Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Still not quite right. Should be:

Dear customer,

The problem is the bubblecornfish smelly bum tea cozy. Pine cone keebler elf.

Pay us 500 more dollars so I can buy more Playstation games and get my mom a new dishwasher so she stops barging into my room to tell me to clean my underwear off of the floor.

How/where are you checking your mail?

I've had the same problem as DX. I check the mail using the IMAP protocol via Eudora.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I've been checking my account and the filk account using POP3 via Pocomail, and the admin box using IMAP via Mozilla. As I said it's intermittent, and usually connects on a retry. The only times it hasn't are when the board's been AWOL, too.

Happened again. It was fine ten minutes later when the mail program tried again. Here are the messages I get:

We'll do some poking. See what we turn up.

In the Angel Spoilers Lite Thread, the Read New, Message Center, Set Profile, and View Bookmarks links were showing up on the righthand side of the posts, as well as the left. I went into the thread twice to check, and they were still there (pretty much directly across from the ones on the left). The third time I went in, they were gone.

Just thought I'd mention it, in case this is one of the horsemen of the apocalypse.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I just posted something with a font="-3' tag. Note the mismatched quotes. It screwed up the formatting of the entire page (expected), but when I went into editpost to fix it, the post button didn't work. I had to go back, delete the post and start over. I thought I'd fixed that bug some months ago. I'll look at the code in the next few days and see if I can figure out why it's still wonky.

t edit Cindy -- that was because of my mess.

Heee. Okay. I wondered if my kiss of death powers were now extending to the board, as well. Thanks Jon.

Okay, have you guys tried using webmail to access your mail during these outages? If not, next time it happens, see if you can get in that way. It'll help us to figure out which end the problem is originating from.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Was the Spike's Bitches subd created after the server move?
