Questions/Issues/Wishlists for BFP

[Admin]

Well, aren't y'all a chatty bunch!

First off, a HUGE 'Thanks' to everyone who has shown up to give some love to our little endeavor. Things might be a little wonky in a few spots but we will drink as much coffee as it takes to get this place in good shape.

I received a PM asking about a certain function and realized that we probably need a thread for issues and such. So here it is!
We will do our best to answer questions in a timely manner and make some magic


List
1. Financials Page - (this might be ugly for a bit but as long as its accurate, right?)
2. Youtube embedding
3. Banners for Subscription Users


Again, thanks for all of your patience, your love, and mostly your belief in the vision.

This home is for ALL of us.

Oh that's for me isn't it? You are sooo mean. :p :)

[Admin]

"Pulling an Irish" indeed! Naughty, Naughty!


For any of you wanting to post a Youtube, I've just installed a mod that allows us to just put in the URL and thats it.
No embedding required.

So just go to Youtube, select your video and put in the URL like normal:

www.you tube.com/blablahblah

and your video will automatically appear.

Please and thank you.

I keep seeing Junior Member and now I desire a merit badge. When do I get to be Assistant Scoutmaster?

Oh, and can the badge have a Hello Kitty on it, too, please? :)

Pulling an Irish!! hahaha

You would have to run around with your panties on backwards, smoking a cigerette, and say fuck alot. :p

[Arwen]

Panties on backwards/
Smoking?
Fuck a lot?

Sounds like a certain Arkansas girl to me.

[Linus]

*pokes the Admin*

Yo, boss person! More smilies please! (just so I can show happiness 6,000 ways) :D

And we need a special super geek smilie too ;)

[Linus]

*waves hand* Oh, oh.. I have an issue: please move from your present provider (GoDaddy) to a provider who actually has a clue on how to handle load. I actually got a SQL Error this morning and "slowness" (this is a horrible relative term but a site this new and this small shouldn't be experiencing either issue).

[Admin]

Oh Linus, if you only knew!

They actually suggested last night at 3am when I was the ONLY person on the site and got a "dropped connection" that we needed to upgrade to a DEDICATED SERVER to "handle the number of queries".
:eek::eek::eek:

So yes, I hear you. Loud and clear!


As far as the list:

List
1.Financials Page - (this might be ugly for a bit but as long as its accurate, right?) ** DONE
2. Youtube embedding **DONE
3. Banners for Subscription Users **IN PROGRESS
4. More smilies :)

Oh, I do. :) I have a friend who hosted their blog (a blog no less with far less complexity than a forum) on GoDaddy and it sucked even for that! Anyways, if you need help or ideas, just ping me. :)

ETA: I forgot.. who are the mods? (so I know who not to really piss off) do they have special moddy kind of badges or other identifying thingies/widgets/whatzzits (you know those technical terms)?

[Arwen]

Question:

How come it is....that I can't friend some folks while others I can? Is it a setting at their end? The only similarity I see is that they have not posted yet. Could this be the clue-by-4 that I need?


Hmm.

This one is interesting. You should be able to friend any user here. Can you give me an example of a username you can't friend?

[Jet]

is there a way to delete a picture in the gallery?


Hi Jet!

(I just realized that I hadn't answered your pm yesterda, forgive my flakery there!)

I just flipped the switch and you should be able to delete your photo now. Just let me know if you check it and there is anything not working!

[ToppDyke]

Options to delete your photo in the gallery just incase you posted one with a really big file size by mistake. Thanks.:)

I am definitely going to be hitting you up rather shortly to bounce some ideas around and get your input on some different options!

As far as mods, we will be making a formal announcement some time in the next few days, but informally:

We have 3 mods.

Dreadgeek, aka AJ, is our head moderator. June is also a moderator. We have a 3rd moderator as well, I just need to verify with that person that they want to moderate under their member name.

Chat is moderated by Scorp.

