Hey All! You might know me as the quick to retaliate mines, or just the chatty chick with Poison Ivy as her avatar, but most know me as the creator of the still-in-progress Legendary Mission.

And I have found a Bug. A Big one.

When you create missions you place lampposts and then drop them into your mission. And lampposts by definition are inanimate objects. But not the ones in PMOG. They like to wander. Oh not far, just over a few pages in the domain. This does however generally break the mission and cause things to end up in very strange places.

For example: I have www.amazon.com as the first page in LM Part 4. This morning I wake up to find it is listed as www.amazon.de. That's right I suddenly went German last night! After checking some of my other missions I noticed this happened in all of them. Any number of lampposts from 2-5 would wander to a different part of the domain. For my part this causes a great deal of hassle as I have to go back and edit the mission, deleting the old sites, replacing them with the correct link (which I can still pick from the drop down list) and then re-testing.

So here is your fair warning: you might have to have continual maintenance on your missions as your lampposts are bad little creatures and go where they don't belong.

And now I have discovered that you can fix them, and then about 30 mintues later, they move to somewhere new!

I had www.ebay.com. it moved to www.ebay.fr (the french version). I moved it back to www.ebay.com. Then it moved to www.ebay.co.uk! I have moved it back again. :P

BBC would be a prime candidate as far as my experience has shown. :)
