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.

    Is it the round key with the rubber buttons or the newer square type?

    Take it apart. It'll be obvious what's gone wrong. Usually the top of the microswitch partially detaches because the rubber buttons deform over time. It's usually possible to cobble together a fix using bits of paper etc between the rubber and the switch.

    That's just based on a few I got as trade ins back in the day.

    Main dealer is about €150 for a new key.
