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.
If you have problems logging in, posting, or doing anything else, please get in touch.
You know the email (if you don't, see in the registration info below), you know where to find the Administerrerrerr on the Midget Circus.
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.
Again, if you have any problems: get in touch.

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.

My gut turned into a knot watching that. As he was approaching I was thinking to myself, "he better slow down, that looks like a cornice."

Snow machine. Snowmobile. Sled. Supposedly invented here in NH. People from all around come here every winter to kill themselves on the trails. Darwinistic tourism and recreation.

What's with all the hate?
I see no squidly behavior at all; dude just underestimated the overhang of a cornice. Hell, even the most seasoned of pros fuck that one up (Craig Kelly died that way, and he made his entire life around being a badass in the snow).

Yes, but it's a different creature compared to motorcycles. Snowmobiles have a shorter season and their usage is dependent on a narrower conditions range. Less available time to ride = a lot of inexperience. We have an industry here for snowmobile tourism, with rentals and "Sled and Stay" packages. Since you don't need an endorsement to ride or rent one, there are a lot of people who are thumbing the throttle who really shouldn't. Many more crashes due to DWI. Then there's thin ice on lakes. Someone is always going through, like the two drunk yahoos who found themselves on open water on the big lake this past Saturday night. At least they were rescued.
There are also the skimmers who bomb across open water. Some don't make it to the other side.
I'm not saying that snowmobiling is bad. I had fun with my limited experience. There just seems to be more people bringing their stupid to the sport.
As for the video, I would have bailed, screaming, and then gotten up from my impression to find yellowed snow.
