Right, so I have a question.
The motto on both blackletter.org and the board is "Fighting the Gangster Frankenstien Earphone Radio Slavery Big Brother Conspiracy at all costs"
So, I was just wondering...who the fuck is FrankenstIEn?

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.

If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

Shouldn't the American spelling have been "Frankenstine"?
Whatever. What cracks me up is that I read that line up there hundreds of times and never spotted it...on the other hand, for years I believed that Arthur's best friend called himself Ford Perfect...

It's that whole I before E except after C or when in Germany (who bloody invented putting I's and E's together, along with long strings of consonants....or was the the Fins?). Really tho there are a bunch of words in American that follow the German laws with I's and E's, like "their" and "foreign" but somehow "fried" and "fiend" are all Americanized. And then there is the Irish thing that totally fucks me up "Old MacDonald had a farm ei ei o". Bugger, us bikers aren't illiterate, it's THE MAN trying to fuck us around again!!!!
Oh, and Blackletter fonts were the earliest fonts used with the invention of the printing press. They resemble the blackletter callygraphy of that time. They are often called gothic script, and were and still are widely used for printing religious texts. When we created the UTMC we felt that "Blackletter of the new breed" was a good metaphor to the idea that we are creating our own faith/philosophy.
If I remember correctly, www.blackletter.com is owned by a graphic designer/illustrator who rides a BMW motorcycle. Some nice work there too.

They swore it was the correct one, but swearing doesn't make a sprocket fit where it doesn't want to. --WeAintFoundShit
