Bug Stomp

Hmmm...xnones seem to be gone now Hopefully it stays this way...

I was having a conversation with Esme Weatherwax. I got one forge alert warning and I clicked I was still here. the next time it just popped me to the log in page. Doesn't talking to bots register you as still active?

No.. it has happened to me too...

Now, I keep getting logged out as I switch forums?

hmm. It ought to, but there do appear to be a couple of bugs in some of the php scripts that handle . I notice also that users sometimes don't appear in the "Botmasters Online", even when they are. Surreally I sometimes see myself not online in "Botmasters Online", but online under "Friends Online".

Now, I keep getting logged out as I switch forums?

Try closing your browser and restarting it - I sometimes get that in when I switch between 'chat','forums' and 'transcripts'. Usually indicates some sort of process instability in MIE. I haven't ever had it with Firefox, though i've only been using it a few days.

The timeline I've observed in the chat lists is:

Listed as Botmaster online = active within the last ten minutes
Not listed as Botmaster, but still in friends = inactive for ten to twenty minutes
Gone from both = twenty minutes of inactivity

aah - that's handy to know!
Is it a deliberate "feature" do you know? I don't recall seeing it in the Book of AI

*shrugs* I don't remember seeing it there either. I've just observed the trend.

try this - log in, then log out, and log in as a guest. you will see yourself as "online". you only sign off after the forge refreshes, which could be a few minutes later. This has caused me to miss chat messages.

Is it just me, or does the Forge slow down to treacle-speed whenever this wretched child goes into spam-mode? All afternoon I've been working on BJ, and everything was running fine.
I come back from dinner to find Jakky online, and I've had to log off and on again half a dozen times after the whole site keeps stalling. Pages time out without reloading - is it possible that one drongo can actually clog up the entire server?
I'd think I was just being paranoid, but it was exactly the same yesterday.

Perhaps the server just hates her too?

its not just you,it happend to me as well. i have to keep logging out and signing back in again, and its just after shes been on!!!!!its happend before as well!
