Last post not recognised
I replied to this thread in the Civ 2 scenario forum, and I get one of those black dots on the forum icon, but it doesn't register me as being the last poster.
Can anyone explain what has happened here please?

Load-reducing measures on the server. It automatically stops doing certain updates when there is a heavy load.

I notice it more when I'm impatient and back/refresh instead of waiting for the server to finish. Of course, I only do this when there's a heavy load, so...

Skanky did you just copy that post from the last time this was asked?

That would require searching for the previous thread first. If this thread proves anything, no-one can be bothered doing that.

I think it's just a mantra that we've been told over and over and it stuck in Skanky's head.
 ACK!

But is it true? 
Maybe "the old lie" is trotted out time and again to scare children and foolhardy posters. It is not as scary, however, as the terrible truth!

Yes it's all a conspiracy to hide the fact that you posted last.
