EVERYTHING IS MARKED UNREAD!!

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.

Somebody thought of this. Probably spent a lot of time thinking about it. Then it was scripted, script-edited, storyboarded, it was casted, somebody scouted and secured the location, the stunts were developed and tried out, vehicles were hired, props manufactured and cataloged, pyrotechnics developed, the whole crew was carted out to the location, roadblocks were put up, cameras were set up and god knows how many run throughs and takes it took until it was in the can.

A skater in a striped shirt with camo underwear. With a sex doll. A bazooka. WTF?!

And the character is actually called "skater" by the other guy - if you gotta give an incidental character a name, shouldn't it be something else than what he'd be credited as if he hadn't been named?

That must've been some 80's movie. That's when people had money to piss away on completely inane features that, if it weren't for the internet a decade and a half later, would never see the light of day. I bet there's another hour and a half of that piece of shit out there somewhere.

According to the IMDB, there is:

Who the heck is Andy Sidaris and why does his work warrant release as a collection? And a director's cut special edition, no less?!


I do remember similarly horrible films being used for shelf-filler in video stores over here during the 90s.
I think the owner of the local place bought them so people would actually talk to him as there was no other way to figure out whether some five or ten year old film you couldn't remember hearing about was any good.

Was the destruction of a perfectly good blow-up partner via bazooka truly germane to the storyline?
