3. "RE: If You Find a Broken Thread"
In response to message #2

I think that's just because all the threads currently in it were moved there from another board, and DCF doesn't juggle the timestamps properly when that happens. The topics that have had traffic since the move are ordered correctly.

Although that said,

That's actually a different Stupid DCF Trick. Jeanne created a new thread under the TLOK board about the upcoming start date for the third season of the Legend of Korra TV show yesterday, but I moved it to Source Material because it's not really germane to Legacy. DCF doesn't know to update the lobby listings when that happens.

Anyway, nothing to worry about - both of these behaviors are known DCF quirks that long predate the recent troubles. "Broken as designed," as we used to say of the stupid balance tweaks in City of Heroes. :)
