    It seems that the last post column is not being updated with the correct last poster, for at least some threads

    It seems to happen for forums too, the last poster viewed in the top-menu/navbar.

    Example thread here. If you view the FS Comp & H/W forum (currently page 2) you will see that this thread has gline as the last poster, however when you view the thread you see it was actually another poster who posted last.


    Any reasons for this, or is it a bug?

    I think this came up before and it was attributed to the delay between a poster starting their reply and hitting the submit button.

    ie, gline started his reply before the last poster, but the other poster finished before him, or vice versa. I'm not sure of the specifics.
