Suddenly many posts in the forum are hidden for me and 10 minutes before they were okay. What's the reason? GOG, can you fix it?
Do you have the settings enabled to hide posts that are low rated?
because for me lot's of threads are shown greyed out (as if low rated), while others that actually are low rated are shown normally.
I think the forum is confused with the rating system ;-)

Just confirming this is also an issue for me. Very suddenly, almost all posts show up as greyed out, even ones that would never be below threshold, like the Star Trek announcement. Once a post within one of the mistakenly greyed out threads is viewed, it appears to "reset" and the threshold error seems to go away for that specific thread.

EDIT - Now it appears that just viewing a thread does not actually fix the problem long term. This thread is one that continues to appear as low-rated or already read (not sure which it really is), despite it not being low-rated and obviously recieving new posts.

Check your settings. Usually you can change that here: http://www.gog.com/forum/mysettings

I unchecked the checkbox and everything is fine now. However I didn't change anything and the site behavior changed. Also, half the posts were hidden - I hope you guys don't give negative ratings to every second post...

The ratings of the posts did not change or we would be seeing the "low" rated in the topics. Like I said the forum is confused ;-)
I've passed this issue on to our web team - we'll see if they find a quick fix for it or if it's a bigger issue to deal with.

Thanks :-)

*hopes for quick solution* This is sure irritating.
Yup. I already read this thread (and many others) even when I never visited it and they are not downrated. On the other hand I think the downvoted thread asking for free game wasn't greyed out.
Meanwhile on gog's web team office...
This is Galaxy's fault, I just know it. :P

Isn't everything Galaxys fault for the moment? :P
The forums got slow, throw an Error 500 page half the time I'm trying to open a thread. Somebody overloaded the scripts and they glitched out, it seems. Or am I the only person with these issues?

Kind of reminds me of how games in the catalogue sometimes stop showing the "owned" tag during sales... :/

Yes, everything went to hell this afternoon. You should be sure to have some coffee for the web dev team, they're gonna need a lot this night :)

Nope, that's been my experience all day long today.
