Using the nifty little link-to-post button at the top right of posts, I've been able to conveniently link to individual posts in various conversations and discussions, on and off the forum.

However, there appears to be a bug that completely destroys its usefulness: instead of directing the browser to the specified post, it sends them to the top of the next page of the thread.

For example, here's a post I want to get to:

"Broken" link to post.

There is a workaround for this, however it is inconvenient and inefficient: using a "starting post" link by calculating the reply # of the post you want to link.
"Working" link to post.

XD I'm an example. Sweet.

The link seems to work fine for me, however.

Weird, is it just me, then? It happens in both Firefox and Internet Explorer, and I know I've overriden/disabled the cache for either a couple times.

You're not the only one. I'm also getting this error, but it's only on occassion - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Does we even do these things anymore?

Double-posting because I've made an important observation.

Posts right at the beginning or end of certain pages are hopping from one page to a page right next to it. I think the paging system is bugged and is the root cause of all the 500 errors I've been receiving recently. Chances are both my problem and Bee's problem are linked.

EDIT: Whilst posting this, I got a 500 error again. The thread hasn't been bumped by this post. Perhaps the issue is something to do with post timestamps?

(Testing the thread bumping feature again, sorry for the triple-post.)

I used the Quick Reply box to write the last two posts.

Actually, I've now noticed that when the little square is orange, it doesn't work properly, but when it's white, it works fine.

What square are you referring to, exactly?

If so, what you guys should do is refresh the thread, as orange stands for unread.

I don't think that works.

I've cleared my cache now in case that helped. One odd thing I've noticed is that now, all the images are reloading every time I refresh the page. This is probably nuking everyone's bandwidth including CR's. :/

On the plus side, site performance has shot back up and the 500s have all-but-vanished.

They should only load once, after which they're in your cache again.

Note to self: Firefox is fine with a 2GB cache, but not a 4GB cache.

Nevermind.

There's still some strange stuff going on though... lately clicking the "Unread Posts" button takes me further than the last post I've read.

I keep getting bugs lately where I post, the server throws me a 500, the post is successfully posted, but the topic isn't bumped.

There seem to be major connection issues, and it's not on my end because I'm allowing all scripts for this site.

I get those sometimes as well. I guess it must be some kind of server glitch or something. :knock-knock:
