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.

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.

Find us on Facebook, in the magnificent

We, the board, we get spam

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.

We, the board, we get spam

Post by DerGolgo » Mon Apr 06, 2020 10:44 am

As some of you may have noticed, we now have a contact form that lets you shoot missives straight at your glorious Administerrerrerr.

As with anything, this gets used by spammers. To, well, spam.

Mostly for "best leads", "business opportunities", all manner of nonsense.

Just now, though. I thought I'd share.
Hey my name is Amy, I am from Leggings Hut.

Thought I'd let you know that we ship our fitness apparel worldwide
directly from New York City.

Fitness leggings and athletic wear for women made with quality soft
material.

You will never overpay when shopping with us.

Discover our collection today

Thanks and have a great day!
They certainly use some manner of bot to use every contact form it can find.
Still. I can't help but trying to imagine what about this place would suggest an opportunity to sell Fitness leggings and athletic wear for women made with quality soft material.


If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

I said I have a big stick.

Don't be fooled, I do like my women made with quality soft material.
I'm not really from around here.

Milestone! First spam in potato-speak!

To paraphrase:
High quality wares from the manufacturer. Factory outlet. Same day shipping. Up to 95% cheaper than on the market.

Trashbags, sandbags, rustling bags (as in making a rustling noise, not for rustling cattle), shavings-bags (as in metal shavings or wood shavings), bubble-wrap lined envelopes, large envelopes, all manner of foils, all manner of tapes.
