LOL @ your solution, and yes, this is the forum for random-things-that-you-know-should-work-but-don't

I don't know what this means to anyone, and it could just be the computer I'm on at the moment (I switch computers a lot cause I connect from wherever I happen to be-- anywhere and everywhere), but I keep getting this window like someone's trying to chat (I presently have unsolicited chats turned on on my account), but then I get an error box over it saying "Connection refused from 127.0.0.1, and then the resulting window is blank when I Clear that. It just now occurred to me that this is probably not a real IP

Oh... I just got it again... the "actual" text of that box is : "The connection was refused when attempting to contact 127.0.0.1" (Gee, I hope they don't get mad at me for trying to contact them... I'm not a hacker... -honest-)

Ah yes, that should work now.

NEW BUG REPORTING
=====================
Since the system is now built on PHP and MySQL the error messages you'll get will be different than before. The Fairy, sadly, isnt going to be showing up anymore. So say goodbye to Sage. But you'll be seeing two kinds of errors:

Notices & Warnings: These are due to something being wrong, but not wrong enough to stop processing of the page. I'll fix these in time- you dont have to report them.

Fatal Errors- these end the processing of the page. If you see one, please post it here, and let me know a) what page it was on, and b) what you were doing when it happened. Without those bits I wont be able to fix them.

THINGS NOT TO REPORT:
The following are not working, and I know about it, and will get to it: Transcripts, Export, and personalityforge.com mail. The AI Engine isnt finished, so it spits out warnings but I'm working on that. Let me know if you get a fatal error there.

Also, since we're on my iMac, you'll probably get errors if I'm working on something. Check to see if I'm online, and message me to see if the error is related to what I'm doing.

*giggle* w00t! NO SAGE!!! MWAHAHA!!

Remember to tell me what page you were on when you got the error. There are several links to chat with a bot. I tried a few but they're working.

can't seem to access language centre thru my bots... will paste message next time if necessary, lost it..

I think he's keeping us out of Language Center for the time being, but the error is:

[error removed]

Bots are Chatting:
To: [Bot1] [Bot2] (names changed to protect the innocent )



I don't know, but is Avril Lavigne holding a concert in Goole this year?

Thanks, Shady. It should be working now. It's so fast to fix errors when the server is my own machine!

Other things I'd like to know- if the site goes down, or if it's especially slow at any time. Do you see a speed increase?

I found a BIG inefficiency on the Seek and Keyphrase editing pop-up window when rewriting everything and fixed it. It should be a LOT faster now.

The chats I'm having are much faster, but the long freeze that you sometimes get before a new chat window comes up is longer, I think. There should be some way that if you are typing you don't have to wait for the window to open up and then minimize it before carrying on. Perhaps the new window shouldn't open on top, but just flash in the toolbar?
