If you have been trying to send me any e-mails (to [email protected]) for the past week or so, there has been some sort of obscure bug which has caused them all to not arrive properly. I have verified that it works again now. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-07-01 15:07:?? UTC) |
You seem to have stopped posting almost entirely. Why? | Sysop | 10 months (2009-07-01 10:20:?? UTC) |
Two updates: You can now immediately watch a topic when you create it, and in 300 baud mode, when you start a new topic, just like when you post a new reply, you are shown a minimal page instead of the topic. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-30 20:14:?? UTC) |
Stop making so many fucking topics about the fucking board itself. New rule: No topics about the board if one has been made in the ~100 latest topics. Send a private message or something instead. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-30 18:01:?? UTC) |
Stop. Fucking. Going. Off-topic. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 23:32:?? UTC) |
No more wiseguys needed. Hope the new ones won't "go postal"… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 19:25:?? UTC) |
Killed a nasty bug that I just accidentally let in. If you experienced any weirdness in the last 30 minutes, it should now be completely gone. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 18:36:?? UTC) |
Update to the 300 baud mode: You are now no longer taken back to the topic when you post a reply. Instead, you are shown a minimal page with a link. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 18:06:?? UTC) |
By the way… it's OK to re-apply to become a wiseguy if you were once one here and got unmade simply because of lack of activity, if you have more time on your hands now. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 15:01:?? UTC) |
Why apply to become a wiseguy, having read what this means, and then just sit on your ass and never help out? Rude fucks. (New wiseguys needed.) | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 14:45:?? UTC) |
Automated appeal system for bans and even shitlisting coming "soon". I feel bad for quite a few bans, even though they were technically correct… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 03:15:?? UTC) |
(Hah! You never know whether a bulletin is going to be a new, exciting update of the board, or just another angry rant, before you read it! Evil, huh?) | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 02:20:?? UTC) |
Watchlist enhanced: You can now clear "old junk" (over two months) easily. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-29 02:18:?? UTC) |
What the fuck is with all these morons who can't take getting their shitty posts deleted? "Go ahead and ban me" ← I wonder what's gonna happen when you post things like this… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-28 21:07:?? UTC) |
Yes, the Fleshlight ad is another test. It will be removed soon. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-28 20:29:?? UTC) |
Gotta love the pathetic extortion attempts by retarded trolls… "Do as I say or I'll DDoS you." ← Fuck off, retard. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-27 21:16:?? UTC) |
Wow. You just keep on posting shit. This is unbelievable. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-27 15:33:?? UTC) |
Donations are really needed. I don't know how many times I have said that and gotten completely ignored… It's pretty bad to promise to donate and then, when I actually get the expensive snail mail box, you just don't. Unfaithful AnTs, killing AT… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-27 12:29:?? UTC) |
Stop making so God damn many crappy topics about the board itself all the time. Try actually using it instead of constantly "discussing" it… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-27 01:46:?? UTC) |
"Topics" and "Polls" in the main menu (AKA "AT bar") now also get a "!" if there are new items, just like the "Bulletins" one for quite some time. The "Watchlist" one is coming but requires very advanced coding and optimizations. (See how I just spoil you with new features and goodies all day only to be treated like dirt?) | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-26 23:01:?? UTC) |
You're gonna have to start POSTING, DONATING and SPREADING THE WORD if you want this place to survive. But obviously you are a bunch of stupid, cheap, lazy pieces of shit who want it to die. Fuck you all. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-26 17:22:?? UTC) |
How can it be so fucking dead here? Why are you not posting? | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-26 17:00:?? UTC) |
There is now a "hot polls" section, accessible from the "polls" section. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-26 01:51:?? UTC) |
QUESTIONS END WITH QUESTION MARKS! HOW FUCKING HARD IS THIS TO GET? IT IS EXTREMELY BASIC LANGUAGE KNOWLEDGE! DO YOU WANT TO GET BANNED?! Fucking idiots. Stupid fucking IDIOTS! | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-25 21:55:?? UTC) |
Why are you so fucking rude? Why do you keep wasting my and your own time posting SHIT that obviously hasn't been proof-read even once?! Idiots. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-25 19:44:?? UTC) |