And I think you will see that we really *do* have some amazing moderators :)

[Novelafemme]

Do we get bare bottom spankies for being naughty here?????

Dear Admin,

Can basic memberers leave visitor notes? If not, I would like to humbly request that we be allowed to, for the sake of civility.
I like to say thank you when my friends (who are virile, not basic, members) leave me pictures of dead dolls and such.

It does lack some of the glitter I'm accustomed to, but I'm just glad someone was wise enough to realize the site would be naked without a unicorn


(thank you, nice seeing you also),
Dylan...likes seeing familiar faces too

Fuck. Who's turn was it to pull up the drawbridge?

[Bit]

Fuck. Who's turn was it to pull up the drawbridge?

*smacks forehead* I'm sorry... when I saw the unicorn go galloping out, I was all concerned about catching it and then yanno, I was so busy being grateful when Dylan brought it back that I didn't even THINK... sheesh.

*hangs head*

*resigns commission*

[WolfyOne]

I thought long and hard on what to put in a wishlist. There would be only one thing on mine. If I could have only one game, let it be Mahjong Connect.

My issues with GoDaddy are of a different flavor. This (http://www.nonaverage.net/insomanywords/?p=71), for example. Or this (http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Go_Daddy's_advertising), or this (http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/02/02/godaddy-shows-others-what-not-to-do-with-super-bowl-ads/).

Greetings Gorgeous Pixiewoman,

When you click on a person's profile are you not seeing a box pop up to leave a visitor message?

I don't get the option, either. I figured it was my membership level.

dagnabbit...it seems I lost my way to the galleries. According to the newbie FAQ, user CP should have a link to albums and pics. Mine doesn't. I found my way to the galleries once. Can ya help?

[Medusa]

Hey Mel!

On the homepage there is a pink box on the left side of the page right under the "Welcome Welcome Welcome" message that says "Site Navigation". There's a link there :)
We need to change the nav bar - on the list it goes!

Thanks for the help 'Dusa! The problem was that my bookmark for the site linked me directly to the forums...I didn't see the homepage. When I deleted "/forum" from the address, it brought me to the homepage. It's actually a cool homepage, so now I have re-bookmarked. I am a doofus!

Perhaps a link to the galleries (or photos) on the "quick link" pulldown menu would be good. Certainly not a big deal tho

Thanks again!

I won't create any of those threads if you rep me :eek:

[Bit]

May I add my wish for better smilies? I don't think we need bazillions of them, but I REALLY miss the lil guy with the eyebrows in his hairline, the flower, and the heart.

A cheesy grin that isn't green-faced would be nice too, lol...:rolleyes:

I suspect that different smilies will mean more money; is that how it works?

Hey Bit!

That's actually one of our list items this week - we hope to add a lot more (cuter) smilies for those who like to emote and emote and emote. But no, it wont cost any more to add them :)
(but even if it did, we are looking good on the community bank right now!)

[MrSunshine]

Oh and how about a sly face smilie. I could see using that one a lot.<-----insert there.

[Vlasta]

did anybody check out the chat ? ...... too cool ^5 !

thanks Medusa and Jack :)

[Bit]

Oh, too cool! Not that I require smilies, I mean I can type anything I like in between asterisks, but sometimes, well... it's just fun to put in the faces.

I kinda like this lil one :eek: he looks like a horrified frog, lol... :cool:

......yeah. They're just fun. *beams*

Okay, I have a silly question....why on earth are people asking to be my friend on here? I keep getting notifications that people want to be my friends. Some people I don't even know....don't want to piss anyone off by not adding them....sooooo, what is the point of these friends? Do they have access to something that the others don't?

I have always wondered and never asked.

Some people are very friendly. You may not know them now but soon will know them (I have weird visions of the Borg now). Anyways, you don't have to accept it if you don't want to. It just adds people to your contact list. :)

Now fighting the urge to start that thread named EXACTLY as the Island of Wiki Wiki Nu Nu Dreams yada yada.

