My own posts are being marked as "New"... and other weirdness

Hey boards,

Something weird is happening... my own posts are being marked on my screen as "New." See below for example.



I saw in your exorcism post that you were unable to embed a YouTube video, and a "received" PM to a friend was strangely deleted when the recipient did not delete it. It is now no longer in my Sent Box, either.

Something strange is afoot.

Some videos simply won't embed. I don't think it's a forum thing. Regarding your posts being marked as new, not sure about that one. Does it happen every time you post?

No, sir. It just started this morning. Also just noticed that after reading a post marked as "new" on a thread, when I come back to the forum a few minutes later, that same post is marked as "new" again.

Also, the weird deleted PM thing just happened this morning as well.

Maybe this is retribution from above for you posting that gay exorcism.

LOL.

The only thing I can think to do is go have a few drinks for happy hour after work. Hopefully that will solve everything. I'll get on this and we'll see if that fixes anything.

Excellent suggestion... just remember I'm two hours behind you all, so I have a ways to go yet.



Thanks for looking into it... Obviously it's not a huge deal, just annoying. Although the disappearing PM is worrisome.
