So I'm working on a volunteer project (which is seriously hampering my DOOM prep) and every year we repair a jacked up house for a different crippled old lady. This time, among other things, her door has been kicked in. I did some time as a finish carpenter in college, so I've put in doors from scratch, but haven't necessarily repaired them. So I went to the ultimate source of correct information....youtube. I came across this video, and you really just need to watch it to see why its funny. humor really gets moving around 2:01, but the set-up is good too.
sorry no can embed.

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.

First fix:
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!
- 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.

Re: Unintentional Hilarity
A solid door-frame, and a matching solid door, are of course a very good start. But they wanna get in, they'll still get in, perhaps not as easily, but using an axe or crowbar or the like.
Over here, if you wanna secure your door against being broken down, secure it well enough for the insurance company to be happy, this sort of thing tends to be top of the list:
Mounted on a solid door, and walls, these things will withstand even battering rams and the like. Also all those other tricks like forcing the door off of it's hinges. Close as you are likely to get to a solid steel bar across your door. Fire department don't like 'em, I hear.
Red buttons are quick release to secure the door in a hurry, if you gotta. Can be unlocked from the outside. The cylinder is, of course, in that bar and not the door, so inaccessible to begin with, otherwise tamper protected, too.

If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

DG, over here we just shoot em. But since I'm already fixing a jamb, I looked for options. Besides, if I'm going to go medieval with the crossbar, I'd rather put in a draw bridge.

When I have a house of my own there will be a "water feature" you know, like a garden fountain kind of thing, six feet deep, ten feet across surrounding the whole house filled with fucking lava and alligators, fucking FIRE PROOF ALLIGATORS!
