    New Posts showing not new posts....?

    Is anyone else noticing this? When I click on "New Posts", it shows the posts that have recently been made... most of the time. Sometimes it is showing a thread that hasn't been posted in for a very long time (ex. that unregistered posts thread, the hottest chick thread), then people post in it (the unregistered posts thread) and it gets closed because it's so old. I noticed the post that bumped that thread was titled "Weird" and then the post was something about how it was appearing on the front page.

    I hope this doesn't become a common thing.

    I'm sure stuff like the Now playing thread is brought up now and again by Mods to keep it alive since its so well known.

    Yesterday threads kept appearing on the front page for no apparent reason - no poll or anything. One was over a year old. ("File Sharing questionnaire" or something along with a couple of others.)
    Havn't noticed it before or since yesterday.

    The "hottest chick" thread was a poll, it just means someone voted.

    The other, "unregistered posts" thread was actually woke up by a member who mistakenly replied to it. When they realized the error, they removed their post. The thread was already on the "new posts" list by then.

    The "questionaire thread" was woke up by ☼Sph!nX☼ when he decided to take the quiz.

    The posts for people were sorted backwards for a brief period earlier. I'm assuming there have been some database adjustments? It all seems fine now but I'm not trying real hard to find problems.
