Please don't flood the messageboard again. I saw it coming. Go duke it out in BGII with your characters next time...

Mandrake 12-19-2000 07:27 AM

Ok everyone. Its our fault the board crashed.
Melisune, Wah, Jon, Myself and Armisael!
We flooded the board and knocked it out!
Its all Melisune's fault. She started it *Nods lots*
If Armisael hadnt have come in 50 feet tall though we would have been ok!
So its all his fault!
Wah and I are innocent!
*Nods some more*

ironfist 12-19-2000 07:36 AM

hey, what happened anyway, is there a final limit posts
on this board or what? We have lost posts from the
last 2 weeks, not good.

Mandrake 12-19-2000 07:52 AM

I know we have lost them! And it bites, Big time!

Armisael 12-19-2000 08:09 AM

Oh, yeah. Blame me. Just because my posts make up 10% of this board's total content...

Memnoch 12-19-2000 08:11 AM

Did i miss something? I was only away for 5 days.
Anyway we should be moving to the new UBB software soon.

Mandrake 12-19-2000 08:13 AM

At least you will admit its your fault!
Damn you coming in 50 feet tall!
Lol!
Melisune did start it Though!

Memnoch 12-19-2000 08:15 AM

Oh. I just noticed that my Customization post isn't there anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just when we were approaching Jerome's record of 120 replies to the thread...

At least my record still shows 792 posts...

Armisael 12-19-2000 08:19 AM

Explanatory note:
Melusine and Wah, having just reached a hundred and fifty total posts, started a little mini-war to see who could post the fastest. Sensing an incoming disaster and being the nice person I am, I walked in with my eleven-hundred post bulk and stomped them into sad little red smudges (for the greater good). Then the board went down.

Moiraine 12-19-2000 08:35 AM

Are all the entries lost for good ? Or is it recoverable ?

Armisael 12-19-2000 08:37 AM

With any luck, our resident miracle-worker Ziroc will come up with something. : )

Memnoch 12-19-2000 09:08 AM

Doubt if the posts would be. don;t know if Ziroc would bother with us moving to the UBB software soon.

Rikard T'Aranaxz 12-19-2000 09:11 AM

Glad ya'll don't blame
me
but are my telahan stories gone

Armisael 12-19-2000 09:13 AM

Yeah, but he managed to get the posts back last time we lost them.

Yorick 12-19-2000 09:15 AM

Memnoch, Ammissael, I can't believe I'm replying! I've had that many problems logging into this site. I love your posts guys, I'm a Sydneysider myself, completed the game four times and have enjoyed reading the posts - though have found it annoying when voiceless. Feel like I know you so forgive the familiarity. Anyhow the crash sounds hilarious....

Armisael 12-19-2000 09:26 AM

Heh, welcome. I'd say more but I'm on my way to bed. I'm already pissed as a newt, and I'm going to have another bloody hangover tomorrow, not to mention work. You sound pretty pickled yourself, Memnoch. Too hot to sleep sober this time of year.

Yorick 12-19-2000 09:31 AM

It's only 1:30am! Oh well sleep well. (Too hot to sleep for me, and I'm not drunk.....)

Rikard T'Aranaxz 12-19-2000 09:48 AM

Wow a lot of aussies here

Yorick 12-19-2000 09:55 AM

Where are you from Rikard?

Rikard T'Aranaxz 12-19-2000 10:06 AM

The United Provinces of The Netherlands

Yorick 12-19-2000 10:35 AM

Mate I've got a couple of Dutch friends and I have to say that except for Van Hoogenband your people are very cool indeed. (Alas poor Thorpie, I knew him Popov)

Mandrake 12-19-2000 01:29 PM

No response from Wah Jon or Melisune. Offline or guilt conciense?

Rikard T'Aranaxz 12-19-2000 01:51 PM

Offline?

Holy Mage Wah 12-19-2000 01:57 PM

HEY I'm here!!! so no pointing fingers at me!! It hit me with a bang too when I lost ALL MY HARD WORK.

