Question Strange Error Message - Invalid Thread Specified?

Twice this morning when I've posted to the "next flyertalker to post..." thread I've gotten the following error message:

Invalid Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the webmaster


My posts have still gone through.

But it let you through when you tried again, right? Have you tried clearing out your browser's temporary internet files/cache and restarting your browser?

I'll check on the vBB forums to see if there's a bug report about it.

All in the same forum, or in different ones?

First thing I did after it happened a few times was clear out all the browser temp garbage and restart.

"let me through when you tried again"
Hmmmm.... when it happens again I'll see what happens if I refresh. Like I said, the post still goes through, I just have to click through the menus to get back tot he forum/thread.

It happens intermittently, and it does not appear to be tied to any specific fora.

I'm thinking it could be because I had FT open in 2 windows. Could that have been causing a conflict of some kind?

It could have something to do with cookies and timestamps not synching up between the two windows, but I doubt that would cause your error message.

I have a tech request in with vBB about it. It appears that your error message is turning out to be a fairly common one, as other vBB owners are mentioning it on their board.

Sounds like a known bug then.

Haven't seen it happen since my last post here yesterday. Temporary gremlins.
