EVERYTHING IS MARKED UNREAD!!
click her for the instant fix
Show
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.

Yes, it's a commercial for what appears to be a dutch cellphone, but still, it's a thing of beauty.


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

I love it when you see something so cool that is so simple. So seemingly obvious that I'm sure it must have been done before, but brilliant just the same.

When it first started, I thought I was going to see someone on a trials bike riding it.

From an engineering standpoint I watched the entire thing a second time with the sound turned off and enjoyed it even more than the music. Having spent many years as a surveyor, the structure of that is so fucking awesome, imagine working on something like that! When my mother was in town this past week I drove her around to some of the buildings I built before the economy went tits up, but it all pales in comparison to taking the family out into the forest to see the wooden music machine you built.
Fuck, my hands are shaking thinking about it.
It's time for Humankind to ditch the imaginary friends of our species' childhood and grow the fuck up.
