Here’s the conversation showing how I used ChatGPT to help award donation perks.

[So yes, it also misunderstood what I wanted to post and gave me a summary first. This is the detailed version, including that correction.]

Dale my GPT project for AH used to be able to access the BBS but now it cannot for downtown been about a month now? I even tried fresh chats out of the project. Any thoughts?

I just tested them again now, September 14.

Unfortunately, still no. The HiTech BBS remains inaccessible through my web retrieval system:

* BBS main index → 502 Bad Gateway
* Thread 412969 page 1 (.0) → cache miss
* Page .15 → 502 Bad Gateway
* Page .30 → 502 Bad Gateway
* Page .45 → 502 Bad Gateway

So the situation hasn’t materially changed since we last tested. And again, your links themselves aren’t malformed; the BBS server/retrieval path simply isn’t cooperating with my browser.

If you can open it normally on your phone/computer, that further points to an access incompatibility between HiTech’s BBS and my web-fetching infrastructure rather than the site actually being down.

It sounds all very exciting and everything, but it has nothing to do with this thread. Take it elsewhere.

my guess is it's sending too many requests at once

I do like hearing the 262 engine howling as it blows by me.  Glad it goes to a good cause

lol OK I probably should’ve just asked for it really loved what you said and it got a little closer and worked around it, but it still can’t access length completely but it told me to leave you alone about it and it’ll figure it out. It got a lot closer than before for some reason part of the problem is when I gave it a bunch of pages to look at it, tried to do it all at once, instead of just starting from the beginning.

Part user error, part lazy AI lol. Will donate on my next check soon if it’s still open.
