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.

click her for the instant fix

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.

Wife just got laid off. Fucking fuckity fuck! We were doing reasonably well too. We've got a months worth of severance to find her a new gig. On the up side, she won't have to work for a douchebag frat brat any more.

That blows.
I hope she comes out ahead and finds a good boss to work for. They do exist!
And if it helps (I'd guess it wouldn't right now, but maybe later), it took me 1 month to find a new gig. Granted, I have to drive all the way across the state weekly, but I feel it's worth it for now. It's only a 6-month contract, so the commuting will come to an end.
Hang in there!

Fack, good luck though. Do what you can to enjoy the time off, it can be fun at first!

Thanks all for the good thoughts. Her mood could've gone either way, and she's hitting the ground running. I sure do love that woman. I'm sure there'll be some ups and downs in the coming weeks, but we've got our game faces on for the moment. She's already applied for a job with the state as a fraud investigator, and is starting to pluck at the networking strings. Fingers crossed.
@ Pintgudge- The job she's leaving was an office/operations manager for a small investment firm. She also has a law degree and worked defending Snohomish county in civil suits for a number of years.

positive vibes, and all that assorted hippie nonsense to Ms C!
Shout out if you need other contacts etc. Feel free to fire a shot across the bow on the ZK DL too, you never know who knows who, and if any of those who's need something done that might fit.
Cheers,
