PLEASE LOGIN TO SEE ANYTHING.
This measure is inconvenient, yes, but necessary at present.
Click below for more information.
EVERYTHING IS MARKED UNREAD!!
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.
Automatic registration is disabled for security reasons.
But fear not!
You can register!
Option the First:
Please drop our fearless Administerrerrerr a line.
Tell him who you are, that you wish to join, and what you wish your username to be. The Administerrerrerr will get back to you. If you're human, and you're not a damn spammer, expect a reply within 24 hoursish. Usually quicker, rarely slower.
Unfortunately, the Contact Form is being a total primadonna right now, so please send an email to the obvious address.
Posting this address in clear text is just the "on" switch for spambots, but here is a hint.
Option the Second:
Find us on Facebook, in the magnificent
Umah Thurman Midget Circus
Join up there, or just drop the modmins a message. They will pass any request on to the Administerrerrerr for this place.
A forum for the off topic stuff. Everything from religion to philosophy to sex to humor (see why it used to be called Buggery?). All manner of rude psychological abuse is welcome and encouraged.

Since you know Google is going to own your ass one day, why not sign up for an email address now?
I have 49 invites, ping me at misskellen at gmail dot com if you would like one.
and please be putting something gmail/utmc related in the subject line as to not make me think you are trying to sell me porn, or give me an exorbitant amount of money. (side note: i have received a whopping total of NO spam since i've had this address....).
have lovely days all
xoxo

How the fuck did you get 49 invites? I only got 4 or so when I signed up a few months ago.
If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

Bloody hell.......I had four invites left, and now I have 50 all of a sudden......I guess they didn't get the exponential growth they were hoping for.....
The nice thing about gmail (and really the only point in it's favour) is the fact that google and thus gmail is likely to be around for a few decades to come, so a gmail account is one way to be contacted that will stay alive for much longer than usual. But you have to get in early or you will end up with a name like
steve.smith95723953@gmail.com.......
BTW, should muppet or smashinator run out of invites, drop me a pm for an invite.

Please enlighten me, guys, what's this invite stuff?
If at first you don't succeed,
then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

GMAIL is still in beta mode, so the fine people at google have made it "invite only" to get an email address with them. i'm sure it's all explained in detail at
www.gmail.com I think that they have some other special reasons, but I don't remember them.
WANT ONE? it really bothers me that i can't get rid of them

Sure Mupp, just send your spam ... uh, invitation over to
badi@kingsley.co.za
Maybe it's a good idea to register in the early stages so I don't end up as
badi987654321@gmail.com or sum.
thx

If someone has a spare invite...

Some days you can look to your left as you ride and see your Valkyrie- pacing you and waiting for her moment...
Days like that, the only appropriate reaction is to call out "Let's dance, beautiful!" and then twist the throttle to it's stop.

Boy,
I feel unwanted. I only have 10 invites left/granted.

I'm going to giggle if Google decides: "Naw, fuck this" and dumps it all.
You can buy status, but sucking is immutable. After a certain point, upgrading only makes you suck more ostentatiously.