Sorry, darlin', but that thread had some of the deepest, most meaningful conversations on BF for a long time. Easy to miss if you only saw the nighttime silliness.

But the ability to laugh and dream and role-play was a hoot and a holler. I'd be there again in a minute if I thought we could get back to what it once was. :D

One way you can do that would be to scroll to the top of the page and hit the big logo (the BFP globe). Once you get back to the homepage, on the left side is "forums."
That will take you there:)

The best part? I'm not even sure to what thread you (or I) refer (e says it was StudBoi's Island of Dreams?), though I do remember seeing a plethora of silly signature lines.

I see some smart ass couldn't resist the urge (Linus :eek:) I want royalties - that title is my intellectual property!

Jack & Medusa....
Once more, I want to say a big "THANK YOU" for this site......You are appreciated so very much!!

There is a grateful throng!! (No I didn't say "thong".... )


~Diva (8)

[GinaSofia]

I absolutely agree with THE Diva...We are all very grateful
to you both for giving us this great space of fresh air.
Speaking of thongs, are there any plans for BFP merchandise
in the near future?

Oh you bet! ;)

We are working up some designs for t-shirts, hats, and "other" stuff and will put up a link to a store as soon as we have it finished :)

[GinaSofia]

Right On! Please try to include tank tops for us chicks
w/ big boobies :)

[blackboot]

I also want to thank Medusa and Jack for this lovely new home. I'll try not to lift my leg on any of the nice furniture. My question is, do we have to have the "Recent Visitors" section on our profile page? I like being all nosey and stuff, but now Juney will get the wrong idea when she sees how many times I look for poodles in her profile.

[Words]

I heard there were cookies over here.


But I Don't Feel Snarky,
Dylan...is glad you're here, because your snark is some of the best around and makes me go, "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Ouch! Baby, come and read what Words just said!" It's Euro-Snark

Ha!

I like that. Euro-Snark.

[Dean Thoreau]

Wow,,just wanted to say you all are doing a great job ..i just popped inot the chat room, its loading a lot faster, now you can pm without knowing mirc, and it is looking very good.
keep it up , I must admit it was nice last night, good number of folk and no one getting their panties in a bundle cause someone did not genuflect when a Godabee came in.

Oh and its nice to see that this is a community thang, then we wont have to worry about all that worship stuff....


love,
dean

ps: can we start a bookworms thread? cause I need to talk to some other bookworms....i just read some fo the coolest books and lissa randomnumbers is nowhere to be found!!!!!

[MrSunshine]

Before a bookworm thread can be started Dean you have to learn to spell "of". ;)

[Tommi]

Hah! Maybe I am checking yours for Poodles too! You know how I roll. I kind of like being able to see who is stalking visiting my page! I don't mind at all if people go look. I look at all the new folks signing up to see if I know them.

I've missed you and your Poodles. Hope all is well!

Mahalo,
June

Looking at said fire hydrant..just sayin.

Hi Bebe,

I'm an idiot and documented it under Mo* since Im still operating in the "Mountaingirl" mode :)
(I think its the Nyquil, I accused Jack of pulling a gun on the Christmas tree earlier today)


Right now, everyone's subscription has been documented as the first 2 letters because I havent put the option in for people to say whether or not they want their membership to show.

But your snazzy options should be working, lemme know if anything isnt working sweetface!

Will get that fixed :)

I bet I can personally accommodate boobies of all sizes :D
(and yes, this IS Medusa speaking...perhaps in a pervy voice?)


Im checking in to a couple of different places so that we can get quality t-shirts in larger sizes and some smaller sizes as well. There seems to be a severe lack of merchandize options for places with good quality t-shirts in ALL sizes. (not everyone is a medium ffs!)

I wish for an arcade.
*closing my eyes real tight*

[Jess]

It's addictive, I hate it and we should have it!

We wondered if members really liked the arcade features.
Feed back is good.
Any special games?



Of course, I would build a small shrine to You and Medusa (next to the other one) if You would have Mahjong Connect....I hate it. But I love it.