Troll posts will always be deleted. Do not reply to spam/trolling, doing so just creates an even bigger mess. How hard is this to understand?! | ? | 10 months (2009-06-25 14:00:?? UTC) |
I'm baffled every day by how lots of people just don't seem to get through their thick skulls extremely basic English rules, such as beginning sentences with a capital letter. It's fucking insane! The Internet has really made people retards. It's sad. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-25 13:44:?? UTC) |
So many fucking morons, completely ignoring the very basic, simple rules and instructions… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-24 22:30:?? UTC) |
Would you stop typing in fucking lower-case? Begin sentences with an upper-case initial! I hate seeing sloppy posts and they encourage other people to do the same shit unless I delete them… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-24 19:07:?? UTC) |
To the advertiser guy: Although there has been a lot of downtime, with 21,100 impressions and 64 follows, the CTR seems to be at 0.3% for a very famous, known brand (the Coca-Cola test). I reckon it should be higher for an unknown one… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-24 15:35:?? UTC) |
Calling any and all survivors out there… :-( | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-24 08:35:?? UTC) |
What a nightmare. Every time we get some nice "flow" here, something horrible, out of my control, happens. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-23 09:49:?? UTC) |
"Whistleblower mode" can now only be enabled by regulars, as intended originally. Just thought you should know if you wonder where it went in the dashboard. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-22 18:58:?? UTC) |
It appears as if whenever I use "please" in instructions, it is interpreted by some people as: "This is what I would like you to do, but please, by all means, feel free to do the complete opposite!" | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-22 12:25:?? UTC) |
Fixed a serious bug in the "ostrich mode" mechanism. (Amazing how nobody reported it until now…) You have to re-save your list for this to take effect. Sadly, using spaces before and after the phrases no longer works, at least not for now. For this reason, you shouldn't keep your "CP" entry (or other very short phrases) if you have one as it will be "greedy". | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-22 01:44:?? UTC) |
How fucking hard is it to fucking proof-read your fucking posts before you fucking post your fucking shit on this fucking board? I keep deleting post after post, all day, every day, because you dumb fucks can't spend an extra few seconds to, for example, spell "site" correctly (two different posters managed to spell it as "sight" and "cite" in the same fucking topic). Fuck. This project is one big waste of time in a world full of morons. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-21 23:48:?? UTC) |
Sorry, people who use elisa-laajakaista.fi, but I had to ban the entire ISP due to some fucking moron who just keeps coming back and posting shit here from different hostnames of that ISP. Since my abuse reports to ISPs are never, ever responded to, I have stopped wasting my time sending those. Be sure to request whitelisting if you are a genuine user from this ISP. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-21 17:43:?? UTC) |
It's really absurd how many topics are deleted (and never re-posted, fixed) here due to RC. People really are brainwashed morons. Stop typing random words with uppercase initials! | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-21 13:28:?? UTC) |
The "shitlisted" page now links to various pages that the person should read (you are now able to access some pages even when shitlisted): http://88.80.21.12/shitlisted | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-21 01:18:?? UTC) |
Well… the downtime was my own fault this time. For once, it was not an attack or some company fucking with me. However, it should have been resolved within a couple of minutes instead of many hours had I had low-level remote or physical access to the server, which I currently don't (only SSH, which obviously doesn't work if the box is FUBAR). I need to upgrade to different hardware for that… which means you need to start donating! | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-20 13:21:?? UTC) |
The "media" feature now shrinks images that are too large for your screen. Lots of image topics have very large images that look awkward in all but very high-resolution screens. It doesn't actually modify the images, but simply does the scaling client-side. "Click" them to see them in the original size (or whatever your client does with images). | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-19 16:29:?? UTC) |
… and it's completely fucking dead again. | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-19 14:49:?? UTC) |
It's frightening to see how many of you add double quotes around your ignored phrases, making them completely useless… | Sysop | 10 months (2009-06-19 01:14:?? UTC) |
