But of course you also need to take care of the db, the db connection, etc. 

i just got it again in like a month

Fucking mail server - it's not doing ANYTHING, why is it hogging my database! 

my new Nokia N900 phone. Holy shit the browser on this thing rocks.

HA! 

 

I'd like to have a "Show last previous n posts, too" button that just lowers the start post id by n. I find myself going back and forth between previous page and new posts a lot for reference (or rather, I mostly just go back one page and cut off the end param). The new button would allow for exactly that, having the referenced post on the same page as the answers. 

yeah, that makes sense. I sometimes find myself doing the same thing (actually what i do is hit "previous" and then "last", but my goal is the same.) 

that'd be pretty cool. usually i manage by manually changing the number where it says "start=####" in the address bar, but a button would make things quicker.

these errors should now be a thing of the past. Let's hope. 

Yeah, here's hoping it goes away, thank you! 

ERROR: Error message number 42 

it said? When? Where? 

pulling my leg 

that's an intentionally cryptic message i put in to try to keep spambots out; it means the IP address you submitted from is different than the one you loaded the page from. I had hoped it would never affect users, but I guess certain proxies or firewalls can cause it to get tripped. I actually get that sometimes at work, and my workaround is to "preview" and then submit.

Perhaps i need to relax or remove that restriction if it's causing people trouble. 

 

moderators need to be able to choose which thread to re-post rejected news submissions to. 

 

Some sort of spam bot is shitting up the news threads. FYI. 

or a spam-human (like a spambot but composed of flesh.)

I'll flag them in the database when i get home (still need to add spam flagging to the moderator UI) 

Spam flagged.

However looking at the timestamps, some are only about 10 seconds apart, so it probably is a bot and not a human. So I guess I need to beef up my spambot defenses again, if this bot figured out how to get through. 

I'd suggest to be wary if they enter e-mail addresses as their username.
