I thought this was some kind of mirror site. Bad news.<br><br>"Ads by Google" and Ezboard is a Google site. The game is on. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=hughmanateewins>Hugh Manatee Wins</A> at: 11/3/06 3:52 am<br></i>

And how do the above two posters pay for their internet connection each month? Do you pay with this insidious form of slavery that The Powers That Be call...money?<br><br>Do you manufacture your own power that you use to surf the internet?<br><br>Did you manufacture that computer that you're using to log on here?<br><br>Get the point yet? Jeff is a paid writer and deserves to make some change from running this site. There's nothing wrong with a little bit of capitalism...it allows us a place for you to bitch about The Man and his Powers That Be.<br><br>Jeff, I hope you make enough to retire early and live comfortably for the rest of your life...as long as you don't stick the earnings in an income trust, right? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br> <p></p><i></i>

From my view, I see that the previously tacked messages (two of them) at the top of this forum are gone.<br><br>And is the video thread locked because it is too heavy? <p></p><i></i>

Apart from google ad income, don't they also track online movement? <p></p><i></i>

Actually, having the ads is loooking pretty good--I see that I just won a 42" plasma TV. <br><br>---heh, heh.<br><br><br>Actually, I'm going to think of it as something like camoflouge. Now the PTB will never spot us--we'll just 'blend in'. Mwahahahahaha! <p></p><i></i>

Hmm.......I think maybe Jeff didn't pay his Ezboard fees...this is what they do to free sites. I know his goal was to move to another host, so this may be deliberate until he makes that move. However, I'm pretty sure I'm the one who won the 42 inch...<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Dreams End has it right. (Though for some reason I don't see the ads.)<br><br>It was going to cost another $200+ for three more months of "Gold Service," and I mean to migrate the board over <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.rigorousintuition.ca/board/">here</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> very shortly, hopefully within a week. (Or as quickly as I can figure out how to do it.) <p></p><i></i>

well I haven't scooped the 42", but I could<br> <!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>FIND YOUR PERFECT LOVER.<br>right down to their name<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>or get the<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>SILENT RINGTONE<br>IMPOSSIBLE FOR PARENTS AND TEACHERS TO HEAR<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>but the Ad invasion does have its up- side.<br>now I can click, go boil the kettle, make a pot of tea, wait for the tea to brew, pour a cup of tea, sit back and relax whilst sipping said tea, and then the page comes up.<br>I'll probably just have to allocate every other click for running to the loo.<br> <p></p><i></i>

Jeff,<br><br>Before you get started, I strongly urge you to consider using SMF Forum software as opposed to PHPbb. <br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.simplemachines.org/">Simple Machines</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>There are many reasons for this but mainly, if you look at the list of security vulnerabilities found in each, it is a no brainer. I'll add the list comparing the two later on today.<br><br>I've used both.....SMF is the way to go, especially if your unfamiliar with Forum software...much much easier to admin. It is free as well.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.theadminzone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16952">PHBbb vs. SMF</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>Either way, I'm looking forward to it...<br><br>~C<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

SMF

Appreciate the imput, Cosmic Cowbell. But I don't think there is a conversion script for ezboard to SMF. <p></p><i></i>

Re: "SMF"--sounds like a singles ad, but anyway

Postby pepsified thinker » Fri Nov 03, 2006 2:01 pm

I'm not at all savvy about these web-server-thingies, so forgive if this is an obvious question, but I tried the link for where you're going to post RI, and tried to register. It said my username was already in use/claimed (something along those lines)--but when I tried to log in, it didn't seem to recognize me. <br><br>Will we need to register at the new 'location'? <br> <p></p><i></i>

if you do not wish to see google ads then browse with firefox and install ad blocker.<br>There is also an addon for firefox for customizing google to protect your privacy <p></p><i></i>
