Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.
@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.
@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??
@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"
@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.
@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.
@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.
@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.
@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?
@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.
@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.
@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.
@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin
@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.
@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.
@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!
@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself
@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?
@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!
@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

There's quite a lot of bullshit going on in AU's censors. Personally, I wouldn't think much about it, it's just the australian censors being stupid dickheads as usual.

Yep, that sums it up. The only worse ones are the German censors (people in SoF2 were replaced with cyborgs).

From wiki (although my original source is a German person):

QUOTE
To avoid being banned in Germany, the German version of the game had all in-game violence and gore removed and placed the story in a parallel universe which was populated by cyborgs. These changes were not accepted at all by the players' community, and the game was unsuccessful.

German censors are notorious. I guess with all the fascist history and neo-Nazis around they feel like they have to keep the lid on. Hell, my family is German by extraction, and all they care about is keeping the lid on.

Germans have also banned Nazis as bad guys in video games. This prompted OldManMurray to ask which was worse, being the first country to ban Nazis as video game villains, or the country to actually invent Naziism. They decided it was a tie.

OldmanMurray is awesome, I wonder why they left the site in total disrepair for so long though.

You know they got jobs? Currently both are working for Valve. The story and dialogue for Portal basically belong to Erik Wolpaw; he had a major hand in the aesthetic of TF2 as well. Chet Falsiek I think was involved in L4D, though he still runs Portal of Evil in his spare time, which is why Portal of Evil TV is always getting linked to Valve ads so quickly.

I don't know who they shoot. Maybe it didn't get a release. *shrugs*

No one most likely, they still confiscate copies of Wolfienstien3D IIR.
And (I think) displaying the swastika is a federal offense. Not surprising really. So any games or anything that feature nazi's are usually just snuck in/pirated there I believe.
