be gentle

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:08 (thirteen years ago) link

I don't get a blank screen for polls, though, do you?

I'm gonna go back and revote in one I've already voted in just to check, because if it that isn't working, it should let me vote again, and if isn't, it'll tell me I've already voted and can't vote again.

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:09 (thirteen years ago) link

Polls are working just fine. Phew.

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:09 (thirteen years ago) link

actually if you could go ahead and also sb me that would help as well

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:10 (thirteen years ago) link

SB'd JJJusten at 16:10 did that turn up?

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:10 (thirteen years ago) link

sb'd jj, no confirmation screen

i think i used to get one, or at least i used to get returned to SNA page or w/e, but as i say it's been months now since i started getting the blanks.

ok, so numerically i show more sbs than actually appear on my sb page, so it is possible that your sbs are showing up but not being tracked immediately?

which is a small consolation, and maybe inaccurate, but viewed in the right light is kind of like having superpowers.

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:13 (thirteen years ago) link

sb'd jj, felt great

caek, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:14 (thirteen years ago) link

let me see if anything bubbles up in 15 minutes or so. xpost

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:14 (thirteen years ago) link

Check Caek and Three Word Username and see if there's the same disparity with their numbers?

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:15 (thirteen years ago) link

ok caek, your sb went through right away. IT IS A MYSTERY

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:15 (thirteen years ago) link

invisible sbans

how bout sbans over several accounts etc, is that all still being totted up etc. you dudes are slacking imo. and have you considered my groundbreaking suggestion of adding sock sb's to the host poster

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:16 (thirteen years ago) link

Because I honestly don't want to ban Caek or Three Word Username! If they have an extra mystery SB, it's clearly mine and should be removed!

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:18 (thirteen years ago) link

ok yeah theres a discrepancy wrt to caeks total as well. this is odd.

to darraghmac: yeah actually we've been manually adding sock bans to main poster bans, although thats a bit of a pain in the ass because you have to deduct anyone thats sbed both accounts. no way to automate it tho as of yet so oh the hard and terrible trials of being a mod.

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:19 (thirteen years ago) link

xp oh yeah same as that, if it's possible to re-trace my bans against eh jj, nv and kkvgz (think that's it) then pls & ty etc

jjj i had high hopes for you as the next hardman mod but it's not such a crushing disappointment that ur in fact a gent. i blame impending nuptials tbh

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:20 (thirteen years ago) link

fortunately both caek and TWU are so incredibly far from sb territory that it isnt really a crucial issue at the moment, but im sure once we nail this down we can get it all sorted out xpost

Gerard Depardeauxnt (jjjusten), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:20 (thirteen years ago) link

If you want to run socks as be an asshole with both accounts you run the risk of doubling up your SBs imo.

pissky in the jar (onimo), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:22 (thirteen years ago) link

Makes me wonder if my missing emails are being sent to some strange unrecorded limbo, though!

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:22 (thirteen years ago) link

harbl and I had this discussion on a different mod request thread and we determined that because we were banned from certain subboards (me from iltmi & ire, her from 1p3), that messed up the sb and webmail functions. i'm not sure how reliable that theory is since i now seem to be able to SB freely (and afaik i am still banned from those boards) but both of kate's usernames are banned from iltmi iirc so that fits that theory at least

k3vin k., Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:24 (thirteen years ago) link

i think maybe my sb is just particularly potent

caek, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:24 (thirteen years ago) link

Kate, can you try sbing me?

juggalo iglesias (HI DERE), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:25 (thirteen years ago) link

darraghmac too

juggalo iglesias (HI DERE), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:25 (thirteen years ago) link

and me for luck

caek, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:25 (thirteen years ago) link

Whoa, I just SB'd Dan and it took me back to thread.

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:26 (thirteen years ago) link

i dunno am i banned from anywhere? i was banned from the church like way back in the days religious persecution of the followers of chaki, i haven't exactly been bustin down it's thriving doors to get back in though so maybe i'm still excommunicado

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:26 (thirteen years ago) link

SUCCESS BAN

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:27 (thirteen years ago) link

I just sent a webmail to Dan as well and it appear to go through, so could you check your email pls?

That'd be awesome if that was sorted out!

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:27 (thirteen years ago) link

was the answer to boring to regale us with btw?

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:27 (thirteen years ago) link

think it just needed someone with a particularly virile sb to unblock the system

caek, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:27 (thirteen years ago) link

you're tryin to sound like a stud, but rly u just sound like a dude that nobody wants to let use their bathroom

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:28 (thirteen years ago) link

(That other SB that I did just now? I *meant* that one so please leave it. Obviously not anyone on this thread right now, tho.)

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:28 (thirteen years ago) link

lolz

caek, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:29 (thirteen years ago) link

I've apparently just been unbanned from the site, though. Twice!

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:29 (thirteen years ago) link

lol caek and omar

Right now my working theory is that if you have been banned from a subboard, there's a bug where your ban is being counted in some tables but not registering in others; I just checked and darraghmac had been banned from The Church and Kate had the self-ban on ILTMI so I removed the bans and asked them to try again and it seems to work now.

This is a pretty big bug but I think now that we've got an idea of what's going on, it can be addressed. The upshot seems to be as follows:

- your bans are going through but we are having problems seeing them
- there's an off-chance this might be affecting the webmail as well? dunno

Thanks everyone for finding this!

juggalo iglesias (HI DERE), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:30 (thirteen years ago) link

Thanks for sorting it out, Dan. Appreciate that.

Karen D. Tregaskin, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:31 (thirteen years ago) link

had a skip and a half there, had a terrible notion that i had unleashed a tide of sb's caught up in code limbo. oh the irony.

illiterate mods are killing ilx (darraghmac), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:35 (thirteen years ago) link

tbh anything to avoid C++

for (int sb = 0; sb < 51; sb++)...

pissky in the jar (onimo), Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:46 (thirteen years ago) link

Since you are looking at the stats and all, could I get my current SB total?

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Thursday, 16 September 2010 16:51 (thirteen years ago) link
