This is the thread where we ask "what is our current bannage total?"

Okay I just tried that and it went to a blank page. Don't know if that means the mail's been sent or not.

I must have gotten some after the events of the last few days in 77.

So KDT, I just sent you a webmail and it looked like it worked for me.

Is anyone else having problems like what KDT and NV describe?

Two separate issues:
1. Been having intermittent problems w/gmail (who send ILX Robot messages). Just sent a webmail to the Karen D account, and it seems to have sent OK.

2. Suggest Bans. Have a very few errors in the log here, but nothing from Karen D. Just SBd a couple of people and they took. Will keep an eye on it.

I've always gotten the blank screen after a SB, but I assumed my SBs were still being applied.

a-hem. killfile working for HI DERE anyway

haha oops

I got emails from both Stet and Dan, I'll try sending one from here again to see if it works.

I have sent webmails to both Stet and Dan, it went to a blank page, so let me know if anything turns up. I still haven't had a webmail from NV.

Okay. I sent one before stet and dan as far as I know so hmmmm

I'm on Firefox/3.5.13 if that makes a difference, but I can't webmail from home with Safari, either.

I'm assuming that juggalo iglesias is Dan (yes) but nothing from NV, still.

dan can i sb you for a test? delete afterwards obviously or w/e (assumin you do that anyway tbh)

I'LL TAKE ONE FOR THE TEAM, DARRAGH

can't do you twice mfer

I deserve an assist for that

ok

after the "by pressing this button in front of a jury of twelve of yr peers etc" i get no confirmation, just a blank screen which the address bar appears to recognise as

http://www.ilxor.com/ILX//VoteForBanControllerServlet

ie if there should be something there then i'm not seeing it, and haven't been since i dunno when.

eh not to get into hairy details but i assume my bans have been counting? :)

okay let me just find somebody to SB to check that

Yeah I go to the same page

nothing's showing up for you guys, either

There's a problem here but I don't know what it is. I leave it in stet's hands.

sug banning takes me back to Site New Answers - I assume that means it works for me

(I also never received webmails from the folks reporting the blank page problem.)

omg so disenfranchised.

and to think i defended ye bastards throughout the whole sb debacle

I was sort of comfortably not caring whether my SBs worked or evaporated off into the void but...there is much work still to do

yeah it's usually more for the calming effect on me than for the bannage effect on the other poster.

most of the time, like

Yeah but now I'm worried I'm like that one Who whose missing shout is preventing somebody getting a 51

What really sucks for me is, I had kind of got into the habit of hitting suggest ban a couple of times when the usual eejits kicked off, to blow off my tension instead of flaming back. Now I *know* for a fact that that has absolutely no effect at all, it takes away that release and I'm a heck of a lot more tempted to flame back (also safe in the knowledge that a good proportion of their SB's won't "take" either).

Sad but true. :-(

Hope this answers all the people who questioned the value of SB

placebo effect

Or we could all just get along xp

what's mine, please?

if mods want i could provide a list of people who most likely should have been banned but werent due to sb not working

unless I missed something, there still hasn't been any definitive proof that SBs aren't being counted

the proof is that kelpolaris is still posting

DAMN I WAS FRANTICALLY TYPING THAT

don't think meta is the way to take this thread, which is on a hair's breadth at the best of times due to its nature imo

oh ok

i'm not gonna lock it but just watch it is all i'm saying

rly expected someone to call me on that tbh, fell kinda flat

assumed I shd probably have a couple of weeks off the gin tbh

suggest brandy

I got most of a bottle of Raki, that'll have to do

did a test suggban and it took me back to the trhead, not to a blank page, so i think it... worked?

I want to see an all-ILXor musical group called the Suggest Band.

If my 1 SB is older than a week, read the 9/11 conspiracies thread and KNOW that SB is busted.

delusions of grandeur dude. pity != SB

ppl really only sb you if you aren't entertaining them sufficiently, ime

there have been 14 SB's posted in the last 24 hours, so i am pretty sure that the sb function is still working. obv we need to make sure by poking around under the hood, but i'll leave that to someone that knows what all those wires under there actually do.

and obv i dont know exactly when yer sbs were posted, but most of the people asking about them have some that have showed up recently, so i dont think anything is out of order - def think that (as king of the stupid and overlong username) the length of yer username can cause problems. for a final test if each of you want to pick someone to test the sb on (note: not someone you may have sbed before) and tell me who it is in this thread, i will verify that it went through and then remove the sb right away.

or to make things easier, sb me or John

esp John
