Red said he couldnt get one
@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 11:25 AM)

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?

Here's why not to buy anything from overstock.com, as presented verbatim by me and one of their customer disservice reps.

Johnson: Hi, my name is Johnson. How may I help you?
Visitor: I want to write a review of a chair I purchased from you a year ago but it says I'd already written a review.
Visitor: However, none of the 25 reviews for this chair are mine.
Johnson: Let me check on that and I'll help you further.
Johnson: Did you try writing the review on this item before?
Visitor: I don't remember.
Johnson: If you had submitted a review on this item before, you'll not be able to write it. However not all the reviews will be posted on our site.
Johnson: Only a limited number of reviews will be posted.
Johnson: As I have not heard from you for a while, I’ll remain available for another minute for further help.
Visitor: So I have no way of knowing if I'd already written a review, no way of knowing what was wrong with the one I'd written if I had, and no way of revising it and trying again?
Visitor: Your company is doing an excellent job of ensuring I will not be a repeat customer
Johnson: I'm really sorry.
Visitor: Goodbye.

Oh yeah, the reason I wanted to write the review is my chair (which I already hated) just broke, after not having had it for even a year. Considering I'm in the middle of moving a big website, namely FUS, to a new host, I must say the timing couldn't have been much worse.

So some reviews are left off the website? That's a bit...suspicious.

Poor Mr. Achmed Mcwhitename  Johnson sounds like he's stuck working a rather seedy place, given the content of this one diologue.

 

And this is just one thing. The lack of editing  for the reviews is pretty damning as well (editing/updating is very important if an issue is resolved or come up afterwards). The selectiveness is enough for me to stay the heck away.

Blegh. I really wanted to get the site switched to the new host tonight, but I can't do it without a proper chair to sit in. Sitting in this broken thing (or any of the other chairs in the house, which aren't office chairs) makes my back ache and I really don't want to be distracted while working on this or else I could make a mistake. Guess it'll have to wait another night.

Which is why i drink the good stuff


Some say that he knows 2 facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong. And that 61 years ago he accidentally introduced Her Majesty The Queen to a Greek racialist. All we know is, I'm going to the tower now to have my head cut off, and he is called The Stig.

I don't drink soda or booze. I haven't had a pop since I was 14. It did wonders for my health (it's a nightmare on your kidneys and actually dehydrates you).

 

Hate the stuff, it's saccharine syrup-water that burns when goes down...and then when it goes out. I will stick with my cup of Twinning's Earl Grey.
