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.

click her for the instant fix

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.

I was bored and I hadn't had a good excuse to re-install and play with GIMP for a while.
So I did.
You like?
Here is the high-res version (2.4 mb, so linky only):

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

Thanks that's cool. I like the format of the original, though, because it looks more like a demotivational poster.
Grr. fucking photobucket resizing shite....
I made a high res version if you want it, just can't upload it to photobucket.

they built the set with just a SLIDE RULE? GTFO!
"With the engine running in the neutral position, disengage the clutch (pull in-clutch lever), press down on the shift lever until low gear is engaged, remove foot from shift lever, increase engine speed slightly, slowly release clutch lever while advancing throttle. Repeat procedure for remaining gears."

I'll have to ask my mom if she wants one... She is a high school maths teacher. When she saw this after I posted it on my FB she got all emo because today will be the first day of school and they won't have text books until later this week, at earliest. Not a very confidence inspiring way to start the school year
She is the union rep for the building, along with the math department chair and has spent a lot of time and effort trying to get the district to work on a comprehensive math literacy program in their feeder schools, to great frustration. And now they're not going to the moon.

I so empathize with her. I started off this year with no books and I'm also the union rep for the building.UndertheGun wrote:Lol

Your mom speaks another language, though, as I teach the English gooder and she speaks Numbersese.
Tell her to hang in there and keep fighting the good fight.

Matpoc! It came today and it is wonderful! I will take it, well, somewhere and have it mounted (hopefully this weekend). Oh, the, ahem, packing material was really cool too. My boys thank you.
