ACCESS PROBLEMS?  Posted on 04/26/08 06:49 PM by Sheallaidh
If you are trying to log into the boards and have forgotten your password, login, e-mail address - whatever, and you can't get the info via the auto-reset feature...

...add me to MSN - viniholden@hotmail.com or drop me an e-mail to the same address and I will reset it for you.

Collaborative Writing  Posted on 09/19/06 12:56 AM by Sheallaidh
Guys,

I know we've dabbled with roleplay before, and various other things which sort of petered out after a while.

One thing I know a lot of people here either enjoy, or fancy themselves good at, is writing.

Is anyone interested in doing some co-authoring?

It can be one person, or a number of people, depending on the level of interest will determine how I progress this idea.

The first thing I need to know is who is interested, and what sort of writing they enjoy.

After that we can have a meeting and sort out what type of book to write, and how to go about it.

I have various ideas, but it very much depends on the level of interest.

Post in this thread with your questions/comments.

Hostrocket Email Issue  Posted on 08/09/05 01:59 PM by Sheallaidh
Valued HostRocket Customer:

HostRocket truly appreciates the opportunity to host your web site. As you know, we have an amazing track record when it comes to reliability. Our uptime records for all systems have been outstanding since 1999.

Even so, there is nothing that we or any other provider can do to make everything 100% flawless and failure-free. We can simply try to minimize the chances of systems failing and have appropriate failover systems in place. Since there is always a small possibility of failure, providers always encourage users to create their own backups as well. Last week, we had a failure that resulted in some e-mail data loss for some customers. We are writing to inform you of this and outline the situation.

On Friday, we experienced a hardware failure on "mailbox2? which is the mailserver that facilitates e-mail delivery for your account. HostRocket had multiple backups in place. When this failure occurred, our technicians p...

20 years and still being played.  Posted on 05/28/04 08:49 AM by Charagrin

Attachment ChaosFunk.zip (2535 hits)My mother entered into 'the hovel', as she was fond of calling it demanding something about something or other. I wasn't really listening as my bedroom was filled with Midge Ure's vocals as he went in search of 'Loves Great Adventure'. I nodded at what I thought was the correct moment to do so, with one eye on her and the other on my black and white Binatone.

"Hmmm", I said "Ok. Understood. Right o. I'll sort it".

Eventually these randomly generated words seemed to do the trick and she left. Free once again to continue with another four or five hours wearing down the rubber keyboard of my 48K ZX Spectrum, I set out on my endless journey of anticipation to find out what the next screen looked like on yet another platform game.

It's funny how your mind associates one thing with another and never lets go. Whenever I hear a song by Ultravox I am immediately transported back in time to the early half of the 1980's. It was a time when I spent a...

Some more IR news.  Posted on 11/17/03 12:28 AM by SuperRecoome
How Ironic that shortly after we go through classic thread madness with IrishRose I find out that she is at it again. That's right folks, her new boyfriend, goes by the name of MECHFaust, and he's 23 years old.

While it's true that at least he can be considered legal, it is still off putting that she has reared children who are older than he is. The fact that her last boyfriend was 17 makes her an honest to god rapist as it is, but now we find out that she is still doing it.

No man should be desperate enough to date someone that much older than him. Granted, he could be dating her for the cash, (I mean, she COULD be rich, though I don't see how because she plays Realm all day) yet for some reason, I fail to see that as an option. At least find an unattractive nasty chick your own age. Or even look at her history of dating. Even if she WAS his age, I can't see a normal person agreeing to date her based on her past history alone! When will people learn?

Here is the thread.

NOTICE: BOARDS CLOSING  Posted on 08/14/03 08:29 PM by Sheallaidh
The boards will be closed at 6pm EDT on Friday 15th August 2003 and will remain closed until the transfer to the new host is complete.

This is being done to facilitate the safe transfer of the database without any corruption issues. While I will endeavour to get this done as swiftly as possible, there is a possibility that the boards may be down all weekend.

Please note: IRC will remain open throughout.

We're moving host!  Posted on 08/08/03 07:24 AM by Sheallaidh
Ok, it's official now. We are moving host.

Whether we want to or not, in fact. HostGo have asked me to find another host, as their server cannot handle our boards. We will be moving servers in the next week or so, I will try and make this change as seamless as possible, however I would strongly recommend that you backup your e-mail and any files you have on your webspace. I may not be able to re-integrate the emails, although I should be able to transfer the web pages ok. We'll see how the setup goes and I will keep you posted.
