Delete my sales threads please!
« on: August 03, 2016, 09:36:21 AM »
Hello mods,

All three of my sales threads are completely broken/will not load due to some arcane coding weirdness. This means I can't even get in to edit them and delete them myself! Please could you lock & sink them, or delete them completely if possible? I don't want to post another thread when I have this trail of zombies coming up on the search. Any thread currently by me in the Sales area can be popped.

Because of the code problems would it be alright to leave a list of what I am selling in text format, and link to a Google Doc with the information and pictures? I can't get anything to work properly for me!

Ha! XD Well that's good at least - I have to hope it doesn't disappoint if it ever works! Haven't heard back from the mods yet for this..

Dusky, I am not sure what has happened but I am actually not able to access the Sales posts you are refering to. I keep getting an error every time I try. I can find every post you have made elsewhere on the boards but every time I search Sales nothing. I am assuming one of the threads you are refering to is that linked in your signature?

Do you have a screen grab of what is happening when you try to edit them?

Have they been posted on within the last 3 months? They auto lock after this period so you should not be able to edit them at all and no one would be able to pop them back up if they are older.

Can you give me the actual title of the thread? Also..apologies...have you ever had a username change?

Hi Hath!

I've been around for years, no username changes at all - the gender icon changed, but hey that's kind of moot. Here's what I've got so far:

Thread 1:
G1-G4 Ponies, Accessories and more - Collection Downsize 22/07 (UK)
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,375961.0.html

Thread 2:
Dusky's sales G1-G4 Ponies and Accessories (Available - Photo upload is WIP)
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,380909.0.html

Both return HTTP 500 error messages and cannot load, can you delete them from the overall forum page or do you have to go into them to alter their status? Both are on page 3 of the For Sale - for Auction forum when you sort by Started By.

Neither are older than 3 months, it looks like thread 3 (also broken) has been removed/locked/exploded as per needed. I can link you to the GDOC of the BB code I was using to build this via personal message if that'd help.

A million, a squillion times we would never normally delete threads...but there was something seriously messed up with those posts. Because of them I was getting error messages when looking at everything from your post count to following the link to show everything posted by you :( I have no clue what had caused it. I have now actually deleted them as locking them did not help. Now everything on your profile is working again.

Were the threads crazy heavy with pictures by any chance?

I think I have a Doom Field...

There were blank IMG tags with blank URL links in the code, ready to have stuff pasted into them from photobucket as I assigned photos to each pony. I assumed that dead links / empty tags would not try to load at all, is that the case?

Thank you for deleting them at any rate, I'll do a text-based post with an album link for now!

No problem :) It really was an odd one! Glad we could get it fixed for you eventually.
