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!

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.

So you're in 2013 while I'm in 2012?
How fitting that I'm watching the Doctor Who Christma special as I type this.
So, a happy new year, from what's left of the old year, to you!
Now, to everyone else who also has a few hours left in the old year, I'd give the traditional wishes in German, but wishing someone a "good slide" in a motorcycle forum wouldn't be in good taste, I think, so I wont.
But enjoy the rest of the old one and have a good new one everyone! This place is, indeed, the tops!
If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

Right now, right outside my fucking window, all the town's Beirut Tribute Bands are lining up to play a medley of Shock and Awe, and they only know half the chords. I've got my headphones on, and still I can't hear half the dialogue of the video I'm watching, what with the Battle of Britain re-enactors getting warmed up before midnight.
Oh, and there's loud fireworks, too!
...
I fucking hate new-year's, and either I or it is getting worse every year.
I've had the same box of firecrackers, still sealed in the original wrapping, stowed away for the past six years, that was the last time I enjoyed all this crap.

2013 hang over looks exactly the same as 2012's. I'm just glad I now know I can still stay up and awake until 6 in the morning.
Have a good one until 2014.
I'm not really from around here.

There has been a light drizzle of rain going on since last night.
At 3PM, this is what I saw outside. My bedroom window is the middle one on the 2nd floor (or is it the first for you? The one that isn't an Auto parts store.).
Image
That mud that you see? That wasn't there yesterday. And that isn't regular mud from around here. It's the remnants of the sand they use to stretch the blackpowder or whatever it is they use these day in firecrackers.
This was what the rain hadn't washed away in the preceeding twelve hours or so, and that isn't just a superficial stain, that clump of mud is about half an inch thick in places.
Yes, there were fireworks yesterday...especially around 2 AM, when some idiots decided that, as the rest of the city finally went quiet, it was now quiet enough to properly appreciate the noise of their own firecrackers.
