Strange first posts?

Ted, this happened once a few days ago, but I thought it was an errant post by the original poster. It's happened again to the "consideration" post by Polus in GG. There is a first post from no-one with just an "x" in the body, and then the second post is Polus' entry. Here's a screen shot. Just to let you know, don't know if it's me (IE 6) or something else. The other incident was on another computer running IE 6 too.

I assumed it was a bad link to a photo?

Polus makes no mention of a photo, thats what got me thinking in the first place. I thought it might have been a photo too, but even then there's no name as to who posted it.

Yep, you're right. I just tried to "quote" his post to see, and there was no quote symbol for the first post.

Ted. It's over to you. Who leaves a post like this? .

The first post is by Polus again, strangly enough.