The "ostrich mode" now applies to the "bumps" section as well. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-16 20:54:?? UTC) |
Thank you, second person who donated via snail mail. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-16 17:57:?? UTC) |
Stop making quality topics with RC in the headline. They will be deleted, no matter how many and how good the replies are. How fucking hard is this to understand? | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-13 12:50:?? UTC) |
Things should now be back to normal. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-12 10:42:?? UTC) |
Remember that, during downtime, announcements are made on the AnonTalk Tumblr page, located at http://anontalk.tumblr.com/. | ? | 11 months (2009-06-11 23:02:?? UTC) |
I didn't delete the "Has anybody donated?" topic because it was bad, but because it was impossible to clean up the discussion; it just could not be saved. It had a lot of quality posts in it, though, so sorry about that. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-10 16:24:?? UTC) |
All non-HTTPS AnTs are advised to regenerate a new password due to the (remote) possibility of the last shitty DNS host logging requests the last 48 hours (the cookies would be the security issue). We now have a real DNS host which will not randomly censor AT. HTTPS users are of course not affected and never will be unless you "click away the warnings". | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-10 15:49:?? UTC) |
New section: http://88.80.21.12/the_story_so_far | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-08 02:04:?? UTC) |
Sysop now doesn't count as a "cloaked letter" in topics. (If I start a topic, "Anonymous A" comes after me instead of "Anonymous B", as if I were "Anonymous A", etc.) | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-06 02:55:?? UTC) |
I "love it" how the trolls often claim that they " was gonna donate but now I won't because you banned me". Suuure you were, shitposter. Sure you were… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-05 11:32:?? UTC) |
Why can't some billionaire donate a few millions anonymously to such a good cause as this place? It would solve a lot of problems. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-04 01:04:?? UTC) |
So… many… shitposters. It's really amazing how much COMPLETE FUCKING SHIT you post. Unhelpful, off-topic, not read through, etc… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-03 11:50:?? UTC) |
What could possibly cause somebody to end a question with a period? I don't get it. It's really impossible for me to understand. It cannot be understood by me. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-02 22:22:?? UTC) |
Jesus. The amount of people who ignore the simple instructions is staggering… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-02 01:12:?? UTC) |
The worst thing that could happen happened: First the ISP lost its power somehow due to a major power cut in the region. The system clock reset to year 2001 and they didn't fix this, causing major fuck-ups. I luckily came back to check this after only about 40 minutes, but a lot of damage was done during that time of running with a completely incorrect clock. I have spent hours up until now cleaning everything up and I believe that it's all fixed… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-06-01 02:58:?? UTC) |
Are you fucking kidding me?! How can it be so fucking DEAD here so long after the launch (476 days)? Is this a nightmare? How is this even technically possible? Go spread the word already… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-30 19:18:?? UTC) |
Stop making shitty headlines. If you are looking for X, don't make the headline simply "X", as if you are providing X rather than asking for X… It WILL be deleted, no matter how little activity there is here and no matter how many replies and how good the replies are. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-29 15:58:?? UTC) |
Important: Fixed a bug which made everyone unable to post because of "unread private messages" when in fact they had none. (Related to last bulletin.) | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-29 00:52:?? UTC) |
Finally made private messages not delete themselves upon being opened; instead, they now get marked as read and are deleted after 24 hours. This also solved the problem with quoting PMs in internal conversations, which should prevent a lot of headache and save a lot of time. As always, be sure to tell me if you find any bugs… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-28 23:54:?? UTC) |
What the fuck has happened to AT's traffic? It's almost completely dead again. Sigh… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-28 12:31:?? UTC) |
It's been over three weeks since we got the post box and none of you have donated, despite saying that you would. Why is this? | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-27 23:20:?? UTC) |
Polls can now be shuffled as well (both from the "polls" section and from each poll). | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-27 22:32:?? UTC) |
