So, I know comics have been kind of sparse around here lately. It seems that you guys aren't the only ones upset about this, though. It would appear that the server itself was so happy that a new comic was posted on Monday that it continue to post it over and over again to try and make up for my shortfall.
Essentially, by the time I realized what was going on, some 20 threads had spawned in the comic discussion forum for the same comic (which, due to the same bug causing the threads, wasn't even posted to the front page!).
Turns out that due to a bug in some of the back end code, the server would create a thread, try to save this fact, fail, and then try to create the thread again in an hour when it did housekeeping. Rinse, repeat, etc.
That shows me not to go mucking around with ancient code that works perfectly fine! Then again, I needed to add some stuff for... Well, something that "may" be happening at some "point" in the "future". Stay tuned!
