Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    A decision on whether to abolish the leap second - the occasional, extra second added to the world's time - has been deferred.
    Experts at the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) were unable to reach a consensus, so moved the matter to a meeting in 2015.
    The US argued at the meeting that leap seconds were causing problems for communication and navigation systems.
    Can't people ever agree on anything at all!:confused:
