You can change your username once every 3 months, and your old username will still link to you and won't be recycled. PM me if you want yours done.

@Lady Amalthea Yeah, I'll fix it on my next batch of Guild work.
@CoyoteLovely Welcome. Hopefully you have luck finding what you want.
@Grape Welcome

What did the green grape say to the purple grape?

It would seem to make the most sense to have some sort of global queue of bugs and features where I work on each one to completion one after another.

But I've found it more productive to listen to my energy levels and the other unpredictable factors like it.

Sometimes I'm at 1%, sometimes I'm at 1,000%. Sometimes I hit a writer's block where I'm stuck til I make progress in unrelated features/bugs. Sometimes I'm just burned on one subsystem yet am motivated to make progress on other subsystems. Sometimes I don't have enough contiguous uninterrupted time to tank and spank a hard subsystem. Sometimes I have to invest time on systems that aren't even visible to users.

It's just the nature of choosing among imperfect trade-offs and finite resources.

Unfortunately that does mean some subsystems and features languish far longer than I'd like.

There are random errors in the error logs I need to fix that are causing some people issues. I don't even know their root cause yet or what they are affecting. Elvenqueen can't even log in on desktop. And /search is still down due to some issues I need to figure out.

Homepage customization is a cool feature, but a pretty niche one.

If I could afford to work on the Guild full-time, I could get these done in a couple days. But Guild development is at the mercy of my free time.

@Odin Can you tell me more about the "Invalid Creds" error you got after the name change?

Since I've been changing names lately, I know other people are going to run into this issue.

Did it occur when you were trying to login via your old username?

It would be a cool feature, but it's not a priority.

In the short term, I'm going to focus on bugs/stability.

@The Elvenqueen Damn, not sure what that could be, I'll have to take a look tomorrow.

@Odin Oh, thanks for letting me know.

I tried to make it so that you can log in with your new name OR any of your old names, but it sounds like the logic isn't quite there yet.

Might be related to Elvenqueen's problem.

@Lady Amalthea Really? Nothing seems out of ordinary with the server or database metrics.

There were some weird output in the logs, but not anything conclusive.

I rebooted just in case.

@Publius I bumped up the max tag count once I introduced more tags. Tag clutter just isn't a priority, yet.
