NINJA THREADS!!!
So I finally figured out what's going on and with the coming site update, I figured it was a good time to post this.

When you have multiple pages of saved threads, one thread is stuck (invisiblely) in between each page. Basically:
There are (up to) 24 threads on each page. With this bug, there will be 49 threads on 2 pages. Threads 1-24 will be on page 1. Threads 26-49 will be on page 2. Thread 25 is nowhere to be seen. It is however somwhere: between pages 1 and 2.

If you want to see this bug for yourself, here's how to replicate it:

1- Save this thread.
2- Locate this thread in your saved threads section. We'll call this Page A.
3- Go to the next page. We'll call this Page B.
4- Remember the title of the thread at the bottom of Page A.
5- Remember the title of the thread at the top of Page B.
6- Delete this thread from your saved threads section.
7- Check the title of the thread at the bottom of Page A.
8- Check the title of the thread at the top of Page B.

The thread at the top of Page B has vanished (like a ninja). The thread at the bottom of Page A is a mysterious new thread.

Could somebody at Bungie please look into this? A fix would be greatly appreciated.


Please help keep this thread alive!

I have never noticed that before, but that would explain how sometimes when I search for a saved thread it just isn't there.

Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time

Hopefully my find won't be around much longer.

It's been like this for a really long time unfortunately. I usually just save another thread to bump the one I am looking for out of the blind zone, then remove it from my saved threads when I am done. It's tedious but it gets the job done I guess.

So you're saying Bungie hasn't, for a long time, cared that there's a legitimately broken part of their site?

Dear, heaven, please fix this.

I've had so many things I wanted saved lost because of this.

I give up on keeping this alive. Thank you to those that replied.
I'm going to message Achronos and a few others, submit another bug report, then leave the mules their forum.

Yeah, this bug has been around for a while. And the threads that are hidden always happen to be the exact threads that I'm looking for.

Someone doesn't understand prioritization.
