Locked thread icon does not appear in My Replies list in (updated) Firefox

By GW Swicord on March 15, 2010 2:00:36 PM from Elemental Forums Elemental Forums

Thread looked open from My Replies list, but the main lists show the lock icon. Thread itself is definitely locked.

Not sure if it's related but I've had the latest Firefox crash on me 5 times within a day. I went back to 3.5.8 and no problems or crashes now.

I mostly use FF for just the GC2 & Elemental forums and I don't have any optional plug-ins. I've never had an FF session crash.

It appears the same way in IE, Safari and Chrome.  I suspect it is just a feature of Stardock.

As for Firefox, I had problems with 3.6 when I first downloaded it.  But they seem to have subsided, so I am still using it.

I admit that there's a degree of eye-of-the-beholder in the bug-vs-feature distinction, but pray tell how is it helpful in any way to hide the locked status of a thread just because I'm seeing it on a My Replies list?

I can see ranking it minimum severity, minimum priority, but it still seems like a bug to me...

hey!  I am just a messenger like you - and a network engineer, not a software one.  I have no clue what goes on in the minds of software engineers.

This will be fixed in the next forum update (looking at end of next week, if not earlier, for next update).
