EVERYTHING IS MARKED UNREAD!!
click her for the instant fix
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!

2024 LOGIN/Posting ISSUES
Click if you have a problem.

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.

This is so cool, I wanna share with people, but I don't know where to post it or how to precisely describe it (can you tell I'm strung out on too much caffeine?)

For all of us who work in incoming call centers, Jaeger, I hope someone blows one of your fingers off or something.

Oh...damnit... :mrgreen:

Actually, that is a cool list. As a call center worker, about 90% of the time, I'd rather they just get through anyway. We've got a very simple phone system in place here (ssn, zip code, DOB, and then you come through to us), and people STILL throw ever-loving shit-fit tantrums about it. I just want to send them to my Visa card and then maybe they'll appreciate how easy ours is.

I just press "0" until I get someone, works every time, and if it doesn't then I just hang up and return whatever product it is that has caused me so much stress. Then burn their office down :evil:

My bit of advice if you are calling your cell phone service provider. . . . .

"If you are calling to open a new account, press or say '1', if you are calling with regards to an existing accout, press or say '2'."

Guess who gets to an operator faster. . . .
