Subject: Please do not create topics referring to the post reply bug.

Spamming the forums about the error will not help at all. The web team is probably already aware of the issue thanks to the bnetbugs email address.

Also, do not hold conversations by creating new threads. I know it is difficult, but we're just going to have to wait until the problem is fixed. Until then, the #7thColumn IRC channel on the irc.bungie.org server might be a good option (though I can't guarantee that there will be people in there. There is always the #theflood channel, if you're so inclined).

We're deleting any threads that don't comply with these guidelines, and anybody who doesn't get the message (that is, does it over and over) will get a substantial ban.

I'm glad to see that a mod finally took action. Thanks.

I bet nobody that can solve the problem is online. I bet Achronos wakes up tomorrow to about 500,000 emails about this bug.

What is the post reply bug? What happens?

[EDIT] Crap. Nevermind.

For those who don't know...

It posted the reply but it didn't take me to another page that would indicate post was submitted. Hit "submit" once and trust that it got posted, it probably did.

Select your text and copy it to your clipboard, and check the forum to see if it posted before hitting submit again. This will avoid the embarrasing double post (see above)

I know what happened. Achronos just installed the latest version of Norton Anti-Spam

EDIT: It took 3 attempts for this post to get through.

This is the first attempt that I have made to post this edited post.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

It's impossible to instantly fix something. Bungie's other option would be to take the site offline whilst fixing. Which would cause more complaints, since nobody would be able to use the Forums at all.

The problem is intermittent, and seems to be the result of certain stored procedure taking way too long. We have been attempting to isolate the problem, but such things take time... especially when the problem is intermittent. Have patience.

It may be a little better now. I will continue to monitor it. There are other things I can try, and I've only fiddled with one set of things so far.
