When I clicked post, it posted my comment then it went back to the thread. There was the top and the bottom and the header and where the writing was meant to be....


Nothing.

If anyone's wondering about the "31 Dec 1969" thing, Unix systems (like the Linux machines this site runs on) compute time by counting the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970. This looks like a computer throwing up its hands and admitting it doesn't know when anyone joined.

Maybe the redesign can't handle such a large thread?

No, it's happening on small threads, too. I'm also seeing a lot of the OP having a blank post and getting a warning for it, then the actual post is #2 and has no author, though I do have a feeling that the redesign is part of the problem.

Apparently we all joined at the end of 1969. And now I am seeing no names or post counts...

Same. This is pretty reminiscent of that ApocalyPS3 thing [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ps3#Leap_year_bug] that some people went through.

Anyone hoping for a re-redesign? I kind of am.

It's not just the OP, I think. It's showing up on every page. In fact, this page says the first guy is BANNED with only two post.

... Musta been a bad guy.

I'm getting all that as well. And I made a post about it (not even bothering to look at this, I fail...) and it said I am banned, when I only have one warning against me that I received the other day...

This is sort of hilarious. I'm looking forward to the inevitable someone pretending to be an Escapist admin or something.

Maybe the Escapist decided they really liked how 4chan operates? I certainly hope not...

As far as I can tell the "group" buttons on the homepage don't work, andlast time I actually managed to get into a group page it didn't show any content anyway.

Well, it isn't just me. Good to see I am not going crazy. Admins plz get this fixed post-haste!

Also, this is just ripe for mischief. I am so tempted to post horrible stuff and see if I can get away with it.
