I haven't noticed this myself. What exactly are you doing that prompts the error?

Creating a cache listing.

[+Markwell]

Just tested it with a dummy cache - not actual placed. Verified that I did NOT get a server error.

 

And I edited it.

I just created a cache listing w/o getting a server error last night, submitted it at 12:30am (local), published at 8:04 am local.

 

Soooo... am guessing this thread is Bug 9 (MAGOR).

[+baloo&bd]

Thought someone my be having a discussion on J. R. R. Tolkien's middle-earth themed caches. Imagine my disappointment to find a spelling error. Bug 9 - Spell check appears to be broken in forums.

Is that green stuff the "bug"?

Are you saying we have cheesy software?

Not any more.

Now that is a MAJOR bug.

[+pppingme]

Where does MAGOR fall, is it below minor or is it even lower?

[Keystone]

You can't create or edit Geocache listings without getting a server error.

On the weekends, only platinum members can create new listings. This helps balance the server load. So, you may see some published (I've published around 20 so far today) but that is where they are coming from.

Going very briefly off topic... Pinehurst, have I ever told you what an awesome avatar you have chosen for yourself? I swear that you could not have done any better!!

I was thinking Patrick might be a better fit, but what do I know.

I thought MAGOR was one of the lesser known Japanese monsters. Somewhere between Gomora and Kumonga.

[+The Blorenges]

... Round these parts, it's a cache series.

Melchior Buggz

Lets talk about real problems! If I have logged a cache, there appears a script at the tbottom of the page: If I fillin the next cache, and hit 'enter' nothing happens. I have to hit the "go" button. I always hit 'enter'. I thought that type of Melchior Bugg went out of existance decades ago!

Why?

[+Pinehurst]

It still needs fixed.

[+Markwell]

It's not broken.

 

Re-read the posts starting here, where I tested and showed it to be working.

Then why is it not working for me?

i think the lackeys added a special code to the cache edit page. something like "if username == pinehurst then throw-error". makes perfect sense.

Why would they do that?

Obviously, they feel that your time spent chasing MAGOR bugs in the forums is too important to allow it to be diminished if you go doing things like hiding caches.

Wouldn't that be MAGOR bugs?

Bump - I still need help.

Should I mention that generally if you read the page there will be red text telling you what you neglected to enter while attempting to submit a cache for publication.

 

I believe TPTB have now added an additional telepathy routine to tell if you are lying or not when you check the last 2 boxes at the end of the page. So be sure you have actually read AND understand the guidelines and TOU before trying to submit your cache listing.

You mean that random question about the guidelines that now pops up when you hit submit these days? I HATE that! Haven't been able to hide a cache since they put that in place.

Exactly. And if you are lying when you check the boxes a server error will automatically come up. A few years ago Geocaching.com was able to tell if you were lying but not able to display an error, so your listing would be sent to a reviewer but with a special flag on it. The reviewer would then make up various excuses to not publish your cache (if you look back through the forums there are many topics of hiders complaining reviewers would not publish their cache no matter what they did) and make you jump through hoops until you gave up. This increased the workload of reviewers greatly so the server error feature was implemented.
