Q:

After replying to a thread this morning, every time I attempt to view that thread I am immediately redirected to a reply mode screen. Specifically, instead of being directed to:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Show-Off-Your-Necromancer
I am redirected to:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Show-Off-Your-Necromancer/page/2#post124778

  • This happens on IE9 and Chrome.
  • Clearing browser history and cookies has no effect.
  • If I am logged out, then I can view the thread correctly.

Just to note: the issue is not happening with this thread, so it is apparently not a universal problem.

A workaround (not a fix) for this was to edit the URL from:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Show-Off-Your-Necromancer/page/2#post124778
to:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Show-Off-Your-Necromancer/page/1

The latter URL then allowed me to view the thread, and have the normal Reply box at the very bottom of the page.
EDIT: However, the thread posts no longer have the edit/quote/report options; only the post permalinks appear.

Also, the trick of appending “/edit” to the original problem URL has no effect.
