it could be the initial source of these issues.
That and all the email addresses (eta:list, not members) are one link away from the page I posted.
I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Moderators--look at Privacy optionsSender filters and scroll down to the bottom and pick "discard" for "Action to take for postings from non-members for which no explicit action is defined." and "no" for "Should messages from non-members, which are automatically discarded, be forwarded to the list moderator?"
I agree with this solution.

Cool.
Jesse--due to bugs there are three entries on the links page to amazon, to two different addresses--how is it that you wanted them displayed?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, no. But my computer here at work is literally trying to kill me, so I'll need to figure it out from home.

Okay, twice now this morning, I have had the "Post Message" button dump me onto page one of whatever thread I was in (once in Natter, once in Bitches), and not process the post. I had to go back to the post page and hit the Post button again (thank you, text-saving Safari browser!) to make my posts.
And the board has been running agonizingly slow for me for several days. I know, this is useless information, but it's all I've got -- something seems to be wrong with the board (this weird Post Message behavior, if nothing else), but I don't know what else to say when I'm not getting helpful error messages.

Sean, can you go up to our BugTracker and enter that--and don't forget to include browser and OS type and version information.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I would love to be part of a new LAista list, fwiw. I don't expect us all to be best friends, but it would be nice to get together now and then.Sure, now that I'm not there... :: weeps ::

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The board is super-slow today. Here's a snapshot of what's going on on the system:
Cpu(s): 4.7% us, 2.0% sy, 0.0% ni, 0.0% id, 93.3% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si
That "93.3% wa" is I/O wait, which means that the system is spending 93% of its time reading and writing to the disk. Basically, the CPUs are sitting mostly idle while they wait for disk reads to complete. Basically, MySQL is thrashing the system.
Things we could try that could fix things in the short term are:
- Running any of CHECK TABLE/REPAIR TABLE/OPTIMIZE TABLE on the posts table.
- Archiving and deleting a bunch of stuff from the posts table.
- Making extra sure that everything is indexed like it's supposed to be.
