So, what are the chances we can put some sort of spam blocker, like spamhaus, on mail.buffistas.org? Or else switch to a list system that is smarter about dealing with spam? I don't know about any of the other list admins, but I'm getting tired of having my inbox fill up with administrative requests from the Somervillains list that want me to go into the administrative interface to delete them one by one. There has to be a better frelling way. I have fourteen today alone that the system is waiting to show me so I can check "discard" fourteen times.
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

There's also another thing that's been bugging me about the list. Ever since we fixed the lists back in November [Link], and added the admins as administrators, I usually have to enter my own password twice to get in. What's up with that?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think I'm averaging 4 or so a day. I usualy wait until the backlog gets around 300, and then spend 20 minutes or so killing them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I checked the server options to see if there's any spam blocking, and there's a MAP thing, but I have more reading to do. If we go with a non-Plesk-panel solution, that's Scola.

The board is loading very slowly for me the last couple of minutes, in contrast to other sites. I mean, it's making LJ look fast, and usually b.org is the fastest site I visit. Me, or us?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've been having the same issue. Just noticed it today.

Your tag here.
There's a space missing between the question mark and the following sentence for the Natter description:
...or physics?This is...

Actually, it was the slug. (The description is that blurb at the top of each page in the thread.) Fixed.
That's actually very odd, because when I created the thread, all I did was cut and paste the slug from Natter 41, and that one is fine.

So I had this thought--hivemind.buffistas.org, the Buffista wiki.
Readable by all, editable by registered users, perhaps not searchable.
Just a place to put...stuff. Stuff that might get repeatedly Nillied. Product recommendation. Tips from Buffistechnology. Recipes...you know.
