It’s not you, it’s me. The server keeps running out of memory and the search service crashes. I’ve added some scripting to auto-restart it, but it seems to work maybe 1/3 of the time. More investigation needed!
Folks,
Due to the constant stream of spam, I have changed things so that newly registered users cannot post new threads here. They must wait a cooling off period, after which they can post. I am hoping this will be sufficient to reduce the number of bot posts that the Staff have to constantly...
