I don't see it now. But regardless, when this happens it's the static server acting up.

We're in the process today of replacing the static server with a content-delivery-network. That will prevent these things from occurring, most likely, and will also improve performance in general.

Is the move still going? Everything looked fine this morning on Fire Fox but in IE 6 I'm still getting the same formatting issues that I was yesterday.

Clear your cache in IE6. That browser is really, really IQ-challenged when it comes to managing its cache.

Looks like I'm gonna have to do a lot of Ctrl-F5'ing, but at least it's working. Thanks!

Well, you could also, you know, use something that isn't IE.

Right now, I don't have a choice.

For the last few days, the red dots haven't been showing up on my watchlist. Strangely enough, they're showing up on my work computer in IE 6.

Am I doing this wrong? How does one reply to a discussion here on Tropes? I click the button, the button reacts like it's being pressed but nothing else happens. I can't add new topics either. Do you have to be a certain level of Known?

I'm not sure quite what you mean.

Where is this problem happening — is it on wiki discussion pages like Lindsey Stirling Discussion, or is it here in the forums, or somewhere else? You've been able to reply to this topic, so the latter seems unlikely. If it's on wiki discussion pages, checking that you haven't got a Javascript blocker in place would be a start.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I don't think I have a Javascript blocker. How would I check that though?

The Wiki. I've tried entering discussions in RWBY Discussion, Eye Scream Discussion, Black Cat Discussion, Mouthy Kid Discussion... I'm just jumping around at random. My cursor changes indicating interaction, but the buttons don't do anything. There's a button that shrinks/expands conversations that works, an "archived" button that works, a "history" button that works, but the "reply to topic" and "add a new topic" buttons don't do anything.

A script blocker would probably be something like the No Script addon for Firefox which shows up in one of the toolbars, but it doesn't sound like that's the problem because the shrink/expand button also depends on Javascript.

I don't know what's happening or how to fix it; I'd recommend starting a thread in the Tech Wishlist and Bug Reports forum (here; scroll down to the bottom and click "create a new conversation") so that more people can help troubleshoot and perhaps fix it. Please include your browser version in your post.

Also, your current signature amuses me somewhat. :)
