Re^4: Invalid ID in reply notificationby kcott (Archbishop) |

G'day Rolf, The first part of your message explains the [no such node, ID 11139417]. Thanks for that. "Someone purged the whole node, such that the title can't be resolved anymore." Can the purge process, whether automated or manual, include a first step of sending a message that indicates that purging will occur. That would provide an explanation of why the message changed from "node title" to "no such node, ID node-id" and the subsequent disappearance of the reply. What the monk actually sees (message modification or reply disappearance) will obviously change depending on the time the message and/or thread is accessed. To give an idea of what I believe the series of steps were in my case (all relative to my timezone):
I thought that some error may have occurred, e.g. a DB issue, and reported the (apparent) problem. If I see something similar again, I might guess this is a purging issue and just move on; however, that could mean a real error goes unreported — how would I tell the difference? In the future, others might experience exactly the same thing. Finally, just to be clear, I do not have a problem with purging posts from known trolls. I do have a problem with no general notification that purging was something that was to be introduced; and also that I received no specific notification that a reply to me had been purged. — Ken
