Banning bright yellow nerf guns and treating them like real guns? Are you kidding me?
http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_13922672
BOULDER — If you're caught walking around the University of Colorado at Boulder with a Nerf gun, you could be arrested. Notices have been posted around the campus dorm buildings, warning students that Nerf-gun sightings will be treated like real-gun sightings.
The notices have gone up the same week that Colorado State University's student government voted to oppose a ban on real guns for those with concealed-weapons permits.
Nerf guns began popping up around CU this week, after some students started playing the popular game "Humans vs. Zombies." It's similar to the game of tag.

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.

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.

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

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.

Have you been to Boulder? That town has NOTHING to do with reality. In all likelyhood, the answer to your question is "yes". Why? Because Boulder P.D.'s former policy of shooting you in the chest with a taser could kill you.Moto_Myotis wrote:Does that mean that if you shoot a Nerf gun, University PD might come by and shoot you with a real gun?

Oddly enough, there was no mention of tasing people in the head (like zombies), so I guess that's still fair game.

In mass I had to get a permit from the police just to carry pepper spray...after that, I decided it wasn't even worth hassling to bring my rifles up with me..
That is promising as far as the carrying concealed on campus, I've always thought it was a good idea. Mixed with some terrible, of course, but overall a good idea.

Related, but a bit off the topic...
What is with the complete pussification of Super Soakers? Did any of you play with them as a kid? I know I did. My best one was this like 1.5 gallon backpack of water with a 4 nozzle gun that was basically this crazy water cannon.
Now their shit is all lame. Looking at the Nerf site, I don't see some of the madness that used to exist, but they still have some mildly cool designs. I still have some of my old Nerf guns that have the velocity to put someone's eye out

I did buy a beater Volvo 240 from a boulder psychic once. We had agreed to terms involving a down payment, then the next day she reneged and changed the terms. I didn't mention it to her, but I was thinking that since she is was a fucking psychic couldn't she see that I was going to be good on the original terms?

My 16 year-old came home with a nerf machine gun that would make Rambo happy. Belt-fed, takes about 17 "C" cell batteries, and fires 120 rounds a minute. I'm finding Nerf darts fucking EVERYWHERE.

That would weld their asses shut.

"Buy"some? Dude, you've really got to get over here more. We have awesome Nerf-gun wars all the time. Problem is the darts are constantly all over the house. Metalredneck, I feel your pain.roadmissile wrote:Anyone else have the urge to buy some nerf guns and head for Boulder with me?

My personal favorite is the Maverick, it's a barrel six-shooter, but it will take any kind of Nerf dart.
Oh, and fuck The People's Republic of Boulder, can't stand that fucking town that hypocrisy built.
