Exalted forum not updating again

[Lioness]

I keep getting "Empty Response" and the front page shows no sign of updating.

[Lioness]

You could also put it on Sword of Creation in the meantime, but yes I'll do my best to recover threads from limbo.

[Erinys]

I also can't start a new thread, arrrggg.

Last time this happened, you were able to rescue a bunch of threads that had been in "limbo". Were those new threads? Should I stop trying to create my thread and assume you can find it later, or keep trying until "Empty Response" goes away?

If you do find multiples of the same thread from me, feel free to delete the extras.

[Lioness]

Yeah, now it's broken again.

[Erinys]

Yeah, when I posted that I remembered other times that the forum has updated weirdly with the wrong name-avatar combination.

But I also can't edit my posts in Exalted. So.

[Lioness]

That error has been around for a while.
People have just started taking note of it more because it resembles the much more serious 'Empty Response' problem.

The problem came back, right about at 9:20 my time (about 1 minute ago). The forum updated the thread I posted in, but with my avatar and Isator Levi's name.

Well, technically speaking it did not come back because, from your own description, it sounds like a whole new kind of problem, at least to me...
What's quite weird and bothersome too, no denying.

By the way, what degree of thread necromancy is allowed in the Exalted and other gameline forums? Is it OK to reply to a 3-year old thread like this one?

I generally don't care about necromancy.

You're not going to get into trouble by doing it unless you do something disruptive like resurrecting a lot of threads at once or you're replying to old posts in a confrontational way but a lot of forum users don't like it and you might find that the only new response it gets is someone snarking/complaining about necromancy.

So I agree with Baaldam on this, you're better off integrating the part you like into a newer thread.

Thank you. And thanks for bumping some of them.
I'm still getting errors when I try to post here. "Empty response" happens a lot.

Good question, it has been a few years since someone last tinkered with it.

If feeling uncertain about exhuming this one, maybe you could "export" some of its contents by reposting into a fresher but already existing thread, one on 1st circle demons.

Like this one, for example - http://forum.theonyxpath.com/forum/m...-circle/page17

Seems like a win-win to me. Hope my suggestion helps.

[Lioness]

Oh absolutely, feel free.

[Erinys]

I tried to post here and my post had some weird error cancel it. Hopefully this post will go thru.

I wanted to say THANK YOU for fixing the Exalted forum. There are some threads in Exalted that I had posted to before you fixed it, that haven't updated there. Is it alright to bump them?

But now I can't post in this thread?

Which thread?
