I'll go with the obvious. "Compounds" make news, estates are for noodlers.
I hate traditional media.

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.

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.

Estates are where rich people live. Compounds are where rich people hide.
I'm guessing the Kennedy compound was just an estate at one time. I'm guessing either Chappaquiddick or the William Kennedy Smith rape scandal elevated it to a compound.

Yippie, I'm living in a compound! I'm famous like Jicheal Mackson!!!
No really. Here we just call it a "complex". It's a small village consisting of little semi-detached bungalows, garages and some free-standing houses, which are all in fact just "units". Put electric fencing around it and 2 electric gates back and front ... and voila. And it's not fancy at all but a typical way of living for lower middle-class jerks like us. Actually it's a very communal way of living, since we all share the ownership of the communal grounds, lawns and parking lots, workshop and meeting hall inside the complex and only the inside of the units belong to the owners as such. Even our garden is communal ground, Mrs Badi and me only have the exclusive right to use it. There are much more posh complexes around, with bbq areas, swimming pools and washing facilities, which we don't have in our little village.
I'd prefer to live in or on an estate though.

If at first you don't succeed,
