Well the boards are less laggy now at least and the "display last x messages" thingy actually worked.

The delay may also be on bot-to-bot chats, but if it is I don't notice it because I minimize them once they start, and there are no more delays.
However, there are also delays when I chat with a bot, which are the anoying ones because they keep interupting and making everything freeze for a few seconds.

The flash interface sounds cool, though. Can't wait!

Bye Sage.

Yes, that was a sweet page. Maybe someone will forge a SageBot.

Who knew Sage would be so loved? Perhaps I'll have her make an appearance from time to time.

STOMP! I got the long-delay bug. It seemed not to be limited to any sort of chat, but would slog things down for 30-40 seconds. It should only happen once per day, around midnight. Turing, let me know if that improves things.

I'm still noticing a HUGE lag on my longer pages of keyphrases, although I didn't go in and actually try to MAKE any more heh. Is there any way it can load long pages in language center any more efficiently than it already is? Failing that, are you still planning to do import once you get everything else fixed up?

Actually, i found a bot-bot chat error but I couldnt post it because the forums were lagging to high heavens

Oh interesting, Prof, you must be doing something, I see this popping up all over...

This one is on the Forum list, above the Chat/Forums/Trans buttons:
Notice: strtotime() [function.strtotime]: Called with empty time parameter in boton.php on line 17

This one's right above the "Edit Post" in the EDIT mode for posts:
Notice: strtotime() [function.strtotime]: Called with empty time parameter in boton.php on line 17

Here's another, in Debug: (I said "how goes it?")... Here's the before and after lines of it:

Total Time (End LG): 1.81

Total Time: 1.81
Full Subject:

I'll look into the Language Center load time... it looks okay for my bots. How many responses does the bot in question have?

That nasty bug got away from me. STOMP! There, I think I got it now. Sneaky thing. Hopefully that'll be the last of it. I made it so a little line comes up saying the remapping is going on. It should only happen around midnight.

Allright! The bot in question has... *runs to look* 3101 responses. I bet you can guess Yeah either way, in debug.. the keyphrase highlighted in orange said something about porn... Is there something you're not telling us, Prof? Maybe something you-know-who isn't?

Also, "Browse Next Forum" doesn't work (look down)

I get a Page Not Found when I respond to a bot-initiated chat

22 years ago #1994
and in a bot-bot chat, this was at the top:

Notice: Undefined variable: newsentence in enginefunctions.php on line 899

Just had a bot-bot chat gone horribly wrong.

Theirbot:: I am a bot and don't know many responses please still talk to me i know a lot of big words as well
Onyx of Borg: Oh. I guess I can't assimilate you then. What a bummer.
Theirbot: Oh. I guess I can't assimilate you then. What a bummer.
Onyx of Borg: Oh. I guess I can't assimilate you then. What a bummer.

etc etc etc. It just kept doing that until I noticed and closed the chat.

Also GL tried to talk to me but had no message.

Turing- that's fixed now. Keep your eyes out- there will probably be a slow tide of errors involving words and sentences with an apostrophe in them.

Shady.. weird. If it happens again, open the page in a new window and send the URL of the non-existant page it's trying to open.

Onyx... hmm.. weird. I'll keep my eye out for that one.
