So I was looking back over old posts and noticed I put my quarry program on turtle scripts. The code there was pretty old, so I figured I would update it. My old code was around 60kB, and everything was fine. My new code is around 93kB, and when I tried updating the code, it succeeded for the first part of the script, but it cut the file off at 65535 bytes (which is the unsigned int limit).
So, I was wondering if anyone knew where / to whom I could submit a bug report? Right now the code that I have is just kind of dead :(/>

Here is his forums
profile. Although he hasn't been on in over a year. I doubt he'd have any interest in doing any maintenance on the site.

Might be worth messaging him and offering to take up maintaining it for him.
For now though, I would split the script in two and make a downloader that puts it back together.

Also, your code is one that gets copied in to fresh pastes on pastebin a lot. Not sure if you were aware of that, but it's something like once or twice a week from what I can see.

Oh wow. Thank you all for the replies. I actually went to sleep that day after posting and forgot about this thread…
In the absence of the creator, I probably will just split them and make an installer, like Lupus590 suggested. I don't think I'd personally be able to take on the maintenance of the site myself and its a shame he hasn't been active in so long.

This confused me a bit though. Do you mean that people are taking my script and putting in a different pastebin? Or claiming that it is their own?
I actually did not know about this. I'm not sure what I'd do about it, but thanks for the heads up :)/>
Maybe if you could show me an example?

Here are a few.
Wow. That's a lot. I guess I'm not really opposed but why would anyone do that? It also looks like someone copied the broken turtlescripts one… Oh well. I linked to my forum thread :)/>

Truth be told, I've often thought that you could turn pastebin into a decent drinking game. If you click random pastes from the sidebar, it doesn't take you long to find something related to ComputerCraft coming through. MineCraft stuff in general is very common, and must make up a notable percentage of their total content.

Anyone know how one would offer to take up maintenance on a website? I think I would like to have a go with it.

I would also love to help out.
