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.

Post by tumbler » Wed Jan 27, 2010 6:16 pm

All i can say is, THANK GOD IT'S NOT PITTSBURGH! Living in pittsburgh (and a very large surrounding area) when the Steelers are in the play-off's is like living in a football stadium, filled with excited fools. Everyone is transformed into a retired player with a mindless, unwanted option.

I can't stand that the Steelers have won so many superbowls. It gives these people a football fan god form or something. You can't go anywhere that doesn't have some stupid poster/sign/banner/tshirt that has superbowl rings on it. They are honestly considered hero's around here.

As of late, it seems no one is talking about football. Everyone walks around a little less bounce in thier step. Hockey seems to take priority. But for some reason, i dont mind hockey as much. i guess they are a little less paid, and a lot more worked..


I'm wondering if it is that much worse in pittsburgh, or of its like this everywhere? I need to get out more.

I would much rather spend a week in a city whose team was going to the Superbowl than be anywhere for the week before Christmas.

My team sucks...didn't get there. Don't care who wins.

The only Superbowl commercial I remember was many years ago when my team won it's first Superbowl. A shot of a V-65 Magna doing a burnout as it took off down the dragstrip. Haven't been impressed since...

38 years of Superbowl Ads:

Browsing through them I noticed another m/c related commercial. Honda taking a poke at Kawasaki.

You are all doing it wrong. On animal planet they have the "PUPPY BOWL". This is the only reason that you should even bother waking up on that day.

The passing game leaves a lot to be desired but the crowd goes crazy if someone poops on the field.

Good point. I'm not sure you understand the severity of it though.

Christmas shoppers seem to be cruel, greedy, selfish, brainwashed, trampling machines.. Football fans are proud, cocky, arrogant, and mostly drunk, and they love to let you know it. I guess it's whichever you can stand more.

Maybe i just hate everyone?

In the past I've had parties where the rule was, "Talk all you want during the game, but you had better shut the fuck up during the commercials." Needless to say, drinking games were involved. Rumor has it there were actually four quarters, but none of us has any empirical proof of this. :mrgreen:

I love football. I love baseball. I love hockey. I love rugby. I love naked mud wrestling. I love crew. I love kickball. I love sports.

I am far too competitive of a person not to love sports.
If given the opportunity, I will always want to play rather than watch.

I will be watching the Superbowl while eating nachos and napping on and off during the day.

Does this mean at Ragnarok we are not going to play a game of touch football? Damn.

I was really looking forward to east vs west.
