Honestly, I thought I had already fixed this. I am pretty sure I configured it so it SHOULD open in a new tab, not sure why it isn't actually doing it.

Finally solved the mystery of the disappearing memes!

It's my VPN.  Was working fine for a while, and then suddenly ETB's memes vanished, and so did mine!  Changed my VPN server and then the images came back.

I have no idea how to resolve this.  In the past week, I've also been hit with a TON of those stupid "not a robot" tests - and these new ones are particularly annoying.  Might be time to change VPN providers.

I knew it wasn't my fault. What VPN have you been using?

I double checked on this, and it's definitely configured to do this, it's just not working. I'll have to implement a solution outside of the WYSIWYG package I'm using for the site. It shouldn't be hard, I believe it's actually how I did it on the old site. I'll see if I can find the old code.

Anyone else getting a 500 server error when loading a page? Or is that Justin trying to tell me something

Private Internet Access.  I know some of the other issues are simply websites' security, so I've been hesitant to change.  It's supposed to be one of the best, and only @ $40 per year but I'm getting tired of the issues.

I get a variety of errors every time I login now.  Getting a 419 error.  Probably my VPN.

Could happen if the page sits for a long time without a refresh and then you try to login. Same thing could happen if you typed out a post, walked away for a few hours, came back and tried to submit it. You'd likely get a 419 error.

If you're getting them all the time I'd guess it's a VPN issue.

I kept getting it back during my HOF baseball trivia thread....I think mostly in April. Couple times since but has been good for a while.

I'm starting to think justin sabotaged my username. Damn you justin

When I login to s&l, i have to hit reload 10-15 times before it finally loads a page. I log off and load the page as a guest, it loads on first attempt and I don't get any errors. 

And I don't use a VPN, nor do I really know what that is

Created a burner...justin must have killed S&L. The end of an era.

Hope my new username (thanks for killing my old one, Justin...thought you “libertarians” hated when a higher authority intervenes in shit?) can go back to its original name—blows, not rules.
