Blank last pages
Sometimes, the last page of a forum topic (as linked to by the index) says "No posts exist for this topic" or something similar. Is this a known bug?
yeah, forum eats 'em or something. Post a couple more posts and they'll show.
I think that's what it was anyways. I read it a while ago so I may be wrong.

I always thought it was from people who deleted their posts.
Yes, Der is right. When a post is deleted it leaves a 'ghost' and pushes the boards count up. So that the board believes that there's another post, and since it creates a new page every 19(?) posts, you get a new page created early. Ahhh well, <shrugs>

20, just the first page only has 19 replies
And the ghosts (except of multi posts, where only the first one counts for anything from my observations{although I could be wrong}) are cumulative.

It could be the forum makeing room for more post.

No, Salusa has already explained that the posts when deleted leave ghosts, and that they are cumulative.
The only thing that I'm not sure aout, is that it *seems* like multi posts do not leave ghosts when deleted.

I don't know, it's just what I've heard. I think that if anyone would know, it'd be Peng-Pau or Rapid Dr3am.
