Anyone else notice the flagged post build-up? We currently have at least triple the average amount of flagged posts, and I'm sure some of those have been sitting in there for over 3 days now.

I've noticed that there they aren't being deleted as well. All of the ones I've flagged from 3 days + or seen flagged are still up.

A lot of old comments, like in post #873207, have their spoilers broken.

That's a user error, Anelaid. The code tag is [ spoiler ] text [ /spoiler ] (minus spaces), not spoilers.

Still, I do see your point. I've been known to make that mistake from time to time myself. albert, would it be impossible to have do the same thing as the singular?

It worked in the past, which is why I brought it up.

I don't recall it ever working, though.

I'm more-than sure that both 'spoiler' and 'spoilers' used to both work.

According to this older revision (before the recent changes to the spoiler-markup code), both variants would've worked.

I do. It worked without doubt.

I remember using both interchangeably, even thinking, "Hey I can use both interchangeably."

I think you could even do both and have it work.

Alright, I'll remember that for when it's fixed.

The issue with the spoiler tag should be fixed now.

It's broken, it takes wiki links to the "spoilers" tag now as a formatting tag.

For example: spoilers should be a wiki link.

It seems the autodelete still isn't working; I've sent post #882257 to the queue nine days ago and nothing has happened.

Moonspeaker has just been promoted from priv to builder. So there's a difference in the end?

Not really, at least for now. It's just makes it easier to tell who got promoted by donating and who got promoted by contributing (tag gardening, translating, participating in the forum, etc.)

Huzzah! So, uh...what does this mean for me, exactly? Is my status now the equivalent of Contributor, or is it another version of Privileged, or...? (Not that I expect to be taking advantage of the difference in either case...)

Same as before but with a new title.

Business as usual, then.

I've been keeping an eye on what queries cause the most database timeouts. By far the worst offender are favorites searches.

So I've created a new search metatag called fastfav that avoids the expensive join in the query. There's only one downside to this: the favorites are no longer ordered by the date when they were favorited. The old fav tag still works the same way if you'd rather preserve the ordering.

This will probably cause some hate but the Favorites link by default now uses fastfav. On the plus side, tag searches within your favorites are less likely to time out. If you really hate this, I suggest you just bookmark your old fav:username search.

I'm just wondering though, will there be any long-term solutions for all of the things that've had to be trimmed-down on the site recently (the 1000 page search limit, stripped information on user profiles, five comments per page on the comment index, etc.)?

Will Danbooru 2 perhaps address these issues?
