Show
First fix:
  • 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.


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!

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.

The (derisive) article is in German, but I think the picture speaks for itself. This is actually on sale...

If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

Could that Dachshund look any MORE German? I love the puddin' bowl helmet!

Yogi's dog looked right at home on his R1150G/S too.

It says something like:
There are rumours of people still fond of biking in their free time. Eventhough those people are on the verge of becoming extinct. In order to take their dogs with them on the next adventure death trip (and he doesn't get teary eyes in the wind) there's fitting goggles and helmet available. If something should go wrong.

Blablabla ... the basic colours are bone white and wet nose black. Available for 26,95 in currency every gas station between Florida and Nebraska accepts.

Funny germans, hahaheeheehoho ... :|

Well, I think he looks rather more French (that's a French Uniform isn't it?):

since it's about comonwealth, I'm afraid it's more of a british uniform.
I'm not really from around here.

I know, the text mentions the commonwealth, however the British had green coats and those flat Brodie helmets up into WW2, while that looks like an Adrian helmet, which the French used, and I think they did wear blue uniforms.
