[SOLVED] Can't post comments in the AUR
Is anyone else having problems posting comments in package pages for the AUR? Firefox just times out, and Chromium gives me "HTTP ERROR 500". I've been trying since about 24 hours ago.

Thanks @jasonwryan. Weird. I tried two different systems, two different browsers, and two different networks, and it keeps failing.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't post comments in the AUR
Since 500 is an internal server error, the problem might be tied to your account - did you re-login to the AUR during the affected timeframe?

Yes, I did. Could my account be blocked for some reason? This is me.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't post comments in the AUR
I've been blocked in the past as well 
- for submitting too many requests. It expires after 24 hours, IIRC. You can always ask a TU in #archlinux-aur to look at it for you.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't post comments in the AUR
Aaaaahhh... It's because I tried to include an emoji ? in my comment. Apparently this causes an unspecified error in the site! Once I removed it, the comment submitted fine.
[EDIT] It looks like the the forum doesn't like the emoji either, but at least it doesn't prevent me submitting a comment! It was just U+1F602 FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY.
[EDIT2] bug submitted

That's a feature, not a bug!
