Error on sending a PM
I'd send a PM to the operations folks, but I cant!
When I send a PM or reply to one, i'm getting:
"fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known"

Re: Error on sending a PM

We're running out of something somewhere...or someone stuck some gum in here between the gears...

Re: Error on sending a PM
I take it back, I did get your PM, it just didnt show as "new".
Real sorry to the guy who got four copies of the same message because I didnt think it was going... 
Tried it with Exploder and Firefox, same error. But i'm not getting it on posts anymore, just pm's.

Re: Error on sending a PM
I see a DNS issue and emailed dory36 about it. That explains the error messages. I'm not sure how that would affect the PM issue, but it didn't count my new PM, either. I only checked because of this thread.

Re: Error on sending a PM
An automatic server software update with a missing component hit hundreds of thousands of servers last night -- every server running the same Red Hat Linux/cpanel software on the "stable"*  release schedule.
It was the DNS software, and was simple to fix but took a manual step to rerun the update.
We're back...

Re: Error on sending a PM
Seems good now. Only thing thats weird is my PM count is wrong. It says I have two and I have five. Looks like anything I got or sent during the glitch wasnt counted.

Are you sure you're counting correctly?
It's 1 . . . 2. . . 3 . . . 4 . . . 5.
Hope that helps.

My IQ is very high if you care about those things, but it's hardly that high: 12,345. 
I assume the second part of your statement is a cruel joke. Somehow you've learned that I have no feet and decided to make fun of me. Yes, it's true. I was born with a rare birth defect and have only dryer sheets where most people have feet. That's why I keep the bottom of my legs covered in kayaks at all times.

Re: Error on sending a PM
Unfortunately, I'm sure that comma in your IQ is supposed to be a decimal point.
And as far as your lack of feet, you know what they say about the correlation between foot size and weener size?
So I guess...no feet, no weener?
I cant imagine this getting any more childish.
But I'm willing to try.

Nope. I think you're right. Even with an IQ soaring over 12,000, I can think of no way to make this more childish.
We could go for bathroom humor?
