Bad link?

Why does this link come up blank for me?EvC Forum: Bacterial flagellum

Would you believe it's because the sacred text of this thread can only be seen by true believers?Not buying that one, huh.How about that the comments in this thread are so heinous that even the server blushes and cannot repeat them?Not buying that one, either?How about that its a bug! I bet you'll buy that one.The next step after finding a bug, of course, is to fix it. Nah, just kidding. The next step is to cast blame. I wrote the code, but the bug would have already been found if several years ago Moose hadn't established a policy of not deleting messages, so it's Moose's fault. This thread is one of the very few that have some deleted messages.I'll work a fix for this bug into the upcoming release. In the meantime you can still read the thread beginning with the second page, Message 26. You won't be able to access page 1 of the thread until I fix the bug.

which is the same as the Rat's link and results in the same message free page display.EvC Forum: What would we think if Percy..... results in a "Message 2 of thread of forum Intelligent Design does not exist. Please click your back button and try again." message.Adminnemooseus

The first message I can see is message 31. I am set for 20 messages per page.Maybe I could see more if I set to 1 message per page.

For what little it's worth, if you change your profile settings to 5 messages per page, you can also get messages 21-25.AdminnemooseusAdded by edit: I thought I tried and failed to get back before message 21. I checked again, and I too now can get back to message 16.This message has been edited by Adminnemooseus, 01-06-2006 10:23 AM

There is no setting for 1 message per page. The smallest I could set was 5. With that setting, page 2 of the thread begins with message 16, which I could see at that 5 messages per page setting.

The thread isn't damaged, it's just a display bug easily fixed. All the messages are still there. See my Message 2.
