LowEndTalk Backend Enhancements

jbilohjbiloh Administrator, Veteran

Hi Everyone,

Around 10 PM ET tonight we made a number of enhancements to the LowEndTalk server infrastructure related to the software configurations. These changes should both improve speed and efficiency.

If anyone notices the following issues please let us know:

  1. Caching strangeness (not seeing new activity immediately, etc)
  2. Issues logging in
  3. Cloudflare rate limits
  4. Anything else that wasn't happening before 10 PM ET on 12/13/2021

Thanks for the reports (or hopefully no reports).

:)

Thanked by 1Xrmaddness

  • damn, i thought maybe you got some butt cheek implants.

  • I noticed 3. Cloudflare rate limits a few times a couple of hours ago.

  • Yup, I also got some CF rate limit errors today like at 2 PM.

  • I have an issue where the "Post Comment" button when replying get's greyed out so I cannot actually reply. I have to cut the comment, refresh the page and then I can post.

    That sounds awfully like more than 1 hour ago.

    1. I guess you want the rate limits back?

    I've made some improvements two hours ago to the rate limit settings. If you continue to see them please let me know.

    Can you share more details so I can try and replicate this, please?

    When did it start?

  • No backend, or maybe cache issue, but in the front page I see "4 new" (comments) and when entering the thread I get scrolled to the latest one.

    ^^Ive been having this too. Clicking through to a thread with a few new comments makes it scroll to the latest and I have to go up and find the new ones myself since it skipped past them.

    At least a few days ago, so it's probably unrelated to this event, just didn't know where else to mention it until now

    Indeed, glad to provide some feedback, I also feel as though it is indeed a bit faster than usual at the moment so great job to you and the team.

    Ok, good to know it's not exactly related to today's work effort but that will make it more difficult to track down.

    Are you browsing LowEndTalk only on one device or multiple?

    Does the behavior occur all the time or just some of the time?

    I believe the bahavior is explained as follows: when you return to a thread that you've previously viewed to check the new activity you are sent to the latest post and not the newest post you are yet to view?

  • Damn @jbiloh deleted my comment about trying to get in-between them cheeks.

  • @jbiloh said: Can you share more details so I can try and replicate this, please?

    >

    i dont know, but i first noticed it a few days ago, but i hadnt used let for a while prior to then.

  • I got different variation of "scrolled to last one" (or it's the same :D). If there are not many posts on page (like 1-5?) I am getting scrolled to bottom... of ads which are "longer" than posts content and I need to scroll to top to get to content.

    Clicked few random links, seems to be fixed now? However it triggered from time to time, no idea how that worked really.

    Yes, I noticed this on the mobile page too. Desktop was ok so far but maybe I didn't pay attention to it.

    Unacceptable censorship. LET without bants is like toast with butter - you can eat it, but eventually it gets stuck in your throat and you die. You get that, @jbiloh? You murdered @SirFoxy by making him choke on your thick, butterless toast. You murdered all of us. Where are your clicks coming from now, eh?

    Ghosts, that’s where.

    Ghost clicks, for fucks sake.

    My god I’m horny.

  • I could use my backend enhanced. This fistula wont close itself off.

    We know, the correct question would be "When are you not?"

    For 3 seconds after ejaculation, and when I’m in a KFC. My God, I hate KFC.

    No rubber band, bring the party bus

  • Well, if I wasn’t horny before, I sure am now.
