Site changes *UPDATED*
The HTML formatting buttons work again! Thanks to Derek at Ellislab (the creators of ExpressionEngine, which powers the site) for finding the problem over the weekend.
As you may have noticed, some things have changed around here. A slightly tweaked layout, I hope it makes things more readable. The comments page has changed...I upgraded the back-end software and it broke the HTML button formatting. Until I figure out why, or find a replacement plugin, I’ve changed it so that you MUST preview a comment before posting it. I think this will not only help you figure out if you forgot to close a tag, but it will also force people to slow down and read what they wrote before hitting submit.
Also - big change here - you may edit your comments for up to three minutes after you’ve posted them.
Tomorrow I upgrade the forums. And try to find out why the formatting buttons are so evil all of a sudden.
Comments
No more “last 60 comments”?
Edit: And we’re editing comments now? Hoo boy. While this will be good for fixing typos and maybe not double-posting so much, I expect a lot of “I never said that!” from Mooreons who have gone back and edited the incriminating crap out of their posts. Oh well, six of one, half dozen of the other.
Testing the editing for non-admins...it should stop working after three minutes.
Tick, tock, tick, tock…
Wow. I’m really flattered, Jim.
...because I’m certain this was all done because of me, and my incredibly frustrating inability to properly close a tag. Heh.
Now I do have to ask this publicly since you’ve disabled yer PM, but does “initially from north New Jersey”, mean, like, Sussex County? Maybe even the town of Noo’in?

So does this editing work?
Holy crap it does. Cool.
