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.

GOD to creationists: STFU! :()

Post by DerGolgo » Thu Aug 22, 2013 11:52 am

Oh, this is one of my favorites. I've said it often, but not often enough, for there is no enough of this. If this was in a book or TV show, you'd chuckle but go "Yeah, but that'd never happen, would it."
Except when it does!
Of, reality, from your pen still flows the greatest hilarity.
Because...
David Ferguson rawstory.com wrote:Creationism museum employee injured by lightning strike while on the job
An employee of Petersburg, Kentucky’s Creation Museum was struck by lightning Wednesday while clearing guests from a zip line attraction at the museum during a thunderstorm.
Okay, according to the article, that zip line was nearly 5 football fields worth, and about 15 stories up in the air, so lightning heading for it in a thunderstorm isn't exactly unlikely, is it. But the sheer symbolism! Where this guy worked, for whom, and then this .... :lol: :lol: :lol:
Now, before you read on, don't get upset. He's basically fine:
David Ferguson rawstory.com wrote:He was taken to a nearby hospital, but his injuries were said to be superficial.
So, he'll have a heck of a story to tell any priests visiting his bedside. And it wasn't just regular old lightning, no!
David Ferguson rawstory.com wrote:Museum officials reported that the worker touched a piece of equipment that had been charged by a lighting strike and the current slammed into his body, injuring him.
I had not known this was possible. But it does make sense, lightning is a big old capacitor discharging, isn't it, and if it doesn't get to the ground, there'd be a potential difference someplace still, wouldn't there.
But how cool is that! Hidden lightning! He wasn't just struck down by god's wrath, no - he was knocked over by an electric landmine that was just there, waiting for him, biding it's time, and when he wasn't suspecting anything ... silent but deadly ... lightning! :lol: :lol:


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

A zip line at a Creationism museum? That's weird enough as it is.

That's not weird, what's weird is that it zips uphill...

It better be going uphill. And downhill. And sideways. With 1.21 Gigawatt, it should even go...
