New person here, and had a few problems getting registered, but seems to be solved now. I searched for a subject (Pinball) and got the listings, but everytime I press the reply button, I get taken to the forum listings (Forum Header) instead of the editor. It has to be because of the google search, as I can post a thread. Any idea's? Thanks

Just a check. It seems to only happen from selecting a page using the search, as you can tell, works fine normally. :)

Weird behavior most likely of threads that are far too old to reply to anymore.

As Mike says, it's probably because the threads have passed the deadline for 'retirement' and have been semi-locked. I've prepared a fix for the fact that there's no error message, but I'm actually away on holiday at the moment so I have to wait for someone else on the dev team to apply it.

If you want a thread "waking up," you can ask the forum's moderator to reawaken it for you; but to be honest, you're probably better off starting a new thread and linking to the old one(s).

Nah, it's okay. Was just a thread on pinball physics I could have answered, but no one has talked about it since. No worries.

Thanks
