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?

Yes. But there's only so much the Administerrerrerr can do to keep this place running.

Agrees with supersweet.

Have you been going out long? If not, might I suggested dumping her before you have multiple fights about why a truck with a 15 inch lift kit is a bad idea...

A truck with a 15" lift kit is a FANTASTIC idea.
It just doesn't have any business going over 30 mph, and should mainly be used in muddy swamps and on mountain trails.

I'd be a hell of a lot less worried about the eating ganja part if she wasn't all thumbs when driving, no matter what the road or traffic conditions.

Either or is bad enough. Both of them together is fucking stupid.

I'd suggest you get used to it. There are more people in our country who think of driving as flexible 'me time' than there are who think its a solemn responsibility. This is the reason that we will be shifting over to automated cars within our lifetime. Somewhat regrettably for the few who enjoy our pastime of motorbiking, it will be necessary to remove the two-wheeled vehicles from the roadway system to make this safety system a reality, but we may still be able to enjoy two-wheeling in specialty parks, or by traveling to less-developed parts of the world.

You know, it's just this same fantastical, quasi-scientific ballyhoo that caused mass hysteria in 1938, with the broadcast of War of the Worlds.

Were I in your shoes, I'd lecture her incessantly until she either ceased her imbecilic behavior, or left me.

Either outcome would be acceptable.
