    Default The 'Where's Styx?' thread

    Once, long ago, I started a messageboard.

    The very first person to register went by the name of Styx, and mighty was his posting skill.

    Nations trembled at his words, but small furry animals were his friends.

    This thread goes out in hopes of finding Styx once more, and [s]harnessing his power to strike down our enemies[/s] ...err, having him post here once again.

    Well, I am finally here and Styx will be when he gets back from work. Guess I will be feeding the horses today lol.

    Raine, what email eh? I went through all this effort to get my password back after many backwards and forwards of emails . . . (new book coming out with Kall as the author by the way) . . . Anyway, as I was saying about looking forward to an email, since those are few and far between these days and there was NOTHING!!!!

    Seems I owe y'all an apology. There was a teeny snippet of code in the navbar that I forgot to fix up after an edit this morning...on the default template.

    Effectively this meant that nayone using the Professional Alternate style was unable to log in, regardless of their password.

    Yo yo yooooo!

    Yep, I am arisen, and ready to battle the forces of darkness. Or spout meaningless drivel, whichever is more appropriate to the situation at hand . . .

    Have cleaned the dust off my profile (not that there was much, thanks to a party of squirrels who had taken over and kept the dust at bay with their wonderful bushy tails) and finally managed to log in. However . . . immediately upon doing so, I got that gut-wrenching message so feared by site managers, "The page cannot be displayed"

    The following thought ran through my head (wearing hobnail boots and thumping a large bass drum) that I had broken Kall's site. I understand that my return must have been quite a shock, but I was under the impression that websites were above adverse reactions of that nature . . .

    Anyway, I've just got in from work, and am happy to report that a) I can log in, and b) The page CAN be found

    So, what've I missed, huh, huh?

    Your last post was around June 20.

    Not a hell of a lot, we caught some guy posting in colour and had to have him executed...somebody questioned the way I do things...likewise executed..

    Nah..umm, there was a period of amusement, followed by periods of boredom, followed by more periods of amusement.

    The site is stable tho now...which is a bonus.

    Oh...

    That's the keys to the stationery cupboard and the Executive Washroom, right? Oh hang on - are those two still in the temporary location? i.e. the big blue portaloo outside the back door?
