AFTER 8;00 PM CENTRAL ANYTHING YOU POST HERE MAY BE LOST.

AT 9:00 PM I WILL BE LOCKING THIS BORAD DOWN AND LISTING THE NEW ADDRESS.

I WILL ALSO SEND OUT A MASS E-MAIL (CHECK YOUR SPAM) WITH THE NEW ADDRESS.

THANKS!

[Tubalard]

But before the lock down, we can post anything and it shall be kept for record, is that correct?

Oh man...

[Viratas]

Yes all the posts from here will be moved over prior to 8 pm

"ANYTHING" is what I said, to which you promptly agreed...

I wouldn't count on content posted from this point out making it.  It may, it may not, depending on the point at which the database dump happens.

Re: ANYTHING... Nice post you got, there, pal.  It would be a shame if something was to happen to it.  Sites move, things get broken, you know what I mean?

Tubby,  

there are still rules to this board so if ANYTHING means against the rules, I'm guessing Viratas won't have it.

By the way, why the change?  I hate Change!!!  I hate FILA because they cause too much Change!!  Did I say I hate change?

msparrrrrrrrrrt

I sympathize.  If you want to send me your change, on a regular basis, I'm sure we can arrange something with a local bank.

We (and I'm in on the back end now, so it's "we") are changing because we can't access the guts of the site, here, and make changes; because the service has been unreliable; and because we'd like to do things which just aren't going to be possible with the present arrangement.

There will be at least one further move, after this, but it should be much more transparent than this one.

P.S. There will be other changes, too, implemented over time. This site can be better than it is.

Ray,

Thank you for bringing me back from the edge.  Whew!!!

Ok, I still hate FILA though.  If change is better, I'm better able to deal with it.  But FILA type change, I guess I'd rather not talk about it.

Have a great day.  It sounds like you are in cohoots with Viratas.  True?

I assure you, we will have only the finest net-ripened changes, hand-picked by Swedish virgins, and wafted on pure optical fiber to an internet service provider near you.  There will be none of that FILA stuff.

By the way, one other announcement.  From now on, when no one has won a political argument after 30 posts, one of the participants will be chosen with a Ouija board.  The discussion will be frozen for all other participants, and he will be given 5 posts with which to conclude the argument.  We're still trying to decide on a punishment if he manages to lose; possibly electing him to some public office.

And I'm not in Cahoots, I'm in Pittsburgh.  But I am working with Viratas on this, yes.

[mspart]

Now that's change I can believe in!!!!

Thanks Ray, it sounds like all hoops are being jumped through.
