Welcome back
 

Isn't this fun? We're back again. Tell your friends. Tell your family. Tell your neighbor who washes his 1995 Buick Century every Saturday in his driveway.

NGL, I genuinely thought it might be down for the count this time. Nice to see it isn't.

Anyone know what the fuck happened?

Re: Welcome back
 

Goblins, I'd wager. Or maybe zombies?

Re: Welcome back
 

Holy shit, that was the longest downtime we've ever had. It thought it was really over this time.

Re: Welcome back
 

No idea what happened. Don't know of any good places to go if this place does shut down.

Likely a missed payment. The server is also really fucking ancient and is still using code from the original 2 servers before it. This baby is probably older than the 2000s based on functioning code alone. Whatever server that maintains it is probably just as old and starting to fail or it keeps getting moved around. It doesn't help that it's Powered by vBulletin® Version 3.8.7

vBulletin is ancient and practically speaking dead. Straight up end of life software.

If you want The Process to continue someone will need to make a new website on something more stable.

How would us users help in supporting that?
I'm down for a piggybacking upgrade effort.

Re: Welcome back
 

I am not the one to ask, nor would I do it if I could. I do not support some threads here and if given my way, the AR/AP thread would not exist on the next incarnation. I find it's concept too close to CP for comfort. If one does remake the process, my suggestion is to not allow that thread to exist in the next version. All else should be fine.

Well, that went in an unexpected direction lol.
I'm of the opinion that, so long as noone real was harmed or depicted, its an ok thing baring full on intercourse with young ones.
It's important to draw divides between things like this and real life.

Should all violence in media be banned for its depiction of murder and aggression?
Should the TF section be removed for the mutilation of the human form when those tfs are against their will?
Should evil masterminds be removed from overarching plots to avoid inspiring the creation of evil ideas amongst real people?
Should shows like Breaking Bad and Dexter be banned for drugs and insidious, petty behavior?

It's up to us as adults (hopefully) to know the difference between fantasy and reality. And also important to identify that distinction as such; fantasy, is just that.

Its a slippery slope to tread.

Re: Welcome back
 

I have a rule when it comes to AR/AP. All characters can not cross the age of 18. Nor can they be younger than 18. That way you can avoid all that other stuff.

I genuinely wasn't expecting it to come back, this time! I just so happened to follow a link that brought me here, and... Thank God it did! ��
