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!

Anyone remember Teddy Ruxpin?

One of DIC's best cartoons besides our beloved SatAM, Real Ghostbusters, Heathcliff and Inspector Gadget or COPS! This is quite an imaginative and well animated show from every SatAM fans's favorite cartoon company and had a nice mythology to it. It ran from late 1986 to 1988 as it came out weekday mornings and i remembered when i was 5 in 1986 getting up to watch the show all the time, i even had the animatronic doll back then.

I remember watching the show as a kid, though I can't remember half of it. I know one of the characters had a weird voice, and I found out that if I talked with my lips under water I could sound just like him. Like "bblrubbb! Ibbb cubbin tuh gebb youbb! Blluuubbbbb!"

Good times.

"Ha ha ha! He said his name is Teddy Dustpan!"

Unfortunately I think Teddy falls firmly in the "kids' cartoon" category, unlike SatAM, which has much more of a capacity of being appreciated by older people.

Vagley, I barley remember the cartoon but I remember the toy.

The nostalga critic did a review on him for Halloween last year that is here.

I vaguely remember it. He was no Bereinstein Bears. And it really sounds like a bad name for a kids cereal. Teddys Ruxpins.

Ah, thank goodness it wasn't just me!

When I was about 3 or 4, my older brother bought me a talking teddy doll. Not sure if it was Ruxpin, but he saved up for ages for it apparently. Then he bought it for my birthday... and I was terrified of it. It completely freaked me out. I didn't see it again after that and he said he'd thrown it away. But it turned out a few years later he told me he'd taken it back to the shop and bought me a bike instead with the refund money.

Poor old Simon; he only meant to give me a brilliant present. I actually feel a bit guilty about it now.

Don't remember the cartoon...but for the record, it was interesting when I saw one kid use his Teddy Ruxpin doll to play a Metallica tape.

By the way, I started watching just a little bit of the episode that KorbenDallas posted (which was one of the ones I had on tape; my earlier "Teddy Dustpan" quote comes from it). I don't know why, but the voices give me a really weird nostalgia trip. Guess it's just 'cause I hadn't heard 'em in ages, but they're still very familiar for some reason.

You gotta admit it was awesome when Prince Arin became a monster.

And does anyone remember the live-action pilot movie? it was done in puppets, animatronics and suits.

To quote Penny Arcade: (I think)

"Do you remember Teddy Ruxpin, that talking bear toy that had the cartoon?"

"No. Unlike you, I was raised like a boy."
