Subject: RE: I got the blahs

Message Detail:
Derek, you may want to exercise your sysop-ery powers to edit "blah blah" boy's post on the last receipt. The system doesn't seem to be working very well. I don't know if that comment's got something to do with it.

Done and done....the system was running slow because there were nearly 2MB of text added by that idiot...but, it's fixed now.

Recap of the system changes:


  • 2000 character limit on posts, no warning, text will be truncuated immediately.

  • usernames cannot have words inside them containing more than 40 characters (it widens the window, because the long words don't wrap). Same as with the comment, the name will be truncuated without warning.

  • For the first time in probably 6 months, I have to block an IP address - a class B address, no less. The entire ISP is blocked from posting until I decide to change it back.

So, that's the high point of my day so far! :)
