Weird board error message
I just got this one from the board, after submitting a post:

There's been a lot of hiccups lately, threads have vanished and then reappeared, a couple of times I tried to follow my e-mail alert link to a subject only to be told it didn't exist (but it was here when I checked in directly). And lately I had a post in one of the ongoing Israel threads that didn't appear until Darth Wong posted something behind it.

Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."
In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!
If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!!
Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

There's also the known issue of the first post on a new page isn't always accessible until another post is added. I had the first post on page 4 of 3 the other night. IIRC, there's a mention of this in the announcements forum.

It's called a flood delay. The idea is to keep someone from hitting "submit" 50 times in a row just to clog up the board.

Re: Weird board error message
It's because you double clicked the submit button. When you get that warning, it means that you've posted it. Go back to the thread you were replying in and hit refresh, if your post doesn't show, then submit your reply again.Drewcifer wrote:I just got this one from the board, after submitting a post:

I've had problems but I think the problem has something to do with my computer and not the board.
