The cardinal rules of old GBS-FM apply equally here:

1) You WILL stare at your speakers at intervals and wonder what kind of mutants hang around this place.

2) You have just as much power as any other user to determine what music gets played, so add what you like and upload what we don't have and enjoy inflicting your music on others.

3) SEARCH THE gently caress FIRST! before uploading.

4) Make sure your poo poo is PROPERLY TAGGED.

If you're unsure about whether or not your version of a dong is counted as a dupe, just ask anyone in the channel, the response is usually "as long as you don't upload 5 billion live versions of the same dong" you should be fine.

Ah yes, the peachstapler rule.

I can't get any response out of irc.buttes.org today, mIRC cycled through all 99 retries and got nothing.

I'm locked out! :( :(

IRC ≠ FTP.

As I stated before, one of the IRC servers on the network is down. As an Oper on the network hub, I get this fun pair of messages every 2 minutes in my server tab:

[15:26:43] * *** Notice -- Connection to dickshield.irc[IP redacted] activated.

You seriously like to have that on your 2nd monitor rather than external views or instrument panels :psyduck:

X-plane doesn't handle a second monitor all that well, this is the best it will do:



and on some planes that is annoying as hell. especially when the upper monitor is 7 feet away (really a 40" TV) and the lower one 2 feet away.

Tokens allow you to add extra dongs to the playlist on top of the one allowed, and I just added them. (They're from the old station.) Be nice and do reports and things and mods will give them to you; beg for them and we'll devise horrible punishments for you.

[edit] Can we turn on the IRC wordfilter for a few hours? Do we still have it?

Short answer: No.

Only reason that could be implemented at the time was because kalleboo hosted one of the servers on the network. That doesn't happen now and we have nominally 3 servers but right now we are limping along on 2: kiri.hub, katrina.irc and dickshield.irc (dickshield is still down for the time being). As far as I know Winkie pays for all 3.

But yes, the Star One album is particularly awesome.

Actully, it was hearing stuff right after i joined the first version in 20050 that got me hooked

GBS-FM operates a tagging policy so strict that it would shame most countries' programmes for releasing sex offenders back into public life. And by a strange coincidence, most GBS-FM mods are currently participating in such schemes.
