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.

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.

breaking the woman's code
WORDS WOMEN USE
******************************
FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and
you need to shut up.
FIVE MINUTES
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only
five
minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game
before
helping around the house.
NOTHING
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something," and you
should be
on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'Nothing' usually end in
"Fine".
GO AHEAD
This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
LOUD SIGH
This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often
misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot
and
wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with
you over
"Nothing".
THAT'S OKAY
This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to
a man.
"That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before
deciding
how and when you will pay for your mistake.
THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say "You're
welcome".

I've always hated that Shite.
I've heard just about every stand-up comic doing similar material all my life. I still wonder why it's such a common theme.
everybody knows this problem exists, and yet there is no effort to correct it.
I hate the fact that most women will say "nothing" when you ask what's wrong instead of just coming out and saying what the problem is.
I know this post is meant to be 'funny' but there's just enough truth to it to be UN-funny.
I've never been able to respect anyone who won't say EXACTLY what they mean. If they have a problem with me, they need to tell me because I'm NOT a telepath, I communicate with words..
Giving 'permission' (as in 'Go Ahead' being a dare) and then getting pissed off when they get taken at their word is chickenshit.
The Human Race will be better off as a species when we quit teaching our daughters to express themselves in doubletalk and let them be direct.

You can't forget the all time favorite fight starting phrase, "How od these pants look?" Granted that sometimes they want to know, but it seems to be a trap with few safe answers, they just figue the cop out too quick...

how does my ...
Being married for 30 years means that I am quite familiar w/ the "code". Don't forget these...
Does this make me look fat? Answer...ALWAYS NO
How do you like my....hair...outfit...(any food item)...? NEVER GIVE AN NEGATIVE OPINION, IT WILL ONLY LEAD TO GRIEF. ONLY ANSWER IN A POSITIVE, SOMEWHAT BELIEVABLE WAY.
What are you smirking about? I CAN'T COVER THIS UP...IF I THINK I'M WINNING OR GETTING AWAY W/ SOMETHING...ITS TOO GOOD TO HOLD IT IN. I'LL TAKE A RATION OF SHIT FOR IT, BUT IT WILL BE WORTH IT!!!
So...that being said, I don't know why these "codes" exist, but they seem to be all pervasive in our culture. Is it something genetic? Cultural? My youngest daughter, age 28 is getting married this week-end and so far I've not seen much of this stereotypical bahavior in her. She's been liveng w/ her boyfriend for about 6 years, so she's had plenty of opportunity to show her colors.
OK...now an off the subject moment. Father of the Bride Wedding Toast. w/ apologies to Tommy Chong...

My problem might be centered around being too honest. As a friend pointed out years ago, honesty can be a weapon. So I always answer honestly. It does have a good long term payoff tho'...deaconblooz wrote: Does this make me look fat? Answer...ALWAYS NO

Most of the time I try to pass the buck. I just go, "The other ones look better" I haven't had that one backfire yet, but most of the time they stay I'm too into my bikes and bail very quickly so it ends up being a one shot deal...

As for previous comments, I'll admit guilt of using code from time to time. However, I have learned (probably thanks mostly to B12!) that it just won't cut it. I now make the most concerted effort NOT to ask whether an outfit makes me look a certain way. I figure, if it bothers him that much to look at me, it's HIS problem if he doesn't speak up. I respond to "What's wrong?" either by saying what is wrong or simply, "I don't feel like talking about it right now" AND LET IT GO. Finally, when people nonchalantly ask, "Hi, how are you?" Well, I tell them - regardless! None of this, "Fine." If I'm in a crappy mood, I say so. So there!

Codes? I didn't realise there were codes...And all this time I thought I was just an assclown....Damn you Cosmo!
I always went by: you only ask questions you want answers too, and you answer questions honestly....(It's always better to date adults after all)
Although I did learn early on to leave some comments out...Like if you were asked "Does this dress make me look fat?"...You could say "Yes" but it's better to say something like "It isn't the most flattering outfit you have"...but it is not advisable to say "Yes, but I wouldn't go blaming the dress." You could very well end up wearing whatever is in their hands at the moment....Oh yeah, and barn yard noises (no matter how funny you think they are) are right out...

hmmmm well being the only male in the household growing up I learned early on to inform pretty much every woman in my life that that shit dont fly and if you dont think you'll like the answer dont ask the question I figure if I'm straight about things with them then they can be straight about things with me.....so far so good
Everyday I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive
