    The post count works fine, I just tested it.

    As for the threads, it's probably happening because they pressed "New Post" instead of "Post reply"

    The server kept freezing earlier, several times when people had just clicked "Submit New Thread". The record is inserted into the thread table, but then the freeze happens and you get no associated posts in the post table. So the thread shows up in the forum display, but of course there are no posts to show once you open that thread.

    People then respond to the postless-threads, making their reply look like the first post

    The layman's term for this would be "the database farted"

    no, the layman's term would be the server farted, causing the database not to receive the required info

    No, the laymans term would be the hamster farted, stopped running in its wheel, and the server lost power

    ... and I'd always thought that was the technical terminology.

    Because the database keeps farting and Pix and Parksie are wrong, and Mendhak is always right and that's why. Thank you.

    Jesus Lvz you

    I know. It's been happening a lot because the server has been freezing like a naked bloke's balls in the arctic.

    Couple of hours ago you'd be lucky to open a forum in ten minutes.
