Oh, God. Oh, God. My hair. My hair! The government gave me bad hair!

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They've fixed everything else I noted, but no reply yet on the missing mail.

DX, did you have mail left in your mailbox that didn't make it over, or was it just admins? Support says they'll move it manually if need be.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Just admins, unless there was some Really Important message about an online pharmacy that showed up in my box sometime between when I last polled the mailbox Sunday and the big move.

There was another Plesk bug that moved the mail into the wrong folder. So it should be fixed up.

Jesse, we're going to be billed for three hours (although it took four--we're apparently a good customer).

Yup, the mail's back where it belongs. Yay for the tech guys.

They're really nice, and pretty responsive at all hours.

I'm poking around the brave new world, and it looks like we have a big pool of pre-coded applications we can install easily. I notice they have phpWiki which reminds me of my ancient plan to find wiki software I could modify to use our authentication.

I also found Bug Tracker which I figure is a better way to track board bugs than having someone maintain a web page with them in. Not really sure how it works yet, though.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Cool. Very exciting!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Ooh, shiny!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Cool.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

We are going to need another Natter name soon.
