Re: My (somewhat) triumphant return

Thanks guys, while it turned out that I wasn't in fact struck down by cancer or heart failure, I had a good few weeks where it certainly seemed that way. The headaches were the worst bit, they were absolutely unbearable. I had weeks and weeks of constant nausea, loss of vision (I'm pretty good at us...

My (somewhat) triumphant return

Hello everyone, I am pleased to announce that after many months of crippling stress and health issues (brain cancer and heart attack scares are no fun, luckily both came back clear), I have returned. (Though it would be nice if my hair would stop falling out, I'm too bloody young to be bald!) I'd li...

Planned board update

Hi All, Due to some issues we've been seeing behind the scenes, we've decided that it's about time we updated the board software again. It's needed doing for a while now, but we've been hesitant due to the amount of things that rely upon this forum operating correctly. Things such as story posting. ...

Re: Randomness

Re: Member pics

The UK got slammed pretty hard though; my folks said that Liverpool was blanketed with inches upon inches of snow which is unprecedented for us... Oh god yeah, I remember that. Everything stopped.

Re: What's new since ...

I use a different theme from the rest of our users here, but I can see a link on the forum home page that says "Mark all forums read" which does just as it says. I'll have a look a bit later to see if it is on the standard theme as well, and if it isn't I'll see about getting it added. As ...

Re: Spam Threads

PS ~ Did you know dark_rain just toils endlessly behind the scenes and never makes any fanfare about it and has PERSONALLY written a pile of the code that allows us to have some really nice features on this bboard?

Re: Oddities

I'd be careful regarding that newspaper. In the UK it is well known for printing lies, damned lies and lots of topless girls on page 3. Hardly sterling material.