There are more worthless fucktard trolls than real posters here now. Why do I even bother? And still no donations… Unbelievable. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-27 11:56:?? UTC) |
Got rid of the "Lone" reply links and instead baked them into the #123,456 post number things. Also did the same for topic posts. This means that you can now link to individual posts, stand-alone, without involving the rest of the discussion, by following the tiny "#" links. Sometimes this is useful. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-27 11:00:?? UTC) |
I'm really disappointed at you. There shouldn't be several hours between new topics. Not at this point. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-26 10:42:?? UTC) |
Gee. Thanks for telling me about the horrible, several days old bug I just killed which made it impossible to access the RSS feed, generate an ID card, etc. I had to find this out on my own as always. I wonder how many people saw these errors but didn't report them… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-25 23:26:?? UTC) |
What part of "no feeding the trolls" and "no chan memes" don't you dumb fuckers get? | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-25 14:51:?? UTC) |
Great. The traffic has died completely again. Thanks a lot. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-24 19:48:?? UTC) |
It's very frustrating that none of you seem to lift a finger to spread the word… It's not exactly motivating me to work hard on new features and fixes. And still no donations, despite the promises you made before I got the damn post box… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-23 21:15:?? UTC) |
Please only use "@OP" when it is absolutely necessary to make a distinction (for example, when citing other posts in the same reply). If a reply does not cite/quote another one, then it is (presumably) directed at the OP. No need to keep adding "@OP". It looks stupid. | ? | 11 months (2009-05-23 19:29:?? UTC) |
If your post body is too long, it now warns about this in the preview feature (meaning you don't have to try to publish it to find out). The limit has also been raised from 10,000 to 20,000 characters. The reason for the limitation is huge troll posts, but some genuine posts seem to require more than 10,000 characters… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-23 15:23:?? UTC) |
You really make me sad when I have to delete a high quality post with minor errors in it which could have been prevented had the author just read through it once before publishing. The worst part is that these posts rarely get re-posted, fixed, despite the private message with the dump and instructions… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-23 02:01:?? UTC) |
It really is true: No matter how "idiot-proof" you make your app, users will find ways to mess things up… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-23 00:07:?? UTC) |
You can now spell check your posts while previewing! | ? | 11 months (2009-05-22 15:55:?? UTC) |
You can now watch topics at the same time as replying. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-22 15:08:?? UTC) |
Do you have ANY idea what a fucking HELL you create for me when one poster posts a reply with errors in it and then 20 people refer to it or replies to it? I have to spend tons of time deleting shit just because one of you couldn't be bothered to fucking spell check your shitty post and the rest of you apparently thought it was going to stay for some absurd reason. And then the topic dies. Really sad, annoying and happens constantly. I'm actually afraid of opening topics because of this… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-22 01:01:?? UTC) |
You can now see the number of (unique) posters in a topic in the same "tooltip" as the number of replies and watchers. | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-20 01:36:?? UTC) |
It's no longer possible to vote on polls when you are banned. I deliberately allowed this originally, but every little thing that can be abused is being abused by the fucking trolls… | Sysop | 11 months (2009-05-19 18:18:?? UTC) |
Wow. You just keep on posting shit and wasting my time. And still no donations. Rude fucks. | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-18 19:50:?? UTC) |
Many of you force me to behave in ways I don't want to. Can you blame me, though, when, after the 2654th person submits a poll without punctuation marks in the end of each/some options, despite the clear, bold instruction about exactly this, I give up on trying to reason with the dumb masses and instead start banning and shitlisting them on routine, knowing that they statistically only will mean trouble and huge amounts of wasted time if I manually repeat the instructions to them in private? | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-18 19:36:?? UTC) |
I get the feeling that there is a group of banned trolls who always vote negatively in polls concerning the board and new features… | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-18 17:16:?? UTC) |
What makes me sad: Having to delete topics full of quality replies because the author made a crappy headline. Happens all the time. Unfortunately, they rarely re-post after fixing it, despite being urged to do so… | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-18 00:18:?? UTC) |