Yeah....one of those things.:D

Well, I can't speak for others (obviously) but I do like playing games in between posting/reading, etc... I like word and card games - but as far as special ... no. (I mean, I could just open another tab and play off of a game site or something, but it's just nice to have it on one site.)

[NJFemmie]

Yeah .... definitely Mahjong connect! The hours I have spent cursing at that game is priceless.

[Just_G]

oh oh oh oh...please get that Mahjong Alchemy....I am addicted....I neeeeeeeeed it! I misssss it....pleeeeease get it! Please.

[NJFemmie]

Games and Smileys are coming.

YES, oh please, yes. But can the people we quote stay in their fonts/colors at the same time, or at least go to a default black, so that it isn't confusing?

And yanno, I'm sorry to say this but the gray screens are getting to me... is there any way to go to white? I don't mind the light gray on the pages, but this medium gray in the posting window makes my old eyes crazy... (using WYSIWYG, btw).

Thank you all so much!

Edited to change my mind... forgot the medium gray is in the quoted posts.... oy... old eyes really like white.... *sheepish smile*

Please and Thank you.:bowdown:
p.s. especially some shooting games.:quickdraw:

Dear Admin,

Do you remember a certain time when a certain someone was wrecking havoc and being diligent virgos some preliminary research was done to understand the nature and behaviour of internet trolls/forum trolls/ the concept of trolling in general?

Might I kindly suggest that this be something that is included in your operating procedure and guidelines on how to handle trolls... at a) an administrative level b) as a moderator level and c) as a community/membership level.

Thanks :canadian:

[Lady Jewel]

Have to agree with you cath. The grey backround makes it almost impossible to see what I am typing. Pleaseeeeee Jack n Medusa, can you change it to white?? Pretty please with sugar on top??

Jewel




Thank you all!!

___

Well, then I'll get one too!

I WISH I had this much wood split right now. I am SO far behind. This is not YOUR STACK is it Jack?! I know you cut some trees down. Are you two burning wood for the winter? It's a lot of work, but SO WORTH it!! Very cozy!!

:hrmph: Must do wood tomorrow!


WILDCAT

[WILDCAT]

Ive got at least this much wood, we lOVE our fireplace.
But no its not my stack, I spend hours surfing the internet looking at other peoples wood stacks.

Oh yeah :woodchop:

We have been having fires for the last month, its getting cold here.

I guess we need a wood, ax, stack'em thread.

__

Yeah, we do. I really needed the support this year! I should be burning now too. Chimney has been cleaned, but not the stove pipe yet!

I used to hand split. I do have a splitter now though, but you need two thumbs (the safety feature) and then the wood turner person - for speed and better efficiency, and less bending, etc... I loved that darn splitter you posted a photo of awhile back. (The Bobcat looking one!) I laughed, but watched the whole video, with ENVY!

I have to finish up this tri-axle load before the wood gets punky on me. It has been so damned wet here the past couple of years.

OK, end of DERAIL!

REALLY!

Ummmm, technical question. If we are answering a PM and we see all of their editor tags upon replying, (which is a tad confusing for me reading my way through that to respond), how do we clear that? I recall Linus mentioning something about "removing editor tags" when discovering WHY my music links didn't intially post. Can we do that, or is that just a technician thing to have access to?

PLUS, do we have unlimited time to edit our posts once posted?! I really like that, as I read and read and just find more and more mistakes!! (Plus, it's not giving an edit time, which I really like. Unless I choose to admit my damn mistakes!)

THERE, back on track here! Rollin' now!

OK, third question. Other than a photo as a person's avatar, when we can then open a profile... where do we see if there is a photo of anyone there? (Like their gallary shots.) I can't seem to locate the place for that.

And will we keep the main posting profile just as it is. As in no info. on the post page about us? (One has to open up a profile to see where one is from and all, right? I don't mind it, it has it's advantages actually...) Just curious. Kind of nice not having the "label" thing right there - for a change of pace.

