Thread doesn't show?

Why doesn't my recently posted thread (defensive/sensitive) not show?

Have I been censored?

Well, that would be pretty poor if you were censored. It is most likely a technical issue. Perhaps someone will resolve it.

Ahhh see, that's why you're an instructor, you see without being seen!

I can now if I click on the arrows, and not the thread Title.

How strange!

I think it's to do with a problem with the forum rendering the hyperlink, although I can't for the life of me guess what causes it.

I've had it before with things like JK's Red Sea Trip thread, and I guessed (probably incorrectly) that it would be down to a thread being renamed forcing the link to change.

I think that's probably incorrect.

Anyway, the reason it doesn't seem to work is that the hyperlinked text points to:

Code:

http://direxplorers.com/non-diving-posts/6485-defensive-sensi.html

whereas if I navigate to your post through the Forum itself I get:

Code:

http://www.direxplorers.com/non-diving-posts/6485-defensive-sensitive-good-bad.html

The one thing that's confusing me is that clicking on the arrow (not something I usually do), points to:

Code:

http://direxplorers.com/non-diving-posts/6485-defensive-sensi-last-post.html

Which baffles me, as I was under the impression that that layout would point to the same place as the first URL and therefore should fail.

Perhaps it's caused by a problem the Forum software has with thread titles that have long words that aren't space-separated?

*shrug* Someone with more knowledge of it hopefully has some other ideas.
