Message phantom?

I had the same issue. A quick note to help desk fixed the problem

Back to normal.......I hope!

Ah, I see that the exorcism worked. The priests of the Temple of SLS IT Gerbils are second to none in the strength of their faith.

THE POWER OF KIBBLE COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF KIBBLE COMPELS YOU! GET THEE BEHIND ME, FOUL MESSAGE SPIRITS!

This is a company that couldn't be bothered to make the field for age automatically update based on birth date, like every other database in the world does. Nobody should be surprised by this latest bullshit.

"We'll have to wait until management fixes whatever broke over the weekend."

No worries there. They will investigate it this week and should be taking the site down Friday afternoon to patch. Be back up by late Saturday night. No one uses this site for weekend plans, right?

These are not phantom messages. They are motivational flags to make most of us feel better by giving us the impression someone(s) desires us and messaged us.

To accomplish this, SLS restored a few extra messages over the weekend. Think of it as a feature, not a bug.

You lazy SLS users complain about not finding these messages. Well, they are buried there, in the stack of thousands of messages, without any way of isolating them. You have to do it the old fashioned way, scroll through message history one at a time. Think of it as extra entertainment by SLS at no charge, like a little geocaching game!!

We'll have to wait until management fixes whatever broke over the weekend.

How do you get rid of them. Our account is showing 8 messages but there are no new messages.

I got a phantom message too.. I hate when that happens..cuz I always have to click on it

Yes, but it's a FRIENDLY ghost message.

I call the one lurking in my inbox Casper.

4 phantom messages for us. The issue is probably our fault.

We will all be told that they cant replicate it and there is nothing wrong and we all must be doing something wrong.

"We was free for a month. Got on and saw we had 16 messages and thought wow what are we missing? Joined back up for 3 months! We wasnt missing anything. Good way to get people to join back up. Guess the site is having problems like everything else. "

Haaa ,,, that was a great bait-n-switch SLS did!!!

Yes, well even with the messaging being screwed up I got my time to renew your member ship notice on the Alerts. Amazing how some things work with no issues at all.

24 hrs later....Problem still persists....I'm showing 73 waiting messages for me, but
in reality....NONE !

Is anyone actually surprised?

"So are these actual messages that people are trying to reach out to you or just nonexistent notifications?"

Yes.

Which makes more sense than the explanation we'll get in about a week....

Thought we were only one experiencing this. Should have known better!

So are these actual messages that people are trying to reach out to you or just nonexistent notifications?
