I encountered a very weird one last night, just after I'd made the changes, where I posted to the Suez thread in General, then the front page of General said the last post was NLUK in the afternoon, but with my avatar
I fixed it by clearing vBulletin's system cache. Let me know if you continue to see any oddness and I'll do that again, but I try to avoid doing it while the place is busy, as it has the potential to put the server under a lot of strain rebuilding everythingComment

This morning's meeting ended up running for ninety minutes, and would have gone longer except most people had to leave for another one
