I’m going to upgrade my WP tonight, and play do some more diagnostics.

By the way, thanks for stopping by so quickly! 14 minutes, impressive.

If so, this is unlikely due to SK2.

WP has problems (and inconsistencies) of its own when handling TBs and PBs… It’s quite unreliable overall. SK2 could definitely catch TBs by mistakes, but one of the core feature of SK2 is that it always save the comment, no matter what. In fact, better than that: SK2 lets WP save the comment, then, if necessary, moderates it. That way I am fairly certain that in no way could it eat a comment/TB…

You may want to drop a note in the WP forums about this, though…

I deactivated SK2, posted this article, then checked for pingbacks. The first reference got one, while the second one didn’t. The links are correct, so it’s not a typo issue. Time to upgrade to WP 1.5.2 and start checking the wiki. :(
