Unable to view last page of threads

This has happened to me a few times now, will be reading through a thread and click the last page but the second last page will just keep reloading no matter how I try to navigate through.

I get this too, and it seems like the forum gets confused about whether there's actually another page. You can tell if it's going to happen by hovering over the page numbers at the bottom of the screen and see which posts each page covers. If both end on the same post number, you're already seeing all the posts. It's a bug, but you're not missing any content.

I think some post get deleted by mods but it still shows those pages before they were deleted.

Could be. It always seems to be a case where there would be only one post on the next page, so could be a deleted post (although it happens fairly often for me) or an off-by-one bug in the code.

It is mostly from posts that have been deleted, it takes a day or so for the forum to work that out and lower the page count. See it happen all the time on the LOL or cool pics thread.

This problem has been around on these forums for years.

You're reading through a multi-page thread, let's say 10 pages. You get to the end of page 9 and hit the right arrow, or the link to page 10 and you're back at the top of page 9. You do this a couple of times but you never get to page 10. It seems to be unique to Bimmerpost threads, as I've never seen it at other forums running the same software.

Bottom line: you're not crazy.
