Goldilucky shows up in my self search where my post should've been.

Collision. Two posts were made at the same time to the same thread; one post made it into the thread, the other made it into the postlog (self-search).

As threads are growing larger, this is happening more frequently. It's a fault of the old structure still under the hood which was not designed for the load we see today.

My post didn't make either. Goldilucky got both. I'll have to click faster with more authority I guess (-:

Yep and it happens in every forum software I have seen. In fact most of them shred the threads and are a real bear to fix. Sounds like someone got smart and piped the conflict to the postlog. At least that way you have a 50/50 chance of one of the post going to the correct place.
