Lines from postings appearing as if part of heading? Just happened to me again.

It is annoying even more so because of spoilers. I noticed one earlier about Coronation Street which gave part of the plot away. It would be ok for people avoiding the thread but they can't help reading the second line of the "heading"

It´s driving me mad because I have no idea what the original post was about unless I open it.
Also, a quick question.
Is the help clinic still operating because I still have the link at the top of every page. I don´t want to use it, but would just like to know.

Wisechild - if you click on the 'Help Clinc' header, it gives a summary of the research boards and advise what to post where. You've probably already tried that - lol

Apparently, threads that were posted on it during it's short life still exist somewhere or other, and the original contributers/posters can find them under the 'My thread participation' tool!

And it is odd about the lines from postings - which seem to change. Not sure if they show extracts from the originators latest post, or not. It seems that way with some of the longer threads. Most odd.

Still have the same problem with lines from posts appearing, rather than the original.
Do you think it will go back to normal when the snowflake melts?
