New Layout Feedback

It's taking me three or four attempts to load every page today. Just this site. Keep getting

Page cannot be loaded

Even when it does finally load I'm having trouble getting it to accept 'likes'.

 

[squeekness]

Smooth for me now, hours later. Maybe another bot attack?

Slow again. America woke up.

Slow again. America woke up.

That'll happen when there's over 16,000 guests/bots on the site at the moment.

 

[nachtschicht]

I can't believe there's no solution for that. Arms race, engage.

 

[dhandler01]

3800 bots making this site almost unuseable...

 

[nachtschicht]

I don't understand the numbers thing. Right now at 12k it's completely fine.

 

[squeekness]

It's been start and stop for me. It's not bad all the time.

The bots getting frisky again must be related to Doomsday and Supergirl having their trailers dropping soon.

 

[:eek:]

The party is on again:

We're down to 24,000 bots as of right now, but...yeah...

 

[:eek:]

Can we just rename "guests" as "AI Bots" so it's more honest?

Don't be an ableist, @Teelie. What's next you call them clankers.

 

[Teelie]

Clunkers, more like it.

I've noticed over the last few days my post count hasn't been going up. Seems stuck at 19,943.

[Teelie]

Says 19,944 now.

Political and Community have been changed to "no add to post count".

Yes, I noticed today it's gone up by one, but there are several that haven't registered.

ETA: Including this one. It still says 19,944 after posting this.

 

[squeekness]

Very noticeable to me. I went from about 50 registered posts a day to less than 10.

 

[Gee]

I think there's a possible issue with the embedded images feature when it's loading heavy-size images.

For example, in the Photo Mode thread, two 5K images (about 20 MB each) I posted are not loading:


However, if I edit my post, they are correctly displayed:


I don't think it's an issue with the image host considering they can be viewed directly:

Also, embedding heavy images for the first time can take a long time to the point it gets a timeout response. Probably the forum software's cache being used.

 

[squeekness]

I have no clue about any of that.

There have never been post counts in the Community section.

You're thinking of the Diner where there are some games. It's only recently that Community and Politics were changed.
