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.

Tell her to get off the pill and switch back to condoms. Then in a week or so after she has cooled down have a talk. When you then discover it wasn't the fault of the pill, cut out for sure. Leave a big turd in her bedroom and a note telling her ...your dog did this.

Shit, what I've learned about you here is you're a giving and caring person. You're easy-going and generous. People like you seem to take more shit than others because they know they can dump alot on you, and you absorb whatever toxins they give you and you somehow neutralize it. But eventually a sponge can only absorb so much.

3 years? That's waaaaay too long for just a roommate. I've been in similar situations, and they practically sucked my life out of me. I've always been fortunate to have a good home to come home to--from childhood to today. Except for some rough patches in my marriage, my home has always been my shangri-la where I can unwind and get back to me and what keeps me happy and whole.

Crazybitch needs someone else to dump her irrational psychobaggage on, and you need to bail--if not immediately, then real soon, some timeframe where you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and can hold your breath until then. Money isn't easy, but you have a shit ton more years to live and ride and hump and crash and enjoy, and if you wanna keep being the good and giving person that you are, you neeed to tend to yourself.

Maybe pin a bill for two-hours of carburettor work on it with a big red x and a scribbled "we're even" on it.

Now, don't get doubts. Don't get weak. Focus on the objective, the objective is all. At some point, you may think you made a mistake.
That may even be true (though not likely, considering your description), but it's now irrelevant.
Even if it turns out a mistake, it'll be a chapter closed, not months or years of wondering why you didn't do it.
You've made your decision, stick with it, no matter how appealing it is to change it.
You have an objective. Anything else in there is just noise. Noise which it will pay to placate, but just noise. Make no concessions which you cannot break, make any concession which you can break if it makes things flow smoother.

If she gets all emotional about how it sucks that you move out and may even start crying, you may want to drop a hint that you are open to changing your mind, BUT ONLY PRETEND. If you reject an emotional appeal, chances are, she'll turn psycho on you. Unnecessary noise.
If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

Fingers crossed she won't change her mind and it's smooth sailing!

Sad thing is that (says my other female roommate) she will be ceasing the birth control shortly, because she knows it's making her insane.

So in about a month and a half, maybe even less, she will be all back to normal. The damage, however, has probably been done; we haven't spoken a word in weeks.

Stick with the plan; the damage has definitely been done.

But good for her too, seriously.
