Strange Topic Reply Notification |
|
|
Received a TRN in my mailbox saying (snipped from pine):
"Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2006 19:06:05 -0700
From: admin@electro-music.com
To: Undisclosed-recipients: ;
Subject: Topic Reply Notification - electro-music New Year's Eve Party
Hello,
You are receiving this email because you are watching the topic,
"electro-music New Year's Eve Party" at electro-music.com. This topic has
received a reply since your last visit. You can use the following link to
view the replies made, no more notifications will be sent until you visit
the topic.
http://electro-music.com/forum/post-66936.html#66936
If you no longer wish to watch this topic you can either click the "Stop
watching this topic link" found at the bottom of the topic above, or by
[...]"
...but the link in the email didn't work (got "The topic or post you requested does not exist"), and there were no new posts under http://electro-music.com/forum/topic-8969.html either - still ends with Mohoyo's "Thanks FKY!" from jan 15.
Something wrong

It is possible that someone posted a message to that topic. When they did that the system sent you a notification email message. Then perhaps they deleted the message.
If this was happening frequently, then I'd suspect some kind of software bug, but if it was a once in the blue event then maybe the abovementioned explaination is appropriate. _________________ --Howard

...this happens to me fairly frequently (a couple of times a month, i think). i got one tonight re: "pumped by preamps", and following the link leads to "this topic does not exist".
i also don't always get these notices when i think i should.

A new member posted to the Pumped thread and then soon after deleted his post and started a new topic instead.

ahhh, it is. i searched for "pump" "pre" "amp", but it's "pumped" and "amps", so the search returned no result. in addition, the link i recieved as a notification says there is no such topic...perhaps these should point to the topic in general rather than the specific post?

Maybe so, but in a large topic it is felt that the link should be to the new posts - the reason for the email. '
Some PHPBB forums do not allow users to delete posts. Maybe this is one reason. Some don't even allow users to edit posts. Early on, I made the decision to be more trusting and open. I guess an occational inaccurate message is the price to pay for this.
I did check the email message in question. I received it too. When you click on the link to the post:
http://electro-music.com/forum/post-68120.html#68120
EDIT: The error message says the topic or post doesn't exist. _________________ --Howard
