Maybe i'm just stupid, but are there two different log ins? We've got this one, and on the homepage, there's another log-in.

1. Why?

2. Could you explain how to get the other account?

(I just don't want to keep entering information for comments on the homepage)

Thanks Guys, Great Information on the site.

Ey Chris,

There's a lot of technical difficulties in integrating logins and I haven't had really time to finalize that. Intention is to re-use the forum logins for both Wiki and Frontpage, but at the moment you can only register on forum. The Frontpage and Wiki logins are for editors only, and it's impossible to register for them.

I have code available for integrating forum logins with Wiki which I hope to have up and running before end of the month, and then I'm going to do the hacking required to allow forum logins to be used through the whole site.

Hope this answers your question

Frontpage is supposed to remember your information in a cookie btw, so if all's well you needn't enter information every time (name and email boxes should come prefilled). If this is buggy I'll have a look into that asap

Chris · February 24th, 2006, 13:08

Thanks for explaining. The cookies are working.

BTW; is that avatar from the band Bayside? If so; good taste

Chris · February 25th, 2006, 04:03

It is. I love them.

Nino · February 25th, 2006, 13:13

A friend of mine too, heard one of their records a couple of times in his car, was really into it but havent got around to buy/dl their stuff yet. Too bad they had that accident

Chris · February 25th, 2006, 23:56

I know man, it sucks really bad.

I saw them in concert about 2 weeks ago, and they completely rocked. Bayside recorded = fantastic. But Bayside live = unmatchable.

Nino · February 26th, 2006, 15:36

They started playing after the accident again? Ok cool, maybe I didnt get into them too late.

They're currently playing with two fill-ins, but the third member (Nick) should be back on the road soon. I'm not sure if they've found a permanent drummer or not.

Gaz-DanaWalker · March 4th, 2008, 12:48

I love the Bay City Rollers too!!!

Chris · March 4th, 2008, 14:47

wrong.

Nayse-BTC · March 4th, 2008, 16:07

ive been to and worked alot of gigs in my time, you always get two types ( in rock gigs that is.) theres gigs where the musicians are fantastic and all the guys (sometimes girls) in the audience shuffle to the front to gawp at the skills put down on stage, a little moshin, maybe some devil horns, but mostly just a bunch of guys staring at the hands of whichever musician they find most interesting.
then theres the other gigs, the ones where all the girls go to the front and stare at the lead singer, chanting the words to every song like some comatose cult members- the guys are either there for the poon or theyre really lame.
bayside was the latter, but at least i got paid..
bay city rollers, on the other hand, are a proper band that youll actually remember the next day.

Chris · March 5th, 2008, 01:59

So wait, if a girl likes the same music as I do it's a lame band? I'm not sure how old you are, but I've risen above (for the most part) my jaded look upon music and focused more on what I enjoy. I used to get so caught up in what/why everyone liked some band or whatever. I came to realize no one gives a shit what I think and that I should just continue on with what feeds my soul musically.

Lyrics, and meaning behind what's being said. Not just how loud someone can scream or yell or whatever you want to call it.

no, if youre stood next to a bunch of girls fixated on the lead singer, singing word for word then your lame. i doubt you do that, but thats what i saw when i worked for them. lots of emo lookin kids swayin abit staring at the singer, it wasnt a fun gig. i didnt say anything about loudness, or lyrics for that matter- but the whole thing was very forgettable. i thought you were a bit harsh correcting gaz so i was merely pointing out that bay city rollers are better. look at those deformed mullet wielding wearers of brace, bayside cant compete with that.
unfortunately i cant 'rise above my jaded outlook on music' because i work for bands and tours alot. so its gotta be a fuckin fantastic band or i fall asleep.

Gaz-DanaWalker · March 5th, 2008, 11:49

NAYSE-BTC are you promoter or something?
Where you based?

Nayse-BTC · March 5th, 2008, 20:44

UKJAY · March 5th, 2008, 20:57
