Velvet Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Sometimes when I check my pm's the machine doesn't register that I've read them, and for an indeterminant time it will tell me I still have unread messages when I don't.Why does jambands.ca lie to me?

bradm Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 It lies to you because you mistakenly put an apostrophe in the name of the band "The John Henrys". Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms.Huxtable Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Are you using your "Back" button after you read your PM? If so stop it. Start using the "Index" button instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 I get the same problem as Velvet. Doesn't seem to make a difference whether I refresh, using the menus to navigate, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Nope, I use the index button. For example, it's been saying that I have 3 unread messages for two or three days now, despite me logging in and out on two different computers and multiple refreshes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexis Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 you didn't send me one and this problem has only happened since the last change in format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 there are some fixes coming that should fix the notification.Wehn I know that I've got no PM's and the pm thing is flashing, I go to the pm page and it's usually not flashing then.If I've just read all of my pm's and I'm on the PM page and it's flashing, I hit refresh and it goes away.That's all I can think of for a work around for now.

Douglas Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 i've really come to enjoy the random nature of the pm indicator...me too.Sometimes I let it flash for days...imagining that I actually have a new PM! And then I send myself a PM, click on the flashing envelope, and BAM! There's a new PM and I'm not too disappointed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_rawk Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Douglas, I love the new avatar!Different jambands.ca tech question -- what is up with the flaky quotes? Seems that if you have a post with more than a few quotes in it, they don't work and you just end up with the ugly text tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 do you mean multiple nested quotes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_rawk Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Nope, not nested. Just straight up sequential. It seems to happen sporadically ... I did a search for an example (was hard to pin one down) and here is a demonstration:Post 291642It *seems* to mostly happen if there are more than a few quotes in a post. Has been happening to me in PMs lately.*shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
