Display issue in game forum

[Shabdez]

When I check my own content and click on the Go-to-last-post link of the UPDATED Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch, I get the first post of the last page instead of the last. And when I try to scroll down, the view jumps back to top after a second or two. This does not happen with any other game forum or when I go to the UUFO3 forum via the game forum link (marked as "view results"). What's going on?

 

EDIT: Next to the mod name in the title, there usually is a picture with a silhouette (obviously the avatar of the site bot). Not so for UUFO3 if I use the go to last post link. There is an empty frame with a link called "Photo". Maybe that's the issue.

I'm glad to see someone else has this problem. I thought it was only me. There are times when I cannot access the last post and get locked on the next to last page. I cannot move forward even by using the navigation buttons at the top or bottom of the page. There are also times when the page will continuously reload and i have to use the page stop loading button. This only happens with the Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch forum page and not the mod comments page.

@M48A5, thanks for confirming this bug.

 

As a workaround, don't use the last post link. Instead click the mod name which will send you to the very first post of the forum thread (the one created by site bot), from there go to last page and scroll down. That works on my end.

You shouldn't really be trying to view mod page comment threads on the forum. This has always been a bit iffy. When a new comment is posted on the site it can take a few hours to show up on the forum and until it does, you get that weird loop. Each time something like this comes up I inch closer to simply not allowing users to read the mod page comments on the forum anymore. The main reason it's still a thing is because you can't search the thread from the website side.

In the eleven years that I have been a member, the only page this happened with is the Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch and only since you started making changes to the site. There has never been anything "iffy" about accessing and commenting on any page from either the forum side or the mod side until the recent "upgrades". I constantly use "My Content" to keep track of where I've posted and if there were any replies. If you remove the ability to read mod comments from the forum side, you might as well do away with the forums altogether. Then you can say good-bye to a lot of members.
