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.

Long story short (-ish).

On May 28, the biggest harcore show in the country is happening at Webster Hall in NYC. ProblemAddict had already snagged me a pre-sale ticket to the event (Gorilla Biscuits, fucking Agnotic Front, Sick Of It All, Terror, etc. etc. etc) so I could link up and go.

My kid got wind of this event via my Bookface page, and lost her shit (she is a huge Terror fan, among other bands attending). So, to spend awesome daddy-daughter time with badass hardcore music adventure, complete with a trip to Philly and NYC (a teenaged kid's dream), I decided to book her a plane ticket to get to DC to go with me.

Unfortunately, while waiting for her to get clearance to go from home, the pre-sale of the tickets ended (by one day!). The only way to get the remaining tickets for the show was to walk in to one of 3 places about NYC and pick them up by hand and in cash (I called to try to get them sent, even calling Civ from Gorilla Biscuits - an old acquaintance - but no luck. First come, first serve.

Now I am distraught. My poor timing boned the whole thing up. My kiddo is coming to DC, and I have not enough tickets to get us into the show. The last hope is to try and walk up to the box office on the day of the hugest hardcore show on Earth and hope I can get one. Dicey. Gambly. I am at risk of being Shittiest Dad Of Ever now. I am ready to drive up to NYC tomorrow to get these golden tickets, but sure that the lag of a day will mean the end of the adventure. In desparation, I put out an interweb call for any help I could find.

Who answers? Piccini! Not only did he pretty much instantly volunteer to help, but he took time out of his life to drive into Greenwich Village to Generation Records and snag me a couple of the last 25 tickets available for an event he doesn't really even give a damn about. Now I am back to Best Dad Evar, I will get to share this cool adventure with my daughter, and all is right again.

Thank you, Pete. You are a man of gold.

:D :D :D

Hey, it was an adventure. Glad to help.
:D

Really though, it was a quick trip, no traffic, only got a little turned around in the labyrinth of lower Manhattan and I even found a real, legal, parking space.
