  • My Apologies..

    From Mike Dippel@954:895/2 to All on Sunday, November 02, 2025 08:28:51
    It seems that when we switch back and forth from Daylight Savings to standard time, the script for Stats goes haywire. It spams the area with numerous messages. I hopefully fixed it on my end.

    My suggestion is to just keep a maximum of 2 for these areas. That way, the overflow will disappear.

    I will try to do a better job in the future ):

    Sorry for the extra work on your end to delete them :(
    Glad I caught it when I did.

    I just set the message counter to 5 and then ran message cleanup. Got rid of 1755 messages! :)
