The "last updated" column on the Forum page, not always accurate!

Post by tpollauf »

Has anyone else happen to notice that from time to time (once/twice a week recently) there will be an entry under the "last updated" column showing one of us posting recently (say TODAY). Then when you click that person who supposedly posted today, it goes to that post and is NOT today, but a few days ago! I routinely scan through the main forum section just to see the latest posts and every now & then, a post is incorrectly dated. Ironically, just last month, it showed ME as posting a recent reply to a thread and I never did! It seems to be random and not always the same person. This is more of a nuisance and not a big deal BUT I feel it should be addressed and possibly corrected.

That usually happens when someone deletes their post or votes in a poll (altezza thread...)

If someone deleted their post it usually shows in the list as just a timestamp instead of a timestamp and a user. Additionally if a moderator edits the thread it goes to in the list of recent threads as well.
