You can bypass the problem with those 13 events using a browser other than IE (or applying to the petek registration service).

Thanks, I got it taken care of. Hopefully it will be fixed for real sometime soon. But if there is such an easy workaround there are probably more pressing issues.

Re: Discovered Upgrade Issues

Could be noting... But when you click the "Spotlight Post" button. I keep getting a message that says, "post you are spotlighting already has spotlights. Please check the spotlight list to make sure your quote hasn't been suggested already. Thanks." I'm pretty sure it is a bug, because after it saying it was already suggested (on about 3 different quotes.) I tried it on some obscure quote and got the same message.

Re: Discovered Upgrade Issues

I noticed today there is a problem with CD media and newly uploaded photos. When I come on to CD typically I want to check the new photos so I click the top one that shows up on the forums and it takes me to cd media. The issues comes in when i notice that there is a photo before and after in the "previous" and "next" preview boxes. It seems to me that the system just puts them out of order in some cases, it could be the portal or cd media, either way I thought I should let you know.

I get the same thing. But I have noticed that it still seems to submit the spotlight quote if you just click the "submit" button anyway, even though it looks like it is just flagging the error.

Not on the list yet. Not for Sam, anyways. I wonder if you are using the same browser he is.

Re: Discovered Upgrade Issues

It seems we've been getting a bit of spam in the forums lately. Is there a way to cause users with fewer than n posts to have to pass a Captcha test before the post goes through? (Actually, I'm not sure if those were real people behind the spam, this time...in that case the Captcha wouldn't really help.)

Also, the one post per 47 seconds appears to apply equally to making posts and reporting bad posts—I guess those go to a hidden forum somewhere, but it is a (small) annoyance to have to wait 47 s to reply with "reported" after you make the report. Or, is it possible to add a checkbox option to the report-a-post page to create a response to the OP with the text "reported"?

I realize that some of this stuff constitutes a pretty diminished return, for the amount of work it entails, so if it doesn't appear, I won't be that disappointed.

If you really want to see a ton of spam, just look at the FIRST Forums. In the past 24 hours there has been no less than 18 threads with the same spam. With the Kickoff only a day and a half away, I sure hope all the moderators there can keep up with all the spam (and endless Q&A posts...).

It only allows you to choose up through December 2006. I can't pull up 2007 as a choice.

It will show that error if you're spotlighting a post that has one already spotlighted .. so you can see that you aren't duplicating anything.

It should be smarter. One day ..
