A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It submits just fine, but it doesn't show up in the list at the end.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

So you can repro the bug?

Jon, do you know if, say, someone having the thread maintainy screen open would cause this? Like if Victor still has the half-created thread window up?

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

I'll have a peek at the code. I did it manually.

Could it have been a bad reaction to the "-" in "X-treme"?

There's a "--" in Unamerican so I think not.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

I am suddenly unable to log in using Netscape 6.2.3. This just started last night. IE 6.0 SP1 works fine. Tried clearing cache & cookies, like the good tech support geek I am. Next, I'll try reinstalling it, unless anyone has any other ideas.

EDIT: It gives me the wonderful login page, but doesn't actually, um, log me in.

Yep, it is. And, like I said, it works fine in IE, at least on this computer (same one). Haven't tried it at work, yet.

OK, upgraded Netscape to 7.02, no happiness.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Hey all. I've skipped a lot so this may already be a Known Issue.

I've begun to notice that sometimes, posts appear, I read then, and then they seem to revert to being "new" when I get back to Message Center. This has only happened a few times I can think of, and it's only one or two posts at a time, but, you know, apocalyptic fears that my individual presence is breaking things.

An example of what happens: I go into Natter XVI, which has 1204 messages, 4 new. I read the 4 new. I go back to Message Center, see that there are 2 more new messages in Natter XVI, so I click on it again. And when I get there, the screen shows me #1204, which I've already read, standard context-post, and #1295, which I have also already read, and #1206, which is the only new post.

Doesn't happen with any consistency I can map, but it happens, and I worry. So. Any ideas?
