Mods have no clue on the progress of bugs. All I can say is it is still being worked on.

Here be a Quick Fix to this issue.
Once you have made at least one post in the topic you can use that one to make the newer posts show up with out posting again. To do this click on "Delete Post" being that its on the game board it will tell you that can not be done. Now hit backspace (Or any other key/button to go back a page) and refresh. Bam new posts show up and you don't run the risk of being modded by the GF mods for posting to see new posts.
This however does NOT work if you are the maker of the topic, you'll need to make a 2nd post in the topic and use that one

Heh maybe I should make a list of all the work arounds I've found so far for this site's bugs? >_> What I posted also works in the main boards if the issue shows up. and a 2nd note is that if a user from GS posts in the GF topic, all posts up to theirs will show up when you go back into the topic

GFAQs needs to update their own forums. Until then, this problem will persist.

I've not noticed this specific bug, but here's something else that may be related & info that might help.

I was going to check on a thread I created. I couldn't find it. Was it deleted? Why would it have been deleted? I checked for any messages from Gamespot about it. Nothing.

So I Googled it.

This the the forum page. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/nina/forum.html?tag=quicklinks;forums

This is my thread found through google. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/nina/show_msgs.php?topic_id=m-1-47115756&pid=918964

I also found the GameFAQ forum through google. http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/gentopic.php?board=918964

All the locked threads on GameFAQs do not show on the Gamespot forum. I understand why they'd lock it, it makes no sense in the context of their page. Though I don't know why so many of the other topics are locked.

I don't understand why GameFAQs should have control over Gamespot forums. I know they're "powered by GameFAQs" but posts like mine that depend on the context of the page, and was posted at Gamespot should be moderated from Gamespot. For the same reason, I don't understand why blogs on Gamespot are cross posted to Movietome and TV.com and MP3.com. If sites are geared toward specific forms of entertainment why pollute them with subjects outside their focus?

Locked topics on GF now means they are "saved" where as they used to get eaten every few days and go to "hell". Why the don't show up here tho I don't know but I'm gonna say its got something to do with how its coded on GF and a bit of the coding here on GS.

Based on the time it's already taken, most likely months

I was in the GW forum, and there it doesn't say how many posts people have under their name, it just says their name. Is that a glitch or something else. It also highlights everyone's names in blue

In some topics on the shared boards I can't see any posts aside from the original - whether I've posted in the topic myself or not.

That's caused by some other GameSpot user viewing the topic before you did. Common misconception is that someone from GameSpot has to actually post to trigger the bug.

I am grateful that at the bottom of each game specific forum is a link to the GameFAQ version. It's just annoying having to have the same forum open in two windows - one to view replies, the other to post in. I don't know any of the technical side to what might cause it, but it seems to be taking longer to see replies in GameSpot. I don't know if I'm remembering back to the pre-Wide days, but if you waited 30-60 mins, sometimes these invisible posts would begin to appear in GameSpot without any workarounds. But now even waiting that long they don't seem to work :( Let's hope Drac was right and this could be fixed (again) soon :)

Why is this problem not fixed yet? It's been awhile, and since it happened at least once before, Gamespot should already know how to fix it. Do they want to lose members to GameFAQs? I am starting to consider making the jump to GF myself. Why would I want to stay here when I can join GameFAQs and see up-to-date messages on the exact same boards without any problems?

I've noticed that on the shared boards, you can sometimes see posts made by Gamefaqs users, and you can ALWAYS see posts made by other Gamespot users. The only way to "refresh" a page sometimes is to post in a thread. Most of the time (95% if I had to guess), you CAN'T see posts in the threads without posting yourself....This is ridiculous. I hope it gets fixed soon, because I prefer to use Gamespot much moreso than Gamefaqs.

Gamefaqs shouldn't change a thing. Their forums aren't the problem, it's Gamespot's....

One quick rumor to address before diving into the mailbag. Word spread pretty quickly that I told a user in a feedback form that we were looking into a redesign for GameFAQs for 2009. Rather than just ignore the rumor, I figured I would go ahead and confirm it. This is definitely down the road and will be very thoroughly tested well before it goes live, so it's nothing to really dwell on yet. But in case you heard about it and wondered if it's true, there you go. Now onto the mail.SBAllen
Apparently GameFAQs is going to end up changing stuff around pretty soon.

I don't understand why though? Everything is fine the way it is over there. The last thing they need is for their forums to be screwed up like GameSpot's.....
