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.

Happy Thanksgiving

Post by Bigshankhank » Thu Nov 26, 2015 4:30 pm

Seriously, I cannot adequately express the gratitude I feel toward the universe today. You can take Christmas, birthdays, Arbor day and all that jazz and stuff them, my day is Thanksgiving Day. I love my family, I am happy to be where I am geographically-speaking, I don't seek perfection so much as peace, and that I have today. I knows other have less and I don't mean to sound as though I am bragging, I am simply happy. To any who have a need, I open my door to all of you as I will my family, welcome you and wish you well.

You too Hank!

I'm thankful for motorbikes, good tools, cheap beer, and most of all the ootmiks at large. The Falsebook ones, us hanging chads around here, and especially the ones you can only catch out on the road. Happy Thanksgiving to all of us!

Happy Turkey Day, guys.

it's my favorite holiday. Good friends, food, and no commercialized expectations. Hell, I even enjoy the fact that football is on the tube, if only to shed some of the chaffe. Happy Thanksgiving everyone, even if it's a bit belated.

Shit I forgot I started this thread years ago, disregard my new one.

Happy and thankful to have a new home, flaws and all. My wife and kids are a constant source of joy, love and aggravation and I wouldn't have it any other way. I still have a reasonably cool motorcycle, plus more projects than I can handle so I am good. The world is a fucking wreck, but there is still sunshine in some places. Go outside and look for it.

Once more with feeling,

HAPPY FUCKING THANKSGIVING

Be with the people who mean the most to you, blood or chosen or otherwise.

In my own world, I've managed to hang on to my family by the skin of my teeth, and despite the election results in my state I am proud of both my personal votes and happy for the way the nation overall voted. Picked a new weird off-road vehicle which makes my long drive to work both uncomfortable and fun just like a good post-apoc car should, still got the Duke as well as a Ninjette for the wife to join me on rides, and my folks rounded the 50 year mark together which made for a heckuva celebration in itself.

Another year, some good some bad. Again its a time to be with the people that you love, not necessarily agree with. Find your common ground, share the joy of being alive and remembering those who couldn't make it to this day. Found family, Friendsgiving, blood relatives, singularity, all is valid and joyful.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Fuckin' A, man. It was good to actually get together with family -- even some of the ones who piss me off. :mrgreen:

I just hope we can do it again next year and not be back in fucking lockdown.
