Yeah, the genuinely funny ones. I find negative, jaded, and sarcastic posts not funny anymore. :?

Who has the lack of sense of humour? The nannies? That is well known fact.

No offense taken Reviewer.

Hey Ian, Mrs. D.dog would like to get her hands on your balls sometime. I personally suck, be she knows her way around. She's never handled four fingers, mind you, but you are welcome to show her. Are you in a league or something? I'm a diver, myself. Love to dive.

Let me know.

Arnie, I don't think I have ever insulted anyone. Innuendo, absolutely. But no one has voiced any outrage at my posts. If some don't find my humour funny, they can skip my posts. I think humour is a geographical/cultural thing. Being English, you should know that. BENNY HILL=NOT FUNNY to me, yet millions laugh and love it. In Canada we have a show called "Kids in the Hall" which I find funny as hell, yet unless you are a fan of America's "Saturday Night Live", you would not find it funny in the least.

Personally, I find Innuendo funny, and think maybe someone else might get a rise :oops: out of it, too. I don't swear on the forum, I am relatively P.C. and I don't pick specific fights. To each their own, right?

It would be good if you gents and ladies that are MODS/NANNIES actually contributed to the forum rather than police it. You may find my posts in bad taste, but as a frequent poster and reader of the forum, I feel that my posts are certainly within the realm of what the current users can handle.

If you lads and lassies aren't going to contribute, perhaps you should pass the reigns of good taste to others who are more in touch? I am certain that MODding is not a simple task, and clearly is thankless, but as the forum evolves, so should the executives.

This is not a pissy-pants post, no harm meant, so please don't fire it off to FC. You were constructively critical of me (more than once) and I am doing the same. No ill will.

I agree with you and for one I find your inuendos hilarious as oppose to being vindictive. Surely one cannot please everyone especially here in this forum, Let's live and let live.... 8)

Could not insert new word matches

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1194 Table 'phpbb_search_wordmatch' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) SELECT 230374, word_id, 0 FROM phpbb_search_wordlist WHERE word_text IN ('anyone', 'getting', 'strange', 'message', 'evertime', 'post')

Yes. I tried posting a seperate thread with an image, but couldnt succeed in doing so.
Well, the error message clearly says that the forum is in DEBUG mode. and the table ''phpbb_search_wordmatch' is marked crashed. However, its a poorly structured error handling method, coz it exposes the function names and to say its really poor it even exposes the SQL Table name and query. Whatever happened to Exception handlers and Good Commonsense Programming.
