not a big deal or problem for me but thought I would mention it since it might indicate an issue or be a clue if you seeing other oddities occasionally. The below has happened two times in the Suggestion forum in the last month or so. I have not seen it happen before this since I have started posting here, however it maybe normal behavior for a deleted post. Sorry for the length but figure with bug reports more detail is better.
When this happened I was not getting 502's or db errors. The site seemed to be running fine.
I had the forum open, https://mangadex.org/forum, every so often I refresh and see if there are any response time changes, basically earlier then the last. If I see a new response time from when I last viewed in a subforum I'm interested in I open the sub forum in a separate tab, scan and read as interested. I don't always close the subforum right away. What I saw in the suggestion forum was a new post. I opened it and read it. In both cases it was an odd post, not spam like visit our site, or a mistakenly posted in the wrong sub forum, but more like a general troll post. Neither time did I recognize the poster. I closed the post window. A little while later I refreshed the suggestion forum and the post had disappeared, figured a mod had deleted the post.
About 10 minutes later I refreshed the forum window, the post was still listed as the last updated post for the suggestion forum and the response time had increase by 10 -15 minutes or so. Thought it was weird, so I jumped over to the suggestion window which I still had open, refreshed. The post was still gone. I closed the suggestion window, went to the forum window and reopened the suggestion forum, still gone. I clicked on the link in the forum window and was able to reach the post. I closed the forum window and reopened it instead of refreshing, same thing post listed in forum window, not in suggestion window, following link from forum window I can see post. I also did a browser search for a word in the post title in the suggestion window just in case I was being blind and stupid and just overlooking the post. Each time, nope no post. I purposely waited 20+ minutes and then did the same thing with the same result. My first thought was a syncing or cache issue but I went ahead and looked at the other responses time for some of the other times and there was at least one that had been recently updated and had a matching post update time in the sub forum. It wasn't a big deal just an oddity so I ignored it after that. Eventually it cleared itself. I did the same checks both times it happened, at least a couple weeks apart. Both times it seemed to involve troll like posts which I assume was the reason for the deletion. I have seen lags between updates, but it has been in terms of 10-30 seconds, not 30+ minutes.
Again not an issue for me, just letting you know since it might be a clue to some problem.
