I run the greasemonkey script that shows deleted posts on the front page, mainly for curiosity's sake.
I've noticed
this (screenshot) happening, when a post is deleted. Basically, the greasmonkey script shows the post that was deleted, with the title of the undeleted post immediately before the deleted post appearing as the deleted post's title.
(Sorry if that's confusing; hopefully the screenshot explains this better.)
I don't know if this is an issue with the greasemonkey script or with metafilter.

www.metafilter.com appears to be down. I can access other subsites, but not the blue - just me?

IRL alerts still buggy? I proposed a Los Angeles meetup earlier today, and just received a MeMail from a fellow L.A. Mefite to tell me that he didn't receive the usual IRL notification.

Bug? At last night's meetup in Hollywood, multiple attendees remarked that they did not get an IRL alert even though they've enabled it and have (sometimes) gotten alerts in the past. (More than half of the attendees showed because I memailed them about it.)

Not Actually Extremely Problematic: The "popular tags" page on the green is a tag cloud, but none of the tags appear much larger than the others.

"You've hit your favorites limit for the day" - I have favorited 16 comments today. Nothing I've tried (cookies, etc.) has fixed it.
Anyone else having this problem? (

iPod touch er, 4.2.1. In safari, ask.metafilter in-page search results have a white background with orange text.

Atlantis post vanished from the Blue? I'm running the Deleted Posts script, and I can see other deleted posts, but this one seems to have just disappeared.

OK, I've tried fixing this myself, and I give up. Why is AskMe displaying text at a different size font to every other part of Metafilter on my home computer?

Why can't I set my timezone to -5 (EST)? It's not an option in the drop-down menu.

The login page redirects properly on the first username/password try, but not on subsequent tries.

When I load the front page, I
can't see all these posts here. Greasemonkey is listing them as deleted, yet I can comment in them.Furthermore, it seems to be random, since some newer FPPs are visible.

I can't seem to favorite comments or posts. I've tried to fave a couple of things today, and instead, it bounces me back up to the top of the page. When I refreshed the page, it seemed to hang on scripts.metafilter, and I briefly timed out when I logged out and logged back in.

I was reading the FAQ, and I clicked on the "permalink" link for a specific question thinking it would be a link (anchor or something) for just that question, but instead it led to
this page. I think it happens with all the FAQs, not just this RSS one; they all go to metatalk threads. Thanks.

My mobile browser (LG Voyager) shows a URL Errors whenever I try to select a "more inside", "x comments", or "x answers" link. So there's no way to read anything that's not visible on the main pages.

Any other WebKit Nightly users noticing the MeFi front page main content is being shoved below the sidebar until you hit 'Refresh'?

Is there some kind of residual April Fools joke going on? There's a weird glitch in the way MeFi displays for me over time.

WTF? How come you quit opening all MeFi links in a new page? And what are those goddam photos on the right side all about? Jeezus! I just figure out these damn digital parking meters and somebody comes up with something new.

"Recent Activity" bugginess: older posts showing up after my more recent post in the Tut thread. The timestamps are all messed up on that page, but seem OK and are in order in the post itself.

Is the header on the blue looking strange to anyone else? On mine, the "New Post," "My Profile," "Preferences," "Recent Activity" and "Favorites" links are all smooshed together underneath the search box (not the tabbed links, just the text links). I'm viewing the site in IE, WinXP, and I just noticed the smooshed links within the last hour.

If we click on the
music tag, and scroll down to see the
Users who often use this tag, we find that
CKmtl has used the tag in 65 posts, and
nkknkk has used the tag a staggering 164 times! But in fact, it's
not true. What's up?

I'm using Opera
(9.23, Windows NT 5.1; U; sv) and all I see at the Metafilter frontpage is
nothing at all (image). Mefi works fine in IE. Whatever has caused this, it must have happened during the past 12 hours.

I just posted in a thread on the blue and the more inside wasn't visible in preview. I'm on Safari. Anyone else seeing this?

I was digging through my "Activity" and discovered that, in Safari, clicking on "Older" or "Newer" opened the next page in a new window. Clicking "Older" or "Newer" in
that window opens yet another new window. And so on...
Weirdly, clicking on "Older" or "Newer" in Firefox opens the pages in new tabs. Repeatedly.

I'm trying to add someone as a contact, but when I hit the "Add Contact" button I get a white screen that says "Wrong username and password, please try again."
What gives?

There's something odd about the MetaFilter home page. A huge blank space next to the sidebar, between the date and the first post.
