MetaTalk

Mefites are a smart bunch, but no one is perfect. Tell us, what is the wrongest comment you've made here?

Inspired by this comment:

Here is possibly my wrongest comment ever

Hmm.. nope. Can the mods, uh, modify the intro to this question? [more inside]

I'm trying to track down a post about a poster. [more inside]

I messed up. I posted my AskMe to the front page. Can someone fix that up? [more inside]

Two posts today accidentally link to Metafilter instead of their intended targets. On the main page, they link to metafilter.com, but within their individual threads, they link to their own individual threads. How is this done? Also, this seems like a pretty common mistake; I've seen it happen a few times before. To prevent the admins from having to go in and fix things, maybe the New Post code should check to see if any links point to the the main site (and if so, ask the user whether this was intended).

Ouch -- screwed up a comment in this promising thread by concreteforest. Hope someone is around with fixing powers, as it might prevent others posting.

Due to my poor observation skills, multiple previews were unable to bring to my attention the error here. There should be an "IS" between "JAPAN" and "SO"--if it isn't too much trouble, would a mod please fix my mistake?

Eek, I tried to name this thread The ending of "The Good Thief" and the AskMe RSS feed truncated it before my first double-quote which means people will click it and be spoiled! O please, please fix it!

Mathowie et al, can we get "Chacno" changed to "Chaco" in this FPP?

I screwed up. Links I posted here are all screwy somehow. Instead of telling me what I did wrong, can someone tell me how to fix it?

OK, now that's just silly. Why would someone make the lead link a link to MetaFilter when they had two perfectly good links in the body of the post?

Why is there no "X# of new posts/X# of new comments" on MeTa? would it be that hard to implement?
