i'm talking generally, not personally..................lol......... if we can't change the world or change lives i'm happy to make people smile......

lol.........of course there's 'other' things which are good too.........lol..

but y'know sometimes making other people really happy is as good as, if not better than sex................lol..........
Of course the ideal situation combines everything..............lol.......

I guess that's why i sung 'God Save the Queen' when i lost my virginity........lol..........we were laughing so much we could hardly continue............lol........

i wonder what you'd sing if you were 'on the job' with Jim??........lol

I will go take my time out in the corner. Although it's not really punishment because I have the laptop.

Yep. He told me the same thing. It was causing the board to go down.

Funny my birthday has been causing me to malfunction and go down too....do you think Tommy could delete a few of mine.

Ok, I put the birthday mod back online with a little modification.

The original way it was invoked, required a lot of system ressources, that's why we had to remove it. Everytime a user accessed the main page, there was a huge database query. Now the output is generated once a day in the morning and stored in a file, which will then be included the whole day long. The only drawback are, that new users don't appear in the list, when they register on their birthday and that the timezone the birthdays are updated is (currently) CET. But the update happens at 7 am CET.

ya awsome......and if it helps....there is a Birthday thread in the members section u can make as a sticky so people will can know if the list on the main page ever gets taken off.

@KC8t80: Which posting are you talking about?

Well, the birthday list won't be taken off the main page again. It'll stay there. I'll just have to remember it, when installing an update of the board software. So drop me a line, in case I miss it and it's gone.
