The April 1st path.net alert is still pinned on the top of the light theme
 
The new user form should say something about the limitations on new user accounts, there is a fair bit of confusion in the introduction thread.
 
Why can't I reply to certain posts? Will see the "like" function but not "reply". Thanks!

Nool has disabled the reply and quote buttons on posts above a certain length. Ostensibly this is to make it more difficult for people to make a post which quotes the entirety of another long post, but unfortunately it also makes it difficult to "legitimately" quote them. A simpler workaround that I use is to @ the user's name, then paste in the part of their message you want to quote and surround it with [quote] [/quote]:

@-ing the user's name makes sure they still get a notification for "quoting" them since they wouldn't get one otherwise.

Have some of May's tugboats come in a bit early? The hamster error keeps coming up intermittently (DDoS?).

I'm not sure what thread is better for this, if there is a more accurate one point me there. How do you search for more than one term separated by spaces in the kf search? Doing it normally just does an inaccurate search with either/or.

I believe you can use standard search syntax and operators. So like putting the exact phrase you want to search for inside quotation marks, using things like & and | in between search terms, etc.
 
I can’t seem to brows Kf via Brave? It’s it a local setting on my part, an update to Brave or a recent Kf settjng?

Had a double post, went to delete the second one, and both disappeared even though there was somebody else's post in between mine.


Wasn't an important one or anything, so I don't care, but thought I ought to report it.

I bet what happened is that a janny saw you double-posted and deleted one of the posts at the same time you were deleting the other one.

Kudos to the quickdraw janny, then, because both posts were up for 5 seconds.
