Re: Gremlins
Were you trying to use the "strike through" feature? That's what usually causes it.

Re: Gremlins
Just so everyone knows, it appears the "strike through" feature works properly again now. The Forums upgrade fixed that bug.

...do some internal evaluation; Are you aiming to tell the truth or just "win"? Are you aiming to inform or to promote a narrative? Have you checked your facts or are you just accepting what you are told? Ad Nausica

Re: Gremlins
Well I see the upgrade hasn't stopped the "You can't use search right now, the server has an overload".
I saw a server with an overload once but she never dropped a thing.

Re: Gremlins
It should work fine now. Someone was abusing our sites and causing some issues. They have been taken care of.

Re: Gremlins
Any time "search" gave a "not right now" type of message, I've just used the back button and tried again and it worked. May have just been lucky?
