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.

You can register!

Option the First:
Please drop our fearless Administerrerrerr a line.

Unfortunately, the Contact Form is being a total primadonna right now, so please send an email to the obvious address.
Posting this address in clear text is just the "on" switch for spambots, but here is a hint.

Join up there, or just drop the modmins a message. They will pass any request on to the Administerrerrerr for this place.

Ok. HUGE problem

A forum for the off topic stuff. Everything from religion to philosophy to sex to humor (see why it used to be called Buggery?). All manner of rude psychological abuse is welcome and encouraged.

Dan can back me up on this, and you newcomers watch and see over the years. Every winter without fail at least one thread just blows up. Accusations, recriminations, insult, injury, the whole Magilla. Here it is. I remember a few years ago another person needed help. Got it too. However that situation went down faster than Heidi Fleiss at an NFL mixer. Over the years I've been left to surmise that the root cause is that people aren't riding as much and the whole cabin fever thing don't go down well with bikers. I think essentially most of us aren't really nice when we're not riding regularly. I know I'm not. I don't mean to in any way take away from the gravity of the developing situation here but I just thought I'd provide a little historical backround for these "train wreck" threads. I can almost guarantee the return of a certain "civility" by late spring. So those of you involved in the struggle....party on. You spectators, enjoy the pretty fireworks!!! See ya'll in May.

Freek,
And noow that the first day of winter has nearly passed I (We) have come one step closer to the dawn of yet another season of civility (Spring, or late Spring on CO). Until then I will diligently abide those few precious days when the sand and MaCl are at a minimum and drag pegs around the cloverleafs entering and exiting 6th ave in Lakewood in an attempt to fool myself into thinking that wherever I go, there will be the greatest gift of all....Traction.

Was Slashes attack on Vances avatars last winter? Maybe that was Spring Finals. Perhaps Schim didn't achieve the scores he was looking for, The timing was right for finals aggression, thus the subsequent bridge burning?
So this is where I'm supposed to put a witty or profound statement. I'll work on that
