Yes, I'm pretty sure I know why this problem occurs, but I haven't yet decided on the best solution. My guess is you are not following the other people in who replied to the thread (whose replies did not show up in Pumpa)? The problem is that Pumpa currently fills in any new replies (that appear after the main post has first appeared) when they arrive in the meanwhile feed. The meanwhile feed shows only replies from people you follow. To get all replies it would have to reload the original post, but the problem is I cannot know which posts have received new replies, so I would have to poll *all* posts in the inbox, which would cause something like 20-100 extra http requests. Another partial solution would be to reload the inbox feed itself, which usually contains the 20-or-so newest posts. This would automatically get the 4-5 newest comments for each of those posts. Right now Pumpa only polls for new items. Anyway, I will need to figure out some kind of solution before the next release, this is an annoying issue. Regards, Mats
