I noticed something weird going in on avatar images when thread page is changed.

 

I returned to read one of my threads. Switched to page 2, then I saw my avatar next to a post and read through "my" reply. I was like "did I write this?!" then all of sudden, maybe 2 seconds, the avatar changed to someone elses!

 

What kind of cruel joke bs is that? Smiley I EVEN checked the avatar in question to see it was not some animated gif avatar that's animated to change from mine to someone else. That's how it certainly looked. I had had the page open for a while and scrolled it before starting to read that comment so there certainly was like 2+2 seconds after using the page changer.

 

I tried to repro it but on next page changes the avatars only flickered quickly as they changed, so with a high speed camera it might've been possible to register them displaying the wrong picture. This was on IE8.

That's how this site has always worked (ever since the new and "improved" C9 was launched).

after you page we push the new avatar image urls into all the existing avatar <img> tags ... if the new images take awhile to load, sometimes the old images stick around. The change to the markup happens as soon as we render the second page, so I'm not sure why the images don't at least blank out... but yes, this is the way the forum has worked for awhile now.
