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.

Secretly, I "may" have done a jump or two in some of these spots on my bike. Still, this may be the first time in a long time I've wanted to own a car.

Some sights of my fair city

I am not inclined to talk smack about Block. I couldn't drive like that with all the editing in the world.

That won't stop me from being curmudgeon though. While I'm totally impressed by the skill of drift drivers, it kind of gets old for me really quick. Kind of like a non-stop guitar solo without any chord structure or melody to give context to the virtuoso flourishes. I like seeing drivers (or riders) push the boundaries of their machines in pursuit of some goal, and love watching a vehicle slide . . . . hell, I even love a good burnout now and then. But when it just goes on and on, I kind of space out. I actually enjoy Bullet more than that.

It isn't that I don't enjoy watching stuntaz, it is just that my attention span runs thin. Strangely, trials exhibitions don't wear me out as much, even though they are just as wanky.

Now I feel like a negative dick. I did get a big kick out of the jump.

I can only dream of having such wheelie skills.

On a side note, since the vid has gone "viral", San Francisco is demanding payment for the removal of the rubber from the road. I kid you not! Rubber, from the road, umm, isn't that what the fucking road is made for?!!! Sometimes this town just pisses me off!!!!
