"I discovered a thread a little while ago -- Basically, Christian got shafted by the company maintaining his server, and has only have the amount of memory (RAM) that they're supposed to."

Wouldn't that be this thread?

Charles, the new board looks great, even though some of us had to reset our passwords, and some of us (including me) lost posts during the move. ChristmageGalen suggested that threads in TNZ be created so that those of us who lost posts can regain them by spamming specifically in those threads. His thread is 230 postsstrong at this point. link [Big Grin]

Isn't spamming what everyone ALWAYS does on Trek_BBS anyway?

no, i think that last March, user Kahn Noonyan Sink accidentally posted three sentences of relevant opinion about the uniform design of Voyager between two paragraphs of insults to the administrators who gave him a verbal warning for calling CaptianJRiker a 'Bermanist.' After the relevant comment, however, he posted twelve lines of swear words and a link to TrollKingdom.

But yes, other than that isolated incident, there is no relevance to anything there.

I think that's the best sarcastic summary of the TrekBBS (except the Trek Tech forum) I've read lately.

Don't mind me... I'm not paying attention to anything since I don't have to apply myself over Christmas break... [Wink]

Why is it that everyone over there is so obsessed with post count?

Because over there they all get to have their kEWl Starfleet ranks and appear more important. Also, Christian set up those rank-specific "Officer's Lounges" that people are obsessed with getting into for some reason.

One of several reasons why I rarely go over there any more and almost never post.

But the real question is, whether it swallows.

We appreciate your concern.
It is noted and stupid.

If hear another one of them complain that they lost a percentage of their post count, I'm gonna fucking reset ALL of them to zero. I fucking swear.

I'm sick and tired of it. Sick and tired.

Thank God it's not that bad here.

Don't forget the Storm Ruckers! Or does he count as a troll?
