    Posts not appearing, but getting email notifications?

    This is weird, and it's happened twice now...

    I receive an email notification that a user has replied to a thread I have participated in, but when I go to the thread there is no post from that user!

    This has just happened right now so I can point to an instance of it (while it's present):

    The thread is this one and here is the email I received:

    Hello Paul Adams,

    Agent has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - Real Life Forum Meetings..... - in the General Discussion and Banter forum of HEXUS.net Forums.

    This thread is located at:
    http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.p...5&goto=newpost

    Here is the message that has just been posted:
    ***************
    Would respond to both, prefer my real name though.
    ***************


    There may be other replies also, but you will not receive any more notifications until you visit the forum again.

    Yours,
    HEXUS.net Forums team
    But when I view the post I can't see anything past Stoo's response (#19) regardless of how many times I refresh or whether I use a proxy or not.

    The time stamp on the email is 14:39 (server time is fast still), but the forum index shows Stoo's response as the latest at 14:34 still (at the time of typing this it has been bumped down to 3rd in the list).

    Any clues as to what the hell is going on? I'm baffled!

    Does anyone see Agent's reply?

    Ah, thank God for that!

    Tricksy, those mods!

    I was trying to figure out if I had a weird caching problem, or it was something to do with my posts/page viewing settings *shake fist*
