Re: Last Logon

I see that game when I do a general game search... created in Dec., 1969? Yeah, that's corrupted data, not the GM, meschlum.

Re: Last Logon

I replied to a Private Message and un-checked all but one of the recipients. However, when the message posted, it stayed in the same thread and went to everybody.

One of the GMs mentioned that they thought they saw that noted before, but recommended I bring it up.

Another one: 'Refresh the dice log' doesn't seem to do anything.

Sorry, I mistook it for the 'clear all dice rolls' function, which must have moved. Never mind.

posting

I did not know where to post this so I could be inthw wrong place. Anyways, a fee minutes ago I I replied to someone's post and after clicking "post message" I was taken back to the game menu and it didn't bumpthe thread that I posted in. It still said the other person was the last to post. I clicked on the thread and went to the bottom and ut showed my replied post. Is this some kind of bug or what? I ended up having to delete and post again, but I found it strange that it did that. Its never happened to me before.

Re: posting

I've had that happen to me at random intervals in the past.  As it was never a consistent problem, and I could never get it to repeat when I was trying to see how I'd done it, I just assumed it was a system glitch and moved on...

Re: posting

Okay thank you. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be a constant problem because I was literally sitting there for a while to get a reply before I finally noticed it. Thanks again. :)

Re: posting

Could it be a case of a cached game menu on your browser?  For example, did you try a forced refresh on the Game Menu before deleting/re-posting?

Re: posting

Well, in the few instances I had it happen, no.  I'd respond to stuff that was going on, come back a day later, and find that my response had never posted--and the responses of others made what I'd written mostly moot, so I had to compose a totally different response.

But, like I said, it didn't happen consistently, and it only happened to me in a couple of games...I think, maybe, a total of five times, in the space of maybe a month, last summer, and I haven't had any problems with it since.

Re: posting

I think you're talking about something else, facemaker329 -- DecoderZoey is talking about a case where her post is in the thread, but the Game Menu didn't reflect that she'd made a post.

You're talking about a post that never appeared at all.  I'd suspect in your case, you may have hit the "preview/delay" button and it never went through at all with a send.

Re: posting

Ah, yeah--re-reading it, I do see that we're talking about different things...

And I thought, at first, that mine was just a case of me hitting 'preview' without actually posting...but even after I started being extra careful about it, it still happened a couple of times.  I just didn't bring it up at the time because, to me, if it isn't a consistent (ie, 'happens EVERY time') problem, then odds are, there's not a lot to be done about it...if it was code-related, it would happen every time.  Since it only happened a very few times...and didn't remain a problem...I'd all but forgotten about it.

Private Line to Multiple Recipients

It doesn't seem to be working for me since the update.  Sending to individuals is fine.  Creating the line manually seems to be fine, too.  It's just the option in the pull-down menu that doesn't work.

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

In reply to PaulK (msg #221):

That relies on a popup window.  The way the window opens wasn't changed with the update, so you might want to check to make sure the window isn't hiding underneath and that popup windows are allowed.

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

OK, it seems that the popup window block in Safari prevents the Multiple Recipients window from appearing.  I don't remember having this issue before so it may be a change in Safari,  The Sticky List popup still works,

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

i don't know if it was just my computer or a problem here but i thought I should mention it. The last time I was on I was having trouble sending Rmail and posting. I would finish the post or whatever and when I went to post it...the whole site for some reason just went off. It took a few minutes to get back. Again I don't know if it was a site prob or my computer.

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

When you say "went off" what do you mean?  (If you can tell us the exact process, like a recipe, of what you did and what the result was, that helps.)

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

I'm a DM in a game, and also the game owner. I posted in a PM thread sent from a player to another DM. I'm not a recipient. I accessed it through "Other Private Messages:" I have two options for "Name:": the other DM, then mine.

No matter which name I select to post as, the PM is posted as coming from the other DM.

PS: Okay, it worked properly now.

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

Some of the new text styles, specifically the new colors royalred and gray, are not displaying as styled text at all once I post the message.  The text still shows up normally but the color doesn't display.

Instead of this: I am royalred

I get this: I am royalred

It was fine before, so I'm not sure if I did something to make my browser not understand the new colors.  To be clear, all of the pre-update colors, green, red, etc..., display just fine.

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

Use a forced refresh.  It sounds like you may have cached old CSS.

(See messages #10, #31, #94 of this thread.)

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

As an assistant GM I can't see characters in the GM menu belonging to the main GM or a site moderator (such as cruinne for example).
I also cannot see these players in the "edit players" dropdown list. (The main GM I can understand, but a mod should be treated as any other player within the game shouldn't they?)

Re: Private Line to Multiple Recipients

Not sure if anyone else is having this problem but in one of my game Wanted Player adds, the GM information at the bottom shows that one of my other games were last posted on

quote:
Its last post was made at 02:00, Thursday, 01 January 1970.


When in fact, it has been today! My other games show the right dates.
