It comes and goes, no big issue really, just wanted to give a heads up. Figured you would enjoy the challenge of solving it. | ||

It seems it was simply a server / mysql hiccup. It happens when the search function is being hammered. Speaking of that, the search function needs to be optimized as it locks the posts table every time someone makes intensive searches. I think what happened was, someone was making a very broad search on a generic word / term. It locks up the posts table while you were viewing the top poster page. When a table is being locked, the forums can not fetch those necessary info to display the top posters. Though, it seems like a plausible explanation, I can't help but question why it happened to just you and APX.. *cue the X-File tune..* |

In the previous times I've seen it, it's always people with higher daily post counts. Don't know if that helps or not. | ||

It works now, with the 2 top posters having way more posts. It comes and goes, no idea why. | ||