Melusine had no idea too so i guess she is totally clueless like I am.

Holy Mage Wah 12-19-2000 02:03 PM

BTW - thanks Mandrake for redirecting the fingers from me.

Mandrake 12-19-2000 02:09 PM

Thats Ok Wah. Figured I owed it to you after revealing to everyone you bought your mage boots from K-Mart!

Holy Mage Wah 12-19-2000 03:11 PM

why you......................!!!

Mandrake 12-19-2000 03:28 PM

Heh!
I get mine from there. Noone told me they were cursed boots of fumbling!
Damn it!
*Trips over.........again*

Melusine 12-20-2000 08:00 AM

So...I'm finally back...yes I was just offline, not experiencing any guilt
As all of you know I'm relatively new on this board, and therefore I had no idea that the board could crash like that from Wah's and my posts.
So while I do apologise to everyone whose threads where lost, I did not do this on purpose (and 1. I hear the posts aren't lost at all but Ziroc somehow managed to save them and they are being transferred to the new board and 2. I lost a lot of threads myself too). Secondly as Wah pointed out I was clueless as to what had happened, and therefore think it pretty lame of Mandrake to shove all blame on me like that. As I recall, you were happily posting along when we held our little match. So if you all saw the crash coming then why didn't you warn us??? Btw my name is spelled M-E-L-U-S-I-N-E
Ok yes so I'm a bit mad, but I just think its really unlike this normally very friendly board to put someone down like this, especially when I'm simply too inexperienced with Forums to have been able to see any of this coming.

Armisael 12-20-2000 08:08 AM

Hey, take it easy. We're only joking around. The crash probably didn't even have anything to do with that thread, just UltraBoard showing its age. Besides, he actually shoved all the blame on me. : P

BaatoRyan 12-20-2000 08:10 AM

I was actually looking for Memnoch's Customization post and it's gone! I have a question that needs to be answered!!!

BaatoRyan 12-20-2000 08:13 AM

This is my 194th post!!! I am getting to 200!!! well, considering my short stay *AHEM* hehe

Yorick 12-20-2000 10:25 AM

Melusine you rock.... love your posts and personability. (Smiling warmly) And yes your online voice is Ambrosia.

Mandrake 12-20-2000 06:01 PM

Dont take what I said seriously Melusine. I was jestering. I didnt know the board was going to crash anymore than anyone else did. Im also convinced it was nothing to do with you and Wah posting. If you have a look at the tone of the initial post I figured the fact that I was joking was coming across pretty strongly!

Jon the Hell Caster 12-20-2000 06:22 PM

I must admit that a few days ago I was responisible in some manner. I started about 20 topics and wrote about 30 posts because I had and still have Conjenctivitus or Pink Eye and have to stay home. Also I um.. Cast haste on Melusine and Slow on Holy Mage Wah. Don't worry Melusine I don't blame you the only thing is that I am mad that all of my 20 topics got deleted!

Mandrake 12-20-2000 06:25 PM

I think Ziroc managed to save all the posts that were lost Jon.

Suul-Yinn 12-20-2000 07:03 PM

What's a few lost posts amongst friends? There is still enough to stake out a homestead in the Outback! The new board looks good, lets hope it's more stable. Rikard you are a wonder, if your ever in Scotland drops us a line and I will crack open a bottle of cask strength malt. Mandrake you are also invited since you fancy a nip by all accounts lol. Melusine in answer to one of your lost posts, yes I love Scotland too. If you need any info re Scottish Universities etc all you need to do is ask. By the way I visited Holland years ago and I really enjoyed myself. Friendly people, good beer and grass is legal Favourite place though is Barcelona, an amazing city with something for everybody. Good Uni too.

Mandrake 12-21-2000 12:50 AM

Nice to see my sense of humour hasnt scared you away completly Melusine. You had me worried taking it all serious. Welcome back!

Rikard T'Aranaxz 12-21-2000 01:41 AM
