Search-time bug

    I'm getting that search glitch we had a while ago again. Every few times I hit new posts I get the "this forum requires you wait one second between searches, please try again in xx seconds" page, xx ranging from 1 to about 15. An old bug that I think Ross patched up a while ago and it's nothing serious but looks like it's popping up again so thought I'd give a heads up.

    I think that it's due to clocks on the various servers getting out of sync.

    Techstuff: yes, we're using NTP, no it doesn't always work for some bizarre reason I haven't figured out yet. Probably something to do with NTP being designed for time nerds rather than people who just want to keep their damn clocks in sync.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
