorites, but does not show up in the "General Discussion " forum.

Then I made a test post which also is not here.

The 2nd one seems to be visible for others.

Wow, now the first one shows up. LetÄs see if the other post from 20 minutes ago makes it's way to visibilty too.

Ah thanks to all. I know that the forum has some bugs, but as the "read much" post did not show up after 20 min I thought something may be wrong.

No prob. :)

I've had my single posts in existing threads delay showing up for several minutes or more, usually if a thread has heavy traffic like a big game release or something.

Well that is odd. I will head for my bed now and see if it shows up normally tomorrow. Thanks to you all for helping out and a good night.

MaGo72's posts have probably been hit by down reppers and/or mark this post as spam abusers. If topic is downrepped (enough people press the minus next to rate this post) enough it will be marked as read for everyone and iirc, you are no longer informed new posts made to it. If enough people downrep and also use the mark this post as spam (available after negatively rating the post), post is deleted and in case if the post is the one starting the topic, the entire topic gets deleted automatically by antispam system.

Edit: or the GOG forums decided to be wonky... more than usual that is ;-p

Well, I can see the threads just fine, at least now. I guess it was some forum hickup. It also sometimes happens to me, that after making a post I can't see it in a thread and it takes it's sweet time to appear. Probably something similar happened here.

See my edit. In addition, I can see both your topics fine. Are you sure they're not pinned under Favourite topics and received replies in top of the forum for you? They have not been downrepped at least (such post will have "low rated" in top right corner).

Giveaways usually don't get hit by downreppers (at least no until they find out they did not win) and people tend to up rate giveaway posts so downrepper has to work hard to get them downrepped enough to point of being low rated.

I did not see it, had several tabs open, pinned it and unpinned it as favorite - it took some time to show up. As did my first "test" post

GOG forums work in mysterious ways. You'll get used to it, eventually. It helps if do as the "leave your sanity behind" sign at the entrance says as you log in to GOG asylum. ;-p
