- Or to quote from a book I own: - This page is accidentally left blank - I always thought that is funny, but I think they do that to ensure blank pages aren’t skipped by the printer. - Probably helps protect the pages before being bound too (at least historically) 
- That would be - This page is intentionally left blank - Theirs is a little different… 
 
- Just once I want one of those to say what it really means. - Please don’t return this book, it hurts our numbers. We just had an extra page ¯\(ツ)/¯ 
- Maybe to avoid all the page numbering after that being shifted? - Maybe a play on “This page intentionally left blank” from the IBM manuals - deleted by creator 
- That would make sense. It’s a playful book with many jokes in it 
 
- It’s the very first page and the second one is page 2 - So then it would affect literally all the pages in the book, if it were removed!?!:-P - Well, it’s not uncommon to leave the first page blank or with some generic stuff. Someone else already pointed out that it might be an inside joke

- Failed to load media - Hmmm. I was having issues with images on my lemmy host taking forever to propagate so I used postimages for this one. The gremlin is following me. - I’ll attempt to fix. 
- Very fitting! - Took me until I saw OP’s answer to realize it wasn’t a joke

- Seems to work for me, now. - I’m on ttrpg.network, using the Jerboa client on Android. - Yeah, works for me now too. Something must have been changed. 
 
 
- And that’s why it’s called “production environment” I guess 
- So this is why everyone’s getting e. coli.