P.S. *I'll send ya a photo if I can get a nice looking pile/stack going here! Perhaps this can be the motivator I have been looking for!!
:bolt:

ETA: Wait, I'll go and read more on the FAQ! (Now that I know what that means! LOLOL!!) So, never mind, I'm sure I can DO THIS!! Unless there is something I'm asking that may NOT be there for the answer... (?)

You can do this by hitting the double As on the right in your editor (the ones on the left removes formatting altogether while the ones on the right shows the BB tags.

[I'mOneToo]

is there a 12 step recovery group for players of that game? cuz i'd need that.

:poodle:

Can we get a new Tech Guru? This one thinks he's funny.


Heeheehee... struck by the too-close semicolon.:walking-poodle: This makes me happy because I used to dye one of my poodles for Gay Pride parade in Lansing.

[PapaC]

:poodle:

Can we get a new Tech Guru? This one thinks he's funny.

Ok, for the record.... I just want to be crystal clear here, because it must be said:

I was never comfortable being 'crowned' a Tech Guru (speaking only for myself, not Mr. Linus). I went along with all that hype to *cough* be polite... (besides kinda hard to be be a guru with both hands tied behind ones back)

I'd like to bring up another subject that yes I'll admit has been prompted by a discussion on another vbulletin site, and that's the matter of deleting accounts, or when it's requested to do so.

Admin please see this only as a suggestion, the last thing I want to come across as is patronizing. But I'm very ... perturbed.

A user felt no recourse but to ask for their account to be deleted in a public thread. Now, I'm not an idiot it seems to be the *opposite* of what one should do if they don't want to use their account. I also get that deleting accounts and threads and posts and things can cause corruption of data in databases (check). (never mind that there's optimized tools for that and 'techy' things aren't 100% such is life)

So here's my suggestion for here just is would work *elsewhere*. Putting a username into a usergroup where the username doesn't show up in the membership list is hella easy. (just ask June as she's dancing in the "Coppa"cabana) That's step one. Step two: deleting posts... not something you might choose to do but if you feel this person is genuinely concerned for their safety, there is something called the "soft delete" making all posts invisible for public consumption.

Sorry if I I'm sounding frustrated folks but I think as *this* site grows issues like this will crop up. And with a lot of things, there usually are exceptions to 'rules'.

just ask June... as she's still dancing at the 'Coppa'cabana. :tease:

(with plenty of snarky goodness in the direction of the snark queen).

Admin - what say ye? feel free to discuss this more in private.
To the rest, my apologies if this post is laced with a few not-so private jokes.

[Medusa]

I think these are all great suggestions!

I also saw a user over there asking for their name to be deleted for privacy concerns - would it also be an option if that ever happened over here to change the persons user name to something innocuous like "bbbb" or "nolongerinuse1"?

thoughts?

[Arwen]

Hinduism & Tibetan Buddhism. A personal spiritual teacher. (PapaC, you are definitely a teacher.)


A teacher and guide in spiritual and philosophical matters.
A trusted counselor and adviser; a mentor.(PapaC, you are definitely someone I would go to for advice and counsel on tech things..)



A recognized leader in a field: the guru of high finance.(PapaC, you are definitely recognized.)
An acknowledged and influential advocate, as of a movement or idea: "In a culture that worships slimness, he was the Guru of Lean" (Erica Abeel).(PapaC, you are definitely influential.)



So, sorry sugar, seems you do qualify as a guru. :)

Hey honey, yeah, *I* think that's a great idea, but I just don't know how it would fly in the backend with mysql. Some google research might help. PM later tonight if you wanna chit chat about that.



So, sorry sugar, seems you do qualify as a guru. :)

Dearest Arwen, thanks for that you just gave me the biggest smile and blush of the day. I'm very humbled. thank you. :)

So sorry to bother you, I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask.

What happens when we purchase a membership? How long does it take to kick in?

Is there spellcheck?

