Hi @Lincoln

I just noticed that one of the topics does not come up in the Discussions (ie new discussions) list

Is emptiness holy

Maybe it's a technical glitch so just FYI

It came up now, please scrap this thread.

I could not delete it for some reason :D

Danke.

Actually, Lincoln, I think the date order or time stamp is wrong because it does not bring up the most recently posted to threads.

So the first post was right.

It was put in Buddhism for Beginners category. I know why, lol.

Because that's the default forum. If you want it to go elsewhere, you need to pre-select the forum destination at the time you decide to begin a new thread, or go to that section first and begin a new discussion there.

No no, it's in the proper place.

Floating_Abu

The recent threads seem to be popping up again in order, maybe it was just a temporary glitch

Thanks,
Abu

If a discussion is sunk, it will stop coming to the top of the list. Otherwise, they should always be in order by most recent comment.

Yes, it really did happen because I double checked -- but when I logged out and in again, the glitch was gone.
Anyway if it happens again I'll let you know, otherwise I'll say Dorothy made me do it! :)

Thanks,
Abu

@Lincoln / @federica

Found it again -- this topich which I just responded to does not come up to the top of the list http://newbuddhist.com/discussion/15670/is-emptiness-holy#Item_55

http://newbuddhist.com/discussions

So maybe the software has a minor glitch. It's no big deal but I'm just reporting it so you guys know this can happen

Cheerio,
Abu

What makes a topic get sunk? a particular rate of postings?

federica

It depends.

ozen

That's what I thought.

Floating_Abu

O I see, I suspected that (even before Lincoln's post) -- but I thought I should report it in case it was a genuine technical glitch and didn't think you guys would really do something like that. I guess I should have trusted my intuition :) Understood.

Thanks Jason for the clarification.
