It's more likely that it's just software that is broken 
@chris-maunder something funny is going on with this particular thread... Messages disappearing and then suddenly showing up again 
Nothing serious (I hope), but you might want to look into it.

Can you see if you can grab a screen shot of it for me? I've been staring at it a full 5 mins and nothing has disappeared or popped into existence. Should I open a bottle of something good in order to force the process a little? I'm happy to, purely for research, you understand.
cheers

It doesn't quite work like that.
David's post from the 16th wasn't there when I followed the link in one of the two mails I got on the 16th.
But when I wanted to reply on his new post from yesterday, I suddenly saw the one from the 16th.
I'm very sure it wasn't there the 16th because I received two emails from it and I looked for it.
Also, when I followed the link in the upper right corner on CP I didn't see the message.
David noticed that his message was never visible when he wanted to write another reply yesterday.
It's just there now.
It doesn't disappear or pop up, it just wasn't there until yesterday (the 19th), when he posted his new message.
This was the message I received in my mail yesterday "Here's something you might like: Flagitious Idiosyncrasy In The Dilapidation @ Obscene Extreme 2018. Not quite my cup of tea, but her voice shocked me for such a small frame. Somehow my earlier reply was trashed, in which I inquired about your piano lessons and linked something like this: Relaxing Piano Music."
As you can read, the message is now "Here's something you might like: Flagitious Idiosyncrasy In The Dilapidation @ Obscene Extreme 2018. Not quite my cup of tea, but her voice shocked me for such a small frame. Somehow my earlier reply was trashed, in which I inquired about your piano lessons and linked something like this: Relaxing Piano Music." because David suddenly saw his previous post too after posting this one.
It looks alright now, but the message from the 16th had a three day delay before becoming visible.
Somehow, David's new reply forced his previous reply to become visible.
Feel welcome to have a beer (or something stronger) while researching this, you'll probably need it

Yeah, I know it doesn't work like that. I was just looking for an excuse to drink.
I have no sensible answer for you. Our caching works on a full-thread by thread basis so it's difficult for messages to get out of place. They are generally there or not there. It wasn't stuck in moderation was it?
cheers

Don't think so.
I didn't see a "queued for moderation message" or anything and the timing was to perfect.
Maybe we'll never know.
I don't think I've ever seen it happen before either, so if you can't find anything I guess we'll better let it rest.
Ticket closed as "incident"

Sounds good to me! Let's go!

My initial thought was maybe you have multiple servers, and somehow they got out of sync (ie, one of them was rebooted right after I posted my reply). But I've never dabbled in that stuff, and think it would bring on a headache to get into it!!!   I'm happy to leave it as a mystery.

That's a... Interesting band name
Looked them up on Spotify for some better quality studio recordings.
I didn't expect an all-female Japanese grindcore band!
Here's some Japanese female-fronted metal that more closely meets expectations: BABYMETAL - ギミチョコ！！- Gimme chocolate!! (OFFICIAL) - YouTube[^]

Problem is about the solution.
when I saw the word IST and Banker, capitalist popped out but I still cannot fathom the significance of IST?

Just say what you see: Capital "i", Capital "s", Capital "t", banker.
Capital ist : banker

Wowsie... Not what I thought.
But I guess destination matters most rather than the path you take to reach it.

I think so - it was in my "CCC Collection": I keep them so I can put up a (hopefully) good one in an emergency.

These people have redefined "self-aware" to suit their purposes, so the only thing in danger from their technology is sensible use of the English language.
"Self-aware" does not mean "able to calculate and work within minimum and maximum parameter values", which is all their machines are doing.
They're about as self aware as a bowl of flowers that are not petunias.
