If you cannot Debauch because you get an IP blacklist error, try Debauching again time. It may work immediately, it may take a few attempts. It will work eventually, I don't think I had to click debauch more than three times. Someone is overzealous at our hosting company, but only on the first couple of attempts.

Some unpleasant miscreant was firing incessant database queries at our server, which forced the Legal Department of our hosting company, via their Abuse subdivision, to shut us down. No I have none.
All I can do it button the hatches, and tighten up a few things. Such as time limits on how long you may take to compose a post and hit Debauch! As of 24/01/10, I've set that at 30 minutes for now.
To restrict further overloads, any unregistered users had to be locked out.
How do we know who is or isn't an unregistered user?
By forcing anyone who wants in to Log In.
Is that annoying?
Yes. But there's only so much the Administerrerrerr can do to keep this place running.

First fix:
Because the board got shutdown again because of a load of database, I had to fettle with the settings again.
As part of that, the server no longer stores what topics you have or haven't read.
IT IS STILL RECORDED!
But now, that information lives in a delicious cookie, rather than the forum database.
Upside: this should reduce the load of database.
Downside: if you use multiple devices to access the board, or you reject delicious cookies, you won't always have that information cookie. But the New Posts feature should take care of that.
PLEASE NOTIFY THE ADMINISTERRERRERR ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS!
- open the menu at the top
- hit New Posts to see what's actually new and browse the new stuff from there
- go back to the Forum Index
- open the menu at the top again
- click Mark forums read
this will zero the unread anything for you, so you can strive forth into the exciting world of the new cookie thing.

Since it is Australia, I guess I could get by on that.
The funny thing is that no-one in Australia drinks Fosters.
Cue commercial: Fosters. The Great Australian Marketing Campaign.
Never ever met an Australian who drinks Fosters, and I first tasted it whilst living in Viet Nam and going through a brief spell of home-sickness. A decent mouth-full of that shite had me recanting my home-sickness and pledging my allegiance to Saigon Lager (green label). Great beer for hot climates.
Australia's real "Fosters" (read: Most Drunk Beer) is Victoria Bitter:
I think the only reason that the daily beer intake is being restricted is so that the fine gentlemen who patronize this historic race are less encouraged to throw full, unwanted "stubbies" at the "piss-weak cunts" who drive the Holden and/or Ford machines which they despise. Australia has a tough, remarkably partisan crowd.
PS: Bathurst 1000 is kickarse and wish I could watch it om telly here! Huge recommendation for anyone who likes watching v8 touring cars go around a street mountain circuit.

24 beers for a three day event. Hm. Let's assume it's not a midnight-to-midnight attendance, so 24 beers for maybe 60 hours.
Two nights of not-enough sleep, about 6 hours each, so 24 beers for 48 hours of wakefulness. That's one beer every two hours. I can see how that isn't enough for some people, especially in a hot country like Australia. You'd need to top up with water, or worse, soft-drinks in between. You are left with a choice of spending half the day sober or never getting a buzz on at all. Just cruel.
They should take a lesson form the European football championship that was held jointly organized by the Netherlands and Belgium. Belgium had plenty of sports-related riots. The Netherlands had red-eyed, huggy fans blocking up the food stalls and supermarkets.

Well of course you don't like people who are stupid drunk...if you're sober. Only stupid drunk people like stupid drunk people. Then you're best friends. I believe the coming DOOM will support this theory.

Sure, they are a hell of a lot of fun. I just have a problem when they get all 'rape-y' and 'break-y' and 'fight-y', you know, how drunks get. They are fun as long as they stay in the 'WoooooooOOoh' and 'I love you man, no really, I means it. You are the, you and me, and you, you are the best, the best guy ever, I love you." phase of being drunk. But when they get to the rage part of the evening, the humor fades for me.
Otherwise... hilarious.

good thing I get to the "vomit all over" phase right after the "love you man no really" without the rage phase.
24 seems not so much tho, not after what I saw in france where you're lucky to be alive if you can witness the start of the 24h race before you passed out on the floor.
