This one for @myLotBugs:
Explore / Interesting occasionally throws up almost-duplicates, like the two in the screenshot attached... Only difference I can see are the tags @poehere has applied to one of the duplicates.
It has been like that most of the day.
Bug or Broken?

It is something I am seeing in the "Explore", "Interesting" section.
Aimed at @myLotBugs, not really anyone else - safe to ignore.

@pgntwo What is this about? Is myLotbugs another writing site? Since you commented in my post that you prefer to call period - - full stop - - my comprehension is cascading to mediocrity!

@antonbunot No problem - you don't ask, you don't learn!

MyLotBugs is a user here, an admin, who likes (maybe that is too strong a description?) to be kept apprised of any general operating weirdness experienced by myLot users during the course of normal myLot activities. A Private Message to MyLotBugs would have been less noticeable, but would have meant I could not attach a screenshot showing the problem I was describing... No need for concern!

not sure how the duplication has occurred - hopefully it'll get sorted out alright soon

That happened to me once. I got an error when I tried to publish so I started all over again and it worked the second time. Only problem is there were two of the same so I hastily deleted one of them

That's weird... Thanks for the heads up. It's been added to the bugs list for a future upgrade.

@mylotbugs : Here's another gotcha for you, different bug entirely: a post from 2006 that is showing in my @mentions list, when it does not mention me. Oddly, it shows wrongly as being a post by @jabouk, and it shows my location details (not hers or the original author's, and is clearly incorrect on several levels...).
The original post is www mylot com/post/258596/does-anyone-really-like-there-job
Index corruption somewhere?

Oh, and why not allow image uploads to private messages?

You got some very interesting responses on this one, at least, @pgn !
Take the money from them and run! It's free!

@pgntwo I am sorry I don't work here for this company. I think this actually isn['t a post but a PM to the staff to help you out. I don't know what to say. If I knew this software better maybe I could help you out. I am only here about a month or so and just picked up a little knowledge from the other members who have been here longer.Maybe you should ry and direct this to owlwing he knows this software and site so well. Send him a PM and ask him for help.

Now I understand. This is in explorer and when you bring it up it shows you interesting. this section is based on your tags. Now if you have a lot of tags on certain things then it displays these for you to read. I complained about this before. You'll need to try and use other tags fro your posts if you want these to change.
