fuck! my kid is old enough to go to school. well, head start preschool, but still... i get 20 hours of my life back a week. i can help around here more and finish my ^%$@!#% web store. i can spend more time in my brick and mortar shop. holy f-n F! things are really falling into place. not to mention...

imho, moderation would be challenging as different people have vastly different ideas of commerece. what if one was: selling a car that might be good for some welder to create an incredible art car from? make fuzzy pants? need a burner-friendly roommate? got a burner friendly job opportunity? got a ...

*pointing to some big art deep in the playa* see that? starfuckers is to the left of that by about 2 football fields. you'll find it.

Fae for what it's worth, the universe doesn't make mistakes. and for what it's worth, I woudl nto go through my twenties again. agreed on both counts. i'm loving my 40s and though the universe has handed me some strange and sometimes shitty options on my way through, i understand now it was all for...

Emily sorry you got sucked into this. I think a PM would have helped. i'm not taking this personally. AntiM's been keeping the peace around here for a long time (grateful!) and she asked for help. so i did what i could... because i remember the spambots. it's no fun deleting a bazillion posts... ev...

i just found out a ~week ago i'm going to the burn for the first time in 5 years. a friend is gifting us the trip. others are offering gear, childcare, work coverage and other essential stuff. omg. i so can not wait to get to the desert. since friday we've set the tents up in the yard, found camelpa...

you bumped it 75 times in 2 hours. coulda been a spambot. who are we to know?

AntiM wrote:Thanks, Em, I appreciate the backup.

heh. i ain't done nothin' around here lately compared to you m'lady. thank YOU.

well? i'm waiting. AntiM asked me to lock your IP after you submitted over 75 empty posts, (well, ok, they said {'''}) to the bar this afternoon. we spent an hour cleaning up after that. i had a jack and coke, went outside, and you signed on from another computer. if you don't have anything to say,...

you guys crack me up...

The rideshare board is separate from the eplaya. You should contact webmaster@burningman.com with this request.

i think a lot of them are using proxies.

yeah, i tried a couple of resyncs quite a while ago when the problem first came up without any change. i think the corruption occurs when we remove a post that is at the beginning or end of a page-count.

sorry, i was away on business/visiting family for a couple of days. here's what i understand. i'm not in regular communication with sean over this, (and i assume he can't really talk about it much) as we hardly get to see each other in real life now that i live on the other side of our state. the ci...

i feel like i should say a little something here... i became the eplaya admin so i could offer something back to the burning man community i had fallen in love with. i have been a participant on the eplaya since it was green and black... i found it an immense resource for me before my first burn and...

i agree the press conference was handled with an attitude that is likely to bite them in the butt. i'm not sure how i would handle media continuing to fire questions at me when i had already told them my lawyers had advised me not to comment on the case. i might be glib, too. not sure. i think the w...

thanks you guys. Sean's a really great guy and an amazing artist. the city of Boston went WAY too far with this and I'm pissed at TBS for not insisting their pardon be part of the deal.

Sean Stevens is a longtime member of the Boston Burner community. He was at my wedding on the playa in '05 and is a friend of mine. He's tangled up in a mess created by Turner Broadcasting System. Turner and the city of Boston have settled, but they're leaving Sean and Peter to flap in the wind. Rea...

just because you want him to go doesn't mean he has to. if it's important enough to argue about, you can wait it out.

really SED, take it to thunderdome. thanks.

Actually, SB isn't a moderator any more. He's IS someone who cares enough about the eplaya to try to make his transition away from moderation smooth though. I appreciate all he's done around here.

I would recommend you guys work this out in Thunderdome if there's more to say.

Hey SED, Thanks for writing. I wish I had better answers for you, but here are a few things that I know of that are currently standing in the way of progress. I don't know any more details than this, so I hope you will feel like you are informed. SB has already provided most of this information else...