Thank you!

Hey sweets!

I juuuuusst flipped the switch for you so your options should be working !!:)

We are going to add a mod for spellcheck probably this week along with several others

[Sweet_Pea]

Ohhhhhhhh! I have one!!! A KERMIT THE FROG avatar!!!! Its a nessessity!!!
( i plan on being a paid subscriber soon and being able to make my own, but until then....)

[NotAnAverageGuy]

Avatars, is there a certain dimension we are supposed to use? And is that a paid member thing or no?

[Admin]

Custom avatars (like a Kermit one ;) ) are available to paid members :)

but yes, they need to be no larger than 100x100.

I was thinking it might be 'nice' to have a button whereby one could donate even the smallest amount in recognition of a certain event - birthdays, anniversaries, the passing of exams, or simply something good happening out of the blue - to go towards a specific purpose (covering the registration fee, for example, of someone deserving who would like to attend the reunion but who for financial reasons would be hard pressed to do so without some help?)

Apart from anything else, if the reason were displayed for all to see, I think it would help us all in terms of feeling even more connected.

Thoughts?

[julieisafemme]

I love that idea. That feels like a community.

I like that. Would these be for a specific user's "trust fund" or a general pool "trust fund"?

[Words]

Well, what made me think about it was my son passing his driving test the other day. It's custom in the Middle East (we lived there for years) to pass out sweets to neighbours and friends when something good happens and it made me kind of sad that we had no one close by to do that with. So I got to thinking, what if there were a way I could pass out virtual sweets? I guess I could have simply made a small donation but I wanted to share the reason I was happy as well as the actual 'sweets'...

Make sense?

[Words]

I like that. Would these be for a specific user's "trust fund" or a general pool "trust fund"?


No, a general trust fund Linus.

I just think it would be really nice to know when one was donating that it was going toward a specific purpose (the example I used, i.e., the reunion, being a cause particularly dear to my own heart. Everyone should get to go to the reunion and I just hate the idea that for some people, some really good people, it might not be doable for financial reasons.)

But you know what, coming to think of it...perhaps we could have several funds. You know, I would like to donate to a. b., or c. Yes? No? Maybe?

[Apocalipstic]

I'm back! This is all so cool.

So I posted pictures and they are HUGE, I want to see myself less clearly. eeeeekkkkkk Where is the delete button for the galleries, I have seen it mentioned, but I just can't find it. So sorry.

and

Are there terms of service with what we can and can't do? Rules? that sort of thing?

Thank you also for how quickly and graciously you are handling things! I know we are high maintenance.

Hey Words!

I really resonate with you on helping people get to the Reunion. Lemme do some thinking on it on how the best way to do this will be and we can either put up a donate button going to a specific account for those causes or we can figure out something else.

We will DEFINITELY be taking a hard look at our finances here on the site around Reunion time to see what kind of scholarships the site can provide from the remaining funds. We, of course, want to pay our server fees first and will probably have to come up with most of our deposits in cash since we have no credit as a site to book events yet.

We do have a strong, non-negotiable commitment as Admins of this site to see that every single dollar that comes into this site will go back to support the community in one form or another. That means that we might pay the server fees, upgrade the software, hardware, pay for any needed tech support, Reunion costs, and an emergency fund.....and that when we have ANY money left over, we will look at ways to scholarship people to the Reunion, give grants to artists and writers, or help send folks to conferences.

This isnt a business to us, its a community, and I would probably die of joy if we were able to do a low-cost Reunion and also scholarship several folks...and for folks who didn't want to attend the Reunion, we can work at other ways of supporting their passions.

I cant WAIT to see this community grow!

XO!

Hey you...

When I open up one of my pictures, along the top pink bar and over to the far right is a drop-down called Photo Options. When I click on that, I get a drop-down menu and can select Edit Photo. The delete option is in there.

Waldo's wishlist:

Links from posts to galleries. I like to perv.

