Can't post more than about 2 sentences?


Recommended Posts

I've just wasted about 30 minutes trying to make two posts, both got dumped into null. Make a little reply and it posts instantly almost. Longer than about 2 sentences, it loads, and loads, and loads... and then yields a "page not found" error. This is highly annoying.

That sounds like your connection may be dropping, not to the point of hanging up, but enough for it to "lose it's way". I noticed that problem when I'm on a dial-up connection, never on a permanant connection.
In two days, it won't matter.

Chip can be a little verbose (not that we would all want it otherwise)...... I reckon that they've put in a "Chip Post Detection Algorhythm" to limit him to those two sentences.....a hyku maybe the way to go...."MacDonald posts, the trees sigh in the wind, is that the time?, must go to bed".... :)

Well, if all you can post is two sentences, then just do sentences with lots of commas instead of periods, it could actually make for an interesting new style of writing, the whole concept of never reaching a sentence until the end of a page could hold people's interest longer, which might flag if the thing seemed too long otherwise, but they'd be too polite not to stop reading until they reached the period in the sentence, but of course there wouldn't be any, so they would have to keep on reading,

I just ran tracert and it took 16 hops but it did make it to musicplayer... I just wrote a post and once again, into the bit bucket, nothing. I'm going to post this like so...

Ok, so that's it, you've sped things up by running a 1k buffer limit. Can you make the window in UBB larger so that if you fill it up you've reached 1k? Oh well, no more meandering train of thought posts.

Yep, this sucks. I don't like to A) Have to think "gee, am I exceeding 1k?" and B) Flood control prevents splitting a post up efficiently. C) It seems like I can't be the only person here that creates posts longer than 1k. I can type really fast, my whole enjoyment here IS the train of thought meandering. Like I'm doing right now; I like not having to edit myself knowing that hopefully there are technical-minded people reading this who can follow this (since when I talk in real time no one apparently follows me). This sucks. Gee, is this less than 1k? Uhg.

Sorry for the late response--I was out of the country trying to learn how to dance the merengue. Chip--email me (rkudyba@uemedia.com) the exact warning or error message you are getting. I do not see anything, e.g., a setting, about size limits for posts...

I used the post above to test what I thought was going on - posted up to 1024 characters or so, and sure enough I couldn't post anything above that. It seems to be gone now? Although I did get a strange error message yesterday (I believe I sent it to you in email?).
