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

Hey, were we aware that hitting the [Delete] button when editing a link actually creates a second instance of the link? Because it does.

Actually, it's even better than that. Hitting the [OK] button creates a duplicate link, too. The only way to win is not to play.

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

Yeah. I fixed one thing, and broke another. And then never got back to it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Could someone change my user name back to my real first name?

Thanks!

Done! You're Lee. Again.

Woot. Again.

You (i.e. ita) found a bug in Opera here: ita "Buffistas Building a Better Board" Apr 29, 2004 9:25:49 am PDT

It's too much to hope no one's using that version anymore, isn't it?

Thanks for the Nilly. There had to be a reason, huh?

What is even happening?

I might have broken the board, or at least the links page.

I added a link to jengod's recap of the BtVS Un-aired pilot, and another for the video of that pilot (on YouTube). I went to edit the description for this one:

BtVS Un-aired Half Hour Pilot (with the Wrong Willow) EDIT
Riff Regan as Willow? A different Principal Flutie? No Angel? How can a half hour of wrongness still be so right? See for yourself.

So it would read thusly:

BtVS Un-aired Half Hour Pilot (with the Wrong Willow) EDIT
Riff Regan as Willow? A different Principal Flutie? No Angel? Cheesy (or chalky) special effects? Can watching this half hour of Wrongness ever be right? See for yourself.

Instead of editing, a new entry was created (even though I was in the edit function) with the second description, and the first one remained intact. I then went into the edit function and chose "delete" but it made a third entry, instead.

I don't want to do any more damage. I've seen DX's post upstream documenting the problem, so I'm leaving it as is.