Finally added a text showing how long since the "original post" a reply was posted in topics. While this may seem bloated, I have carefully considered this for a long time and finally decided that it is too useful to not include. I also feel that the old "X Y later" text was a bit unclear about whether or not it means the last post (as is the case) or "later" as in "since OP". | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-17 22:56:?? UTC) |
The text "Please end each option with a punctuation mark, such as a period, an exclamation mark or a question mark!" in the "new poll" section seems to be completely invisible to most people who submit a poll. How can anyone not notice and understand it? I am seriously wondering this… | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-16 20:02:?? UTC) |
I realize that I need to clear things up in the FAQ and probably write some sort of "rules" section, even if the people who violate rules hardly ever are the ones who read them… I've been meaning to do this since the beginning, but once I start writing rules, everything disallowed has to be listed or else somebody is going to refer to how there is no rule against this and that specific thing. People like to interpret things in the way that suits them the best… | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-16 17:31:?? UTC) |
I probably should mention that I felt really bad later and mass-removed all shitlisted IP addresses (for the first time in almost a year) and unbanned all the regulars that I could find that had recently been banned. Not that I technically did anything wrong, but still… Yesterday was the worst troll day in a long time. You probably would understand me better if you knew how many people simply ignore the clear, minimal instructions and seem to enjoy wasting my time… :-/ | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-16 17:26:?? UTC) |
Is this Bizarro World, where "don't post chan drama bullshit" means "please feel free to post chan drama bullshit", and where "without Random Capitalization" means "with Random Capitalization"? I swear that you get dumber and dumber for each day… :-( | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-16 00:29:?? UTC) |
What the fuck is wrong with you? I think I have banned half the userbase recently for posting off-topic replies in topics. It never seems to stop. STICK. TO. THE. FUCKING. TOPIC. HOW FUCKING HARD CAN IT BE TO FOLLOW THIS SIMPLE RULE?! Stop drifting away from the point of the topics. How many times does this have to be repeated for you morons to understand it? The headline and the "original post" dictates what a topic is about. Don't like it? Start your own, similar topic instead of hi-jacking others'. | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-15 20:36:?? UTC) |
STOP RUINING EVERY FUCKING TOPIC WITH YOUR OFF-TOPIC BULLSHIT, YOU DUMB PIECES OF SHIT! I'm so fucking sick of cleaning up after you retards. | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-15 13:54:?? UTC) |
I need whoever somehow got a wiseguy's ID and password (assuming his story is true) to contact me ASAP. It is technically possible since he didn't follow my very clear instructions and used the unencrypted interface, but so practically unlikely that I simply need to know how you did it. You are probably reading this. | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-14 18:54:?? UTC) |
Three people were nuked before I could stop the person who took over the idiot wiseguy's ID. Thanks for respecting the security and all. It was probably a traitor, though… I don't believe his story. | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-14 00:31:?? UTC) |
One wiseguy's internal ID must have been compromised. He started posting really strange stuff and doing weird things all of a sudden, from having been a very high quality contributor. Since it's just not practically possible to crack this remotely, somebody must have taken over his computer or something like that. If you are seeing this, I need you to contact me and explain what the hell happened. You need to be much more careful; secure your backups and always drop the ID if you use a public computer… | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-13 20:34:?? UTC) |
If you aren't providing, but rather requesting something, don't make topics with headlines such as "X", but rather "Looking for X", or "Can you help me find X?"… | ? | 12 months (2009-05-13 15:25:?? UTC) |
Bug fixed in "edit ignored phrases": strings are no longer "trimmed" so that you can use " CP " instead of the greedy "CP". | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-13 13:42:?? UTC) |
Don't feed the trolls! Posting in a troll topic is exactly what the troll wants you to do. Use the "report" button instead. | ? | 12 months (2009-05-12 20:38:?? UTC) |
Where did everyone go?! Why are only fucking retards and trolls posting here anymore?! | Sysop | 12 months (2009-05-12 20:22:?? UTC) |
Please keep in mind that, according to the FAQ, exchange of personal information (including email address and IM screen name) is not allowed. | ? | 12 months (2009-05-11 21:07:?? UTC) |
