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.

I just went to grab some groceries and people were bitching about it. I've been down in the Ft. Worth area for about 9 months now.. It has snowed several times this winter.. and there has been accumulation. I can't understand how people do NOT know how to drive in this shit.. It happens here.

I'm glad to be a yankee.

you have only been here nine months.

typical north texas snow happens once or twice only for a day or two in late january, february, or march. usually only one snow a year is enough to close stuff down.

the snows this year were VERY early, in the fall even. and what is coming down now is heavier than i've seen since i've lived here, for 12 years.

that is why texans don't know how to drive in this shit. a day or two a year is not enough practice.

I figured that NTX has seen snow like this at some other point in history.

not recently. so the demographic that has no choice but to get out and drive to work rain or shine (18-30 years of age) most likely has no experience.

Ah. I see. The older, wiser folks are creeping around and getting in the way. On a side note.. the older, wiser folks would be doing that if it was 95 degrees and sunny.

Well, we just set a new record for snowfall in Dallas of 8.7 inches. We used to get about 2 feet when I lived in Lubbock so I'm used to it. Well they just cancelled school for the kids and they get President's Day off so 4 day weekend. Score!

You guys want to see flat-out terrifying driving conditions?

Try a half inch on the ground in Vegas or Atlanta.

My sister lives in atlanta. She actually learned to drive there as well. Atlanta got 2 inches of snow the other day. She called me frantic, wanting to know how to drive in the snow.

Mook was telling me that all states have had snow this year.
Found something to backup his claim:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Forty-nine states have snow now, from the Gulf Coast's Redneck Riviera to the skyscrapers of Dallas.

The lone holdout? Hawaii.

Although snow falls every winter on Hawaii's two tallest volcanoes, the National Weather Service in Honolulu said there was no snow in the state Friday.

SCIENCE FAIR: January was Earth's warmest on record

Snow had even fallen in the Florida Panhandle and along the South Carolina coast. However, snow has been lighter than usual in New England. Forecasters say El Nino has driven many of this year's storms southward.

Weather service meteorologist Brian Korty says it's extremely rare to have so many states with snow.