An Active Topics page, with full pagination so we can scroll through all the recently updated threads, not just the first fifteen. I'm lazy and don't like having to go forum to forum. Like this link - but inclusive of all threads, not just the new stuff since you last logged in: http://www.butchfemmeplanet.com/forum/search.php?do=getnew

Can we get location on the Member list? I like being able to see where people are spread out to.

I'm sure I'll think of something else as soon as I go to bed tonight.

Up there, darlin, on the right, under Quick Links--"Today's Posts." It's usually two to three pages long. Is that what you were looking for?

[Duchess]

I'm in love with the smilies. How about a "Thanks for nothing" button? :)

[Bit]

As soon as we have a server that can handle it, 40-post-default pages would be GREAT. It's nice to be able to read most of a new thread without paging through, yanno?

[Duchess]

A photo button on profiles would be nice. Maybe there's already a shortcut and I'm not seeing it. I have to say again, the smilies RAWK!!!

[Kimbo]

Hello--

Just wondering if you could answer a question for me. Tonight I was able to access the galleries without logging in. Do you plan to keep the photo galleries open to the public?

My personal wish would be that you keep gallery access to only logged in registered members of the site. Just my thoughts...

Thanks in advance.

Kim

[suebee]

Photo galleries. I don't see no freakin' photo galleries! :4femme:

[NotAnAverageGuy]

I have seen the galleries when I clicked on a link in a members siggy line

[Kimbo]

Photo galleries. I don't see no freakin' photo galleries! :4femme:

I had to ask as well...If you hit the big BFP graphic at the top left of the window you will be taken to another panel where you will see galleries as an option in a list there.

[Admin]

Innnnteresting.

No, you are not supposed to be able to see the galleries when logged out.
Im going to double-check the settings there because I just logged out and tried to view them and I couldnt get in.

Thanks for the heads up!

Edited to add: Our settings are correct:

"Require users to be registered to view images? yes"

Hmmm...I hate to tell you this but those maybe your settings but that is not what is happening. I would be more than happy to share my view with you. I can get into the gallery and look at photo's without logging in.

Hi I have a wish. I wish that in the forum section, the sex part be separated from BDSM and kink. I am a very vanilla person, and have found it advisable in the past to just totally stay awayfrom BDSM theads. But I can talk about sex with the best of them. I also like a lot of things that most humans would consider kinky, but which do not involve bd ds or sm. Could we vanillainians get access to the sex discussions wihtout having to go into the BDSM threads? Pleeeeeeease?

No insult intended here for BDSM folks it just comes under the heading of "if you don't like it dont go there" for me. But I like sex ALOT.

Smooches,
Keri

Haven't read this whole thread, but perhaps a better stronger faster harder chat program? I know it's an add on so even if we get a better/ different server the chat will still lag/ get stuck.. do odd junk according to what some techy types have told me. We have a handful of morning coffee chatters that would love it!
Please note: this is not to say that all the lil bells and whistles of this chat aren't super groovy, they are, but if they come at the cost of lagging and losing parts of convos I bet we would gladly do without it :)

Thanks a heap! Happy Thanksgiving folks!!

{{{{{{{{{{{Selly}}}}}}}}}} Thank you, but I've already tried that. Any option other than "default" makes the server time out. It was mondo annoying last week, and I know from past experience that it's an issue with this particular software. (That's why I said, when the server is upgraded... I know that changing the default to 40 when the server is smaller will cause no end of misery for everyone.)

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful :(

Ah well, Selly, thanks for trying! And who knows, maybe fast computers don't have so much trouble with it. I only have basic DSL, and these days that's nearly the equivalent of dial-up. *wry laugh*

I love that you fixed the gallery thingie but now I can no longer view ANYTHING without logging in !!!


I get the error message requiring me to log in to view the forums page, or any page. I've tried
different angles, including rebooting my computer but I still get the "You must be Registered"

It's got to be something I'm doing on this end, though I cannot for the life of me figure it out !

Do you have any suggestions?
HELP !
