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.

I'm going to be the wanker here and say that I think the hipster thing is fucking excellent! I really dig the crazy costumes and whacky social games that different groups have, it's really amazing to see this stuff as it evolves. Yes, it all looks silly as hell, but so did punk rock, and hippies, and retro ivy league/frat brats, new wave, steampunk, fucking disco man! Contrast boardtrack racers to cafe racers to sportbike power rangers to cruiser "lifestylers"... it's all batshit mad and pure entertainment! I love it! I never, ever want to be hip, it's too fun to watch from the shadows.

Hipsters have made Honda Passport scooters sought after and valuable! Holy shit! My old Ray-Ban Wayfarers are considered "cool" now! Companies are making shit out of "bakelite like resin" instead of cheap-ass plastic! Bicycles are EVERYWHERE! If you're on a road trip and your only clothes get ruined you can buy an entire outfit at Goodwill and still get into a nice restaurant as long as you've got a chain on your wallet and some glasses! Vinyl records are like the new comic books, and it's perfectly acceptable to read a comic book wearing a $3000 suit. Better than all that, for all of the single guys who still act and dress like men, go to a hipster infested city like Denver or Portland and watch the women flock to you because you're not a weenie floopy schmoop in a moth-eaten cardigan whining about how your raw denim skinny jeans stained your mock 80's canvas wallet.

Hip is for young people who give too much of a fuck about pointless shit, but you can be cool at any age and be cool forever. I can't wait to see what comes next. I really want to see what makes the hipsters cringe.

I honestly don't hate hipsters. I got off that bandwagon when I ended up at a hipster party in Oakland a couple years back, and realized that I was one of the bigger assholes in attendance.
Some of the jokes and rants about em are funny, but really I don't give a shit.
As long as you aren't an elitist asshole, then fuck it... go do your thing.
That being said, I have also encountered plenty of elitist asshole hipsters. But assholes are in every scene, so again, fuck it.

Same here. The elitists are funny as are the people who try too hard, but hey, if that's what they like, so be it.

The only scene I run from is the upper-middle-class corporate warrior one. I don't really have anything against it, but since I spend 9 hrs a day Mon-Fri being a good little office drone, I'm not going to slip into my little slipper shoes with my Ace Insurance polo shirt and drive my BMW 328xl to go play golf on the weekend. Bleh.
