Troubling, but not unforeseen

Post by PSUFAN »

orcinus was surfing some self-help spiritual medicine message boards, as is his wont. He clicked on a cialis ad, and after a few disgustingly lurid gigaflops, his Mac started smoking, and suddenly he saw this:

He remembered this from back when this used to go wrong on Macs. He kept cool...sat there and coughed for only 2 weeks...and then unplugged the machine.

When he nutted up and plugged it back in, everything seemed fine - except when he logged in here. It appears that he had PM'ed several love missives to Petrus, Eastern Namibian University Class of '14...and his admin rights had been completely wiped out.

Long story short - the PMs never were delivered, I was able to delete those en route. His admin rights were not secured.

I was following along via the admin panel, so I don't even know if he has noticed this. Has anyone seen him? Should I just log in with his privs and see what the problem is?

He might just be laboring over some really sweet cross stitch for PrimeX, or mapping out a diet roadmap for Paul. He's always been there for those guys. I don't want to mess with the guy, but if you see him, let him know we're efforting towards his recovery.

Gawdspeed, orcinus.

By all means, steal your electronics - get that shit free. BUY AMERICAN, though, he would have wanted it that way. When you can find an American product, snap it up.

I knew something bad would come of unbanning everyone. I see the grim, scabby visage of lk_pk behind this.
