Is it just me, or does the server go linkdead every time i open the petition window? Didn\'t find any other post about it here, so I thought I\'d throw it out there. Seems to be very reproducable for me at least.

OK, perhaps a little more detail is in order. It doesn\'t necessarily seem to happen only when I open the petition window (though it was for me last night). I just (as in right now) submitted a petition and the server went linkdead. It was right after the server was restarted to add the food items for the tavern cook. It is possible that this is a coincidence, but it\'s happened to me several times already, and always after I\'ve either submitted a petition, or simply opened the petition window.
Perhaps it is related to the length of my posts? The text I submitted is rather long, so I suppose it could be a buffer overrun in the server code related to petitions. Anyway, I\'ve submitted two petitions:
- one relating to a player not being able to ask a question in the help channel: they kept being told they couldn\'t ask another question, yet there were no active questions for them.
- another relating to the lowest area in the old dungeon: there is currently no way to get out without dying or asking a GM for help
Anyway, I don\'t want to experiment with it too much since crashing the server may not get me too many good karma points :P

Actually this is the moment to test server crash bugs, those need fixing first, so...get as much info
