I'm just throwing it out for possible consideration. I hope we won't have to.

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
I have the money at the ready. That's cool about buying the extra bandwidth. I say we wait a week.
Links to Joss' posts are all over.
Can we prevent direct linking from external sources to specific pages?
Jeez, all I did was go to lunch...

I think that would be very useful, and then at least people would repost the comments rather than send people over here.
Just a thought, if it's feasible, which I realize it might not be.
There seems to be an unclosed font tag in Literary. Everything is blinvisible.
Not any more.

How do you see that working exactly? I don't mean the code - I mean what's the functionality? Everytime website I've seen that prevents direct linking from outside the site has a simple workaround: You go to the front page first, then paste in the link and hit enter.
I was thinking that maybe we could disallow a link to a post unless the user is logged in, but, the way things are coded now, I think that would prevent un-logged-in users from reading any threads. I don't think we want to do that.
