Blogs
 
I can't be the only one who can't access Abeguy's blog, right? I keep trying every day but it keeps saying it doesn't exist.

Phylum 03-07-2015 03:05 PM

It's probably been deleted. It happens.

This. He's hard deleted it, so not even I can see it.

Shade667 03-07-2015 05:46 PM

Guess well never know about that man...

The forum doesnt remove it after its been deleted?

Varrok 03-07-2015 10:12 PM

It is removed, but it remains on the Newest Five Blogs for some reason. It'll get buried and forgotten soon.

Nate 03-07-2015 10:38 PM

vBulletin is and always has been broken. Version 3 more than most.

Varrok 03-07-2015 10:41 PM

Let's move to PhpBB, and delete all of our posts prior that.

Nate 03-07-2015 10:45 PM

Peter's developing his own forum software and won't switch us to anything before it's done.

Pause for laughter.

I dont get it...

Varrok 03-08-2015 12:08 AM

The punchline is that Peter's lazy.

Shade667 03-08-2015 03:31 AM

Ok...





Haha.

Seriously just switch us over to Xenforo already. Vbulletin is a sinking ship. Everyone and their dog, every single major forum, has already bailed. Please can we bail as well?

Nate 03-08-2015 05:35 PM

I think it's pretty clear that Peter's already bailed on these forums. Unfortunately, he took the keys with him.

Havoc 03-09-2015 12:34 AM

Can't we ask for them nicely? Or lacking that, lure him into an alley and take them? :D

Job McYossie 03-09-2015 01:31 AM

Havoc are you sure you understand how the Internet works?

Yes I do. The second option would obviously only work if you knew where he lived.

Seriously though, didn't one of the admins at one point get server access? I seem to remember something like that.

I've tried the former repeatedly. As for the latter... I might be seeing him in April, so I'll what I can do.

Nope. Only Peter and Kristen.

I don't understand why you wouldn't hand over the proverbial keys if you're not involved in the site anymore. Even if it was a case of funding I'm sure the members that could would chip in, I sure would.

Shade667 03-10-2015 02:33 AM

Maybe he just forgot about the site?

Havoc 03-10-2015 02:46 AM

Nah, Peter is a control freak. OWF is somewhere on the bottom of his to-do list. And as long as it's on the list he'll get to it eventually and no-one needs to do it for him. Or so he keeps telling himself.

Job McYossie 03-10-2015 08:33 PM

Nep I hate you. So much.

Nate 03-10-2015 09:36 PM

I suspect that Peter also feels a certain possessiveness because this place was such a big part of his adolescence. He doesn't want to give that up.

Mr. Bungle 03-10-2015 09:58 PM

Didn't he go through hell (and drama) to get to his adminship as well?

I mean, I wasn't there, but I've heard a few stories from the "old days".

Either way dude needs to shape up or give it up.

STM 03-10-2015 11:19 PM

Could start another forum. >.>

Getting people to switch would be hard as hell and we wouldn't be able to use the same domain. I suspect it'd more likely that either the forum community here would die off due to separation or the switch would never be fully supported.

Phylum 03-11-2015 01:53 AM

Remember that time we tried to get everyone talking on MA's forum? I thought not.

Also, remember how successful the Glass Dildo was?

If people really want to take the forum over, we need to do it by force. Viva la révolution!

STM 03-11-2015 02:59 AM

I'm just saying, to be honest this place needs a total overhaul to still be relevant in 2015.

Manco 03-11-2015 03:24 AM

let’s just move the whole thing over to facebook

STM 03-11-2015 03:30 AM

Not everyone wants to mix Facebook up with forums though. I mean, it can't just be me, unless it was a closed secret grpup I guess, but then how do you get new members.

Manco 03-11-2015 03:39 AM

I was joking.
