                        Actually, J-Hulk explained it best. Most likely it was something moved or deleted.

                        I've noticed it before. I believe the phenomenon occurs when an adminstrator is manipulating a post, such as moving it to a different forum or performing some type of edit, or deleting something.
                        At least, that's what seemed to be the situation when it's happened to me.

                        Administrator to administrator? Big Brother? Wow, conspiracy theories abound... Confused [%-)]

                        Like most message boards, we are database driven...as a result, the database hiccups once in awhile. There's no hidden secret societies, secret handshakes, or hidden forums aside from the Admin forums which you guys don't see, stuff like templates, and the home for wayward messages, stuff that's been removed for being inappropriate.

                        I would just chalk it up to 'things happen', because we all know that computers have minds of their own, and tempers too . In the meantime, I know there's a secret passage from the armor to the aircraft forum around here somewhere!! Wink [;)]

                        When administrators post messages to each other on the Forum they are generally "hidden" from the general public and are not accessible to regular members. The most recent post was likely one of these "administrator to administrator" messages.

                        I just tried to click on the 'most recent post' for General Discussion on the forum index and the computer told me I don't have authorization to access. Is there a super secret forum that I don't know about or has FSM instituted some sort of stupid 'enhanced' membership that costs money?
