Sorry, this is a little bit of a rant. And I think I know the answer, it's Galaxy stuff. But it is a little frustrating to see some of the features I used to use personally get mucked with.

Account Library New Tag - I used to use this to track which games I had already backed up with a hardcopy. With all the recent library changes they have reset these tags several times, so now ones I've never clicked on no longer show the tag.

Topics I've Participated In - A few weeks ago they did something which randomly flagged a bunch of my threads in this category while there were no new posts. An annoyance, but then just recently they have now limited this list to everything from January to now. I very much enjoyed using this section to keep track of any updates to forum threads I had participated in.

Missing Threads - Perhaps this one is a setting of mine, I'm not sure. But certain forum threads have completely disappeared for me (eg: http://www.gog.com/forum/star_wars_dark_forces_series/dark_forces_ii_jedi_knight_enhanched_mod_installation_tutorial). All it shows for me now is "Entered search terms did not match any post contents in this topic.


I know there is going to be some threshing as they try to get Galaxy integrated, but a little heads up on changes would be nice.

Boilpoint:
everything that hasnt been posted in this year has been archived - a knock on effect was pretty much all favourited threads appearing as if there was a new post.

archive is here: http://www.gog.com/forum/general_archive (also under "community" tab).

as to the weird thing with missing subforum threads - they are still there. seems if they've been stickied, you can only access the stickied version through the subforum. havent had it with any other type of thread.

Don't know what's going on with your linked thread. That's bizarre. If you access it specifying a page, it seems to work...

In My Settings, what is the setting for clicking on a thread? Take you to first page or take you to last page?

Last page. Very interesting, so when I change it to first page like you suggest it works fine. Perhaps the issue is there was an extra page that was deleted because of a deleted post, and now the forums get confused?

Last post seems to be post 73 which is page 2. Trying to go to page 3 also results in "entered search terms did not match any post contents". Seems that the thread is incorrectly marked as having more pages than it does, thus the problems

P.S. I have the forum set to 50 posts per page, so numbers may vary.
When I go to http://www.gog.com/forum/star_wars_dark_forces_series/dark_forces_ii_jedi_knight_enhanched_mod_installation_tutorial and get the '"" returned no posts' page, above and below it has
Community > General discussion > Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight - Enhanched MOD (installation tutorial)
even though 'General Discussion' actually links to http://www.gog.com/forum/star_wars_dark_forces_series

I had the same issue, my thread stayed like this for days until someone posted which seemed to fix it...

There have been some odd bugs with the forums lately:

Someone stole the search function!
Look to the bottom right, next to "New post" or "new topic".
