The "E-mail Admins" tool doesn't work if you are not signed in. I signed out, clicked the link, completed all three fields, and clicked [Post]. All three fields cleared, and I got error messages for all three. Is this a bug or a feature?

Same result when signed in.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Same result when signed in.
Okay then, ignore what I just posted about it being anti-spam over in Bureaucracy.

Link appears to work ok.

Hmmmm. Previous attempts were with Dolphin on an iPad.
Tried again with Chrome on Win7, same results. The fields clear, and I get error messages at the top, white text on a dark red band:
Invalid e-mail address
Message subject missing
Message body missing

This has been mentioned before, here and here. Same errors reported. The first instance occurred at the time of the hack and subsequent move to the new server, so I'm wondering if sendmail was never properly configured on the new server in the haste of the move.

I mean the "if this form gives you trouble, try this link" link. I didn't actually send an email, but it seemed to work up to the point where I didn't want to pursue it further.
I do get the error message with the form.

I kinda remember some discussion about it being the possible source of the hack and therefore maybe do something different? Very vague memory, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Is anyone else getting a frequent "Server Hangup" message when loading pages? I refresh and it's fine but it's happening a lot.
Okay I think it's specifically the Marvel Universe thread that's doing this, although it also happened once when going to Message Center...from Marvel Universe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
A note from our host:
Hey Jesse,We want to remind you about an important PHP update that affects the following domains you have hosted at DreamHost:
- buffistas.com - buffistas.net - buffistas.org - filk.buffistas.org
Starting on January 19, 2016, we will begin automatically updating domains from PHP 5.3 and PHP 5.4 to PHP 5.5. You will get an email when the update is complete.
We're updating PHP because: - PHP 5.3 has already been End-Of-Lifed (EOL'ed), which means the product is no longer receiving security updates from the developers at PHP.net. - PHP 5.4 is EOL'ed. - PHP 5.5 will EOL in July 2016. - PHP 5.6 is well tested, stable, and has been in production since August 2014. You can check out all the cool features on our wiki.
Most sites should update just fine from PHP 5.3 or PHP 5.4 to PHP 5.5. However, there are some cases where sites can break -- usually from custom or third-party scripts, or from using out of date 1-Click Installs. Our wiki has all the details.
If you are ready to update your sites to PHP 5.5 right now, click here to begin.
Anything we need to do for this?
