HunchBluntley: Anyone else finding that, recently, the "My Posts" page seems incredibly prone to displaying
GOGbear-as-Atlas? It seems to make no difference what's going on on the site (I noticed this a week or two before the sale began), and it's not true of the front page, nor the rest of the forums (though there are always times when a certain page loads slowly for a while). I haven't been posting very much for a while, and therefore don't know exactly how long it's been a problem before now -- or if it's just my luck that it's only occurring for me.
mrkgnao: Took me a few minutes to find this "My Posts" you're referring to, as I've never used it before. Can't really see what it's for.
Anyhow, clicked on it once. Got a GOGbear-as-Atlas. So far so good.
Clicked on it a second time. Got a screen saying "Sorry, but you haven't posted in the forums recently...Back", which reminded me that I did visit it once before, many years ago, got the same ridiculous response (I'm fairly certain I posted at least half a dozen posts this week, including one earlier today), and lost interest.
Losing interest again.
It's mostly useful as a "threads with unread replies" roundup. Otherwise, one has to trawl the front page(s) of the forums (or the main "Community" page) to see these threads; I find "My (recent) posts" to be quicker.
", because that's how it actually works (and that's the reason it gave you that message -- all your recent posts were probably limited to threads in which you first posted months or years ago). This is why I mostly just use it to quickly find threads in which someone has directly replied to me since my last visit. ;)
