Where I've been so far on the site has been very responsive. I noticed Stargazer was fixed, which took me by surprise. I did have to reload this page since it timed out at first. Thank you Keith and Bug for all your hard work!
I wasnt rude in my last post but hey-ho. Sorry if I hit a nerve with a couple of ppls. Sorry if I dont thank staff every time they fix things.
Do I appreciate what staff does to fix things? Yes. If I didnt I wouldnt after 11+ years on this site be coming back every day. I have in the past thanked them. I just dont do it all the time.
Should I be used to the problems all the time during site events? No. No one should be, even if youve ony been on here for a few years. We get told this/that was the problem. Its all fixed now. & yes the problems are fixed, until the next site event comes along. Im not being rude with that comment either, because its the truth. & just to be clear....The site was going good (for me anyway) during this event until the plot started. Only then did it decide to lag & throw out errors & white pages.
Everyone knows this site will have problems when an event goes on. What gets me is that it gets to a point where its almost unbearable to do anything. & then it gets fixed. Cant that be prevented before an event starts? Take this post however you want.
[flower=CastlesInTheSky] [tot=CastlesInTheSky] Dear users who keep blocking me....Remind me again, who TF are yous? ¯(ツ)/¯
No one was calling you rude, sorry if that hit a nerve with you, but hey-ho. Just remember that staff are people, too.
Take this reply however you want.
Few points;
Even if you didn't intend to offend anybody, you evidently did.
Complaining about something that the coders have already stated they are working on doesn't help.
Of course the site had issues when the plot dropped, it was a major update that included new games and content. As nice as it'd be for that to go smoothly every single time, that's sadly not how coding works.
Getting snarky and defensive doesn't help anything, either.
Considering the state this site started in, it's actually amazing how smoothly it runs now. And many of the "issues" you complain about are mere teething issues for fixes.
Fun fact: Rolling out a major patch update on a site with as much content on it as this doesn't happen instantly, that's why many sites and games actively go down for maintenance weekly. Subeta keeps itself running, but the tradeoff is that while those fixes are being implemented, the site experiences issues.
Coding a website is difficult, the coders here bust their asses keeping this site up and running while also making sure we have new content on a regular basis. When you complain about minor teething issues, all it does is demoralizes them when they're already exhausted. Spare a thought for the amount of effort and talent that goes into their job before you balk because you had to wait an extra few minutes to load a page.

I know you're aware the ❤️ unicode isn't working, but I wanted to point out that the battle emojis aren't working either.
It's particularly inconvenient because the guides I try to put up for the event challengers just end up being walls of text D:

And there we go, all of those emojis should now be fixed :)
I think you also wanted updates on this issue

This is slightly awkward, but I am not seeing any change?
Coincidentally, they are now not working in the news posts nor in the forum post preview when they were before :x
Hm, that is really strange, I swear they were working again for me just a few minutes ago. I will keep looking into it. Basically, the way we have been handling these has been all over the place... I'm trying to just have the sCode processor handle it like it should, but it's proving difficult lol.

Okay, thank you. I hope it starts cooperating soon D:
I think I finally got it working!
Quick test - :dmg🔥 :dmg:dark:

Fingers crossed it's fixed for real this time!!
If you have older posts with emoji, you can click Edit and then save (you don't have to change anything) to clear that post's cache :)
