PLEASE LOGIN TO SEE ANYTHING.
This measure is inconvenient, yes, but necessary at present.
Click below for more information.
EVERYTHING IS MARKED UNREAD!!
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.
Automatic registration is disabled for security reasons.
But fear not!
You can register!
Option the First:
Please drop our fearless Administerrerrerr a line.
Tell him who you are, that you wish to join, and what you wish your username to be. The Administerrerrerr will get back to you. If you're human, and you're not a damn spammer, expect a reply within 24 hoursish. Usually quicker, rarely slower.
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.
Option the Second:
Find us on Facebook, in the magnificent
Umah Thurman Midget Circus
Join up there, or just drop the modmins a message. They will pass any request on to the Administerrerrerr for this place.
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.

Inasmuch as I kind've hate the world and most things in it right now, I wish all y'all a Merry Fucking Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Splendid Solstice, and a happy fucking New Year.

I'm struggling to maintain at least the appearance of holiday merriment so I'm not a grumpy dickhead for my kids. It's not easy this year.
Anyway. I hope y'all are happy, warm and well. Here's to 2017 sucking less than 2016, though current indications aren't very promising...

I hear ya, my job is 7 days a week, minimum 12 hours a day from Thanksgiving to Christmas. It really has a way of sucking any joy out of the whole ordeal. Plus this is everyone's first Christmas without my brother so it is mandatory that I have the happy face.
Just plow through it and don't be a jerk to the kids, maybe next year really will be better...

I've given precisely one (1) fuck about all of your merriment. Which as all I have to give. No penny, no hay penny, just uno fucko. So there you go.

Now that our children are scattered about the country, we celebrated xmas last weekend, so today feels a little anticlimactic. Not that we aren't enjoying the time to rest, but considering the way the past two months have gone we are just kind of having a weird time feeling a tremendous amount of joy. Then again I am not much of a Christmas guy, so this is a pretty normal sensation for me.

I attended a lovely Festivus party last evening, and the unadorned aluminum pole I crafted was a hit. I ate a bunch of tamales and drank some delicious craft beers, caught up with family and friends, it was a good time!

OK, I'll grant that a passle of home made tamales would have made anyone's holiday season infinitely better.

I miss tamales for Christmas. We've been rotating the menu for several years. This round was Greek /middle-eastern. So it was a lot of thing my kids had had before but none of the extended family knew what to make of it.
