What is even happening?

ita, it always used to work for me. Then I started having trouble if I wanted to suck too much of the thread. I don't know if I ever reported that, but I think DX had the same issue, and reported it.

Then I started having trouble, and Tom did something that fixed it. Then I started having trouble again.

Today I could thread suck a little from Natter ~600 posts. When I tried ~1600, it wouldn't work. And I just sucked BBaBB from post number 9000 to the end, and it worked. I couldn't suck from 8000, though.

Just tried again, and can suck from 8500 in BBaBB.

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

Just to throw another data point in, I had no problem just now sucking the entireties of either Natter 31 or Bitches 19.

Our wings are not tired.

That Cindy, she doesn't suck.

FWIW, I just sucked all of Natter with no issue. Firefox/XP Pro

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

Jon, here's the browser detailed breakdown.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I did not know that "Steve have mercy" was a browser.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Is Strega a stompy? I've noticed I can't block ita, amych, -t-, DX or Strega, and I'm guessing it's a stompy thing. It was a kind of a whoa moment, since I noticed that I couldn't block Strega first. Not that I was going to, but it was a short post, and there was the "block" on the post before, and the "block" on the post after, but no block on Strega's post. Except now I see that -t's not in the stompy listing either.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Huh. I can block amych. (I just tried because it was the post above Deena's.) Am I not supposed to be able to? I haven't noticed any others because I actually kind of forgot about the whole blocking thing.

You tried to block me? Sniff. I'm so hurt.

Strega is not a stompy, nor is t-. The current stompies are ita, Jon B, DXMachina, P.M. Marcontell, Liese S., and amych.

I'm not sure why you can't -- she's not a stompy, and I have block next to her posts.
