Post by Mr. Flay »

Some people are reporting that they're unable to edit certain threads, their wiki page is unaccessible, and/or they can't post in their games. While the problem is intermittent and bizarre (i.e. we're still looking into it), a couple of scummers have discovered that if your post is under a certain length, probably around 8400 characters, it's much more likely to go through.

I know that'll hamper some of us who like to use the Wall of Words technique, but at least it's possible to use the workaround until we get things resolved. Check the other active threads in the subforum for more information.

There will likely be a short downtime (~10 minutes, sometime later tonight) while this problem is addressed.

I haven't heard anything in a few days, so I don't know if we're any closer to normalcy or not. (Bad timing for server problems, with the Christmas approaching.)

In the meantime, see the Help forum for possible workarounds.

This should be fixed now. Apparently a shortage of disk space for temp files.
