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.

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.

On the plus side, you can expect to see fewer bikes on eBay with descriptions like, "Salvage title but will need minimal work to return to the street. Bike has missing rearsets, broken levers and lots of damage to the fairing. Headlight is broken. Rear fender is missing, as is license plate bracket. Muffler is stove in from something hitting it from behind."

I can't tell if you guys think that this is cool or not but I think it is fucking retarded.
Practicing wheelies with help from your friends, on a machine? Here is how you learn how to do a wheelie;
Step 1: Borrow someone's bike. (Important, DO NOT familiarize yourself with it)
Step 2: Stand over the bike, but don't sit on it.
Step 3: Rev the motor to about 3/4 of the way on the tach.
Step 4: Pop the clutch HARD. (This is important, be sure that you have no idea how this person's clutch engages.)
Step 5: If you are still standing with both feet on the ground and you still have both hands on the handlebars, this means that the motorcycle is approximately over your head with the tires pointed at the sky and has transformed into a gyroscope.
Step 6: Saving the bike, make sure to exert enough force on the handlebars before you let go, to make the bike do a complete flip and land back on the squishy rubber wheels as opposed to the crunchy plastic on all of the rest of the bike. Also, aim the bike towards a lawn, grass, or other soft earth like area. Concrete is less forgiving.
CONGRATULATIONS, you have just mastered the wheelie.
Now it is time to impress your friends, drive there as fast as possible and start showing off.
Remember, if you can do a wheelie and stand on the seat while doing it, all women in the world will want to sleep with you, and you will get your pick, so start pulling those handlebars really hard, taillights are easy to replace.

Pretty fucking clever if you ask me.
It's kinda sad that doing wheelies and showing off is the prime focus of so many on bikes. Enough, in fact, that that gizmo was invented. But whatever, a training tool is a training tool. Would you rather the squids practice finding the balance point of their bikes out on public roads?
I, for one, know that as soon as my front tire gets about a foot or so off the ground, I feel like I'm gonna go over backwards, and I put it down. A gizmo like that could really help me out in the mono department.
Of course, so can my dirt bike, which is what I do, but at the risk of way more damage and hospital bills.

I've done that thing, it doesn't really help at all. Yes, it tells me that the balance point is wayyy farther than I feel like it is when I'm actually wheelie-ing on the road, but the feeling simply doesn't translate.
