After one day online, the Panda seems to be offline again - or is it just me?

It just came up for me.

Nearly two weeks of no PT and the shakes are setting in.  Is there any news about when the migration will take place?

I'm having a connectivity issue from my home network to AtBC and other sites on the server. If you have experienced a problem connecting from certain networks in the past week, please send me a description of the problem that you have seen. I'm having difficulty convincing my ISP that this is serious.

Email to w e l s b e r r at g m a i l dot c o m (remove spaces, convert to symbols as indicated). The problem is affecting my normal email, too.

Can anyone here tell me why I can't post anything on Panda's Thumb? I've tried every way I can think of and nothing works. I've tried Open ID, Google sign in, Wordpress sign in, Blogger sign in, etc. I've conversed with Reed Cartright via email, with no remedy.

When I try to post there I get the comment page, I type my comment, I click preview and the preview shows up, I click submit and then this shows up:

I'm using Vista and the latest version of Firefox. I also tried with an older version of Firefox.

I'm going to be off line pretty soon, until later tonight.

Yes. It happens sometimes when a bunch of posts get moved to the BW in one of the threads, though usually it happens in that thread.

ETA: Should be fixed now.

I've been under the impression that only certain people can start new threads here but then I noticed the new topic button. So, I'm wondering if anyone can start a new thread and if there are any guidelines, rules, or special permissions that apply?

The general rule is that you check through the already-existing threads to see if one of those is close enough for your post. Only if no existing thread is suitable should you start a new thread. It should be titled such that it can be re-used in the future. For example, a new topic I recently created was one for discussing "Religion and Co-Workers". The spur to doing so was the Coppedge v. JPL case, but with that title, it also covers the old Peloza case and any future cases with similar issues at play.

Obviously, there has been quite a bit of topic creation that doesn't meet these desiderata. If you find an old topic that could be re-purposed with a different title, send it to me as a suggestion via PM. Birthday threads get a pass.

If you start lots of new threads willy-nilly that are needlessly specific, that would be annoying. They will be closed and you might lose new topic creation privileges.

Thanks for asking about what works.

This site no longer works on the Kindle Fire. It did until a few days ago, by now the latest post the comes up is 2005. If I try to limit it to the last 90 days it says there are no posts in the range.

What does the Kindle Fire use for a browser?

I don't recall making any changes to the site in that timeframe.

I see a recommendation to test sites with Chrome or Safari as similar Webkit-based browsers. I've writing this response via Chrome, and stuff is working fine.

Their browser is called Silk. I just realized that it started defaulting to the highest numbered thread in the AtBC section. I haven't tested it to see if this was something i did or whether it will revert to this.

I don't get how a browser could limit the date range if it gets into the site at all.

Could it be chopping off part of a list of page number links? See if forums and topics with fewer pages show everything up to their last post.

In case it isn't clear, I found and solved my problem.

If you click on After the Bar Closes, the lower page numbers are always the more recent.

Within a thread, the higher page numbers are more recent.

Somehow I got the browser stuck in the wrong page, and asking to sort by most recent did not fix it.

Occasionally, (just now, actually) when I enter AtBC from the anti-ev discussion page, (which recently started popping up when tabs reload after restarting firefox 12.0, even though it was pointed to AtBC)  it starts me at some random thread page, even though I have "most recent" checked.  Drove me nuts for a bit, but now I just shrug and click the appropriate numbered page.
 It started a few months ago.  Don't know if it's ikonboard, my browser, or both, but I've gotten used to it.

I just encountered the problem that Schroedinger's Dog mentioned: unable to post because of a "you have too many images" canned error. I have to put in (snip) and then my post in edit mode.

ETA - Of course, here my post worked as usual.

I've tried a couple of posts and haven't yet replicated the problem. I'll try to look into it some more this weekend.
