Subject: RE: Tech: Big problem getting posts to post
Several phenomena must be distinguished:- The script crashes reproducably, by bugs e.g. in the transformation algorithm - bad luck for us, let's split the message.
- The script crashes for some time, perhaps because of unforseen database failures or other bugs depending on internal status - bad luck, let's retry.
- The script slams the door because of elementary faux pas such as including more than two links, being a mere GUEST.
- Well, the script sometimes does issue a point of criticsm, e.g. if you don't want to to type "International Musical Gathering - Society for the Restoration of Cultural Equality" and try to abbreviate it by IMG SRC= – try it out!
- Bad words seem to be tolerated. There may be some more subtle spam detection, but I have not managed to provoke it yet, not even with my most "geekish" comments.
We have to bear our hard fate with dignity.
