It may happen that you run across a thread that is experiencing one of the failure states we saw in last week's difficulties. The more severe of the two (duplicated subject with "-1" replies showing) is more obvious both from the forum side and the backend, but the other one doesn't really manifest itself until someone tries to read the root post of a thread. If you click a thread from the topic list of a forum and get a page that's empty except for the header, don't panic; back up and try "[View All]" if available. (I haven't seen this happen to a thread that doesn't have enough replies to make that visible; possibly it only happens to "viewmode=threaded".)Also, if this happens, you could help us out a bit by checking here to see if it's been reported, and if not, posting the URL to the affected thread, so that we can investigate and hopefully fix it up.
