OK so this happens to me on a few threads. I'll be browsing the "last page" of the thread but when I come to the top/bottom of the thread it says there is one more page. When I click to go to that "new last page" it just refreshes my window on the same page.

For example

I'd click on page "32" but it will bring me back to page "31"
So is this a bug or are some of my settings fucked up?
 
Hmmm... I'm not getting that. Go to Edit Options under User CP and change how many posts you view in a thread, save it, change it back (if you want) and see if that clears it.
 
It happens after a certain ammount of posts are made, I think. Check any really big thread in the Fun and Games or the like.
 
It's got nothing to do with the size of the thread. Those kinds of errors were eliminated from vB many many years ago. That kind of error tends to happen where a post was made which added a new page to the thread, and then was subsequently deleted. People making a couple of posts generally makes it fix itself on its own. There's also occasional issues where people have inserted text into their posts which really isn't compatible with the server (ie. Anything not compatible with UTF-8, which isn't a lot), though that normally wouldn't cause this.

There's a simple maintenance thing in the admin panel which would fix all occurrences of these issues that are currently in the database. It's server intensive, so I don't like running it often. I'll set one going late Thursday evening / early Friday morning US time, which is generally our lowest traffic period of the week. Should clear it all up.

Thank you very much for clearing it up. :)
