EVERYTHING IS MARKED UNREAD!!

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.

Cat's new house

Post by FastCat » Fri Nov 25, 2011 7:00 am

OK, I know it's not "headline news" but I have been mostly absent from most of my typical "extracurricular activities" over this past summer because me and my partner have spent all the money, effort, and energy at our disposal to purchase, make-ready, and move-into a new house. This is the culmination of a lot of hard work and I finally talked Mardi into giving me the "go ahead" to snap some photos and post them online yesterday as we have the new place straightened-up and "finished" enough to have guests over for a meal.

Please note that there are still some small things missing/incomplete (like the lack of a threshold on the transition from the kitchen/dining area to the living-room floor) but I have been wanting to post this stuff online.

It is very nice!

Yeah, they own the place, they just let us stay here because they like us. ;)

I dunno if you can tell in the photos or not - but the sill at the bottom of the large window in the living-room - it's like 12" wide so that the furry-ferociousness can sit there and sun herself and keep an eye on the world outside.

Seriously, owning actual real-estate property is a pretty hefty achievement. Congrats!

Looks fine to me, but the cat is definitely not impressed.

Do you have a work area/garage/shop?

You have excellent taste in aesthetics. Well done. Makes me wish my house wasn't 150+ years young!

Very nice. Somehow I would have expected your house to be... greasier. :D

I love all the different textures in each room. Along with many, many perches for kitties to survey their realm.

You should be proud, it looks quite classy.
