Kitty Jail 2: You Can (not) Escape

Weird. If you wait on a thread that's not showing the latest posts it will eventually display a "new replies" popup and let you see the missing posts.

 

Between that oddness and the fact it took me 2 hours to clean out the spammers last friday because of excruciatingly slow page load times, I'm not too impressed with this forum update.

I tried to manually go to page 6, but that didn't work.

On a side note, according to the dialog that asks you for a page number:

"99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999"

is not a number at all anymore. Who'd have guessed?

​I'm still wondering why there's no limit on the number of thread one can create for a given time, not even for new accounts. Not that that would solve the load page problem, but if a single bot can do 10 pages worth of spam threads things could get out of hand quickly (though from what I've seen, the numbers the bots give don't even lead to businesses, so what is the point of the bots in the first place?).

Also, is the "post-lag" caused by a technical error or is just caused by stuff being overloaded? I'm asking because the forums, like many sites, work better when 'murica is sleeping, indicating it's a overload thing, but sometimes the errors show up randomly too. Is the forum hosted in the same place as the platform?

In other news, russians are immensely irritating to play CS:GO with.

I made a thing: ahov.co/pen

It needs a decent sized audience for it to work well, and Byte just made me realize that y'all qualify as living, breathing human beings for the most part. You should get on it and help distract me from my finals this week. 'Cause that's a good idea, obviously. :airquote:

*sigh* Twitter is going Tumblr-ways. Maybe it's been this way for a long time. I don't know. Just noticed it today.

Somebody was talking about prescriptive grammar, and studying to become a teacher English, I thought I'd crack a joke!
Immediately I was "shamed"! Gosh!
Excuse me for trying to have an educationally relevant laugh!

And it's not like I was able to give a punchline either... it's hard typing in the middle of changing busses. 

Oh well...

​Maybe if you make one starring ME.

​I'd need a 3D model to rig or an 8-bit sprite or something, but I could do that. No guarantees about quality of said game though, this is my first attempt ever at making anything more complex than battleship or tic-tac-toe.

​Sure.  You can also tell me how to do it, I have some ideas too.

​I'll probably ask you for help with models and animation such at some point should I lose my mind entirely and decide to make a 3D game. I'll probably try a simpler 2D one first before I even consider that though. Or maybe I'll just jump in the deep end first and learn to swim that way. Haven't decided yet.

Yeah, what happened there? I heard from Mooseman that one of the Red-Shirts Named people said the forums were switching to Xenfouro, but that obviously has not happened. (At least, hasn't happened yet.)

 

EDIT AGAIN: Nevermind, I don't have quite the budget I thought I did, and looking around there are deals better suited to what I wanted anyways. I guess I'll just keep an eye out for now.

Particularly aggressive spam attack going on in off topic right now.

I can't even tell what they are selling, it's all engrish.

​One wonders why they bother, even if someone was stupid enough to fall for it most of their contact details are old ones. Maybe it's some ancient bots that have decided to make these forums their home.
