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.

Michigan Ootmiks?
Just relocated back to MI from VA. (Where'd the riding season go???) Being around Grand Rapids, I suspect a cell is nearby, but my radar is fuzzy. Or not present at all. So, uh, howdy.

Nate is up in Kingsely, near Traverse City. Google says it's less than two hours, so that's near by your 'merican metrics, no?
If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

I gave up the street this past spring but if you have a bike that needs to be thrown around in the woods, I'm about 3 miles from the nearest trail.

You need an URL that starts with "maps.google.com". Like so:guitargeek wrote:That didn't work AT ALL. DerG, how do we embed a map?
Code: Select all
[media]https://maps.google.com/?ll=39.674427,-104.750519&spn=1.042198,2.062683&t=m&z=10[/media]Let me fiddle ...
[media]https://maps.google.com/ms?msa=0&msid=2 ... tput=embed[/media]
Is that right?
I just replaced "www.google.com/maps" with "maps.google.com". The media tags cannot recognize the former, but will work with the latter.

Yeah, no street for now but thats O.K. because I had more fun in the woods this past summer than I have had in the last three years on the street.

Re: Michigan Ootmiks?
Hm. Looking at the code you originally posted, it appears that google wants to lay two maps on top of another. At least there are two sets of code in there that lead to a map. Identical strings, apparently, but I think that may be how they do it.
Unfortunately, the media tags aren't built for fanciness of that nature. They handle one URL, not a flamboyant combination of them.
And the one URL google provides when you hit that link button, it will not deliver any ootmicks.
'fraid for now, a plain link is what we must settle for.
I might go looking into embedding full google maps next week or so, I'll have some time on my hands.

Re: Michigan Ootmiks?
Nope. I've just played around a bit, it will not work.
I could get a link to display in a frame in a post, as though embedded ... but google don't allow no frames.
How to get the iframe to work I know not, and I'm not entirely sure I want to. There are nebulous warnings that it's dangerous going around.
