Welcome back. You may be redirected to poetrypeep for a couple of days, and you'll have to log back in, but welcome back. No need to show you around - it looks exactly like it did.

dodgy did most of the work.
I just uploaded the sql and provided a small amount of light relief.

I never thought I'd say it, but if you plan things out beforehand they go really smoothly.

What the hell is that weird zombie thing in the corner? And who is "poetry peep"? I hate those peep things - they're so nasty! What's going on? Who are you people?! EVERYTHING'S DIFFERENT!!!

eep.

And if Firefox stores your password for metachat, it won't automatically produce that password for poetrypeep.

And if you want to post, you'll have to allow poetrypeep javascript.

Oh, and why's the background green, and the bunny a monkey now?

Oh that was stressful.

*looks around*

smells different.

Vienna Sausage killed metachat. I was in the middle of a post about Vienna Sausage, and when I hit preview, the world went dark. That must be it.

(thank you powers that be for restoring order)

Back soon. If it breaks, email me...

Thanks for the link/clarification, taz... I went to see my mom yesterday and wasn't around, alas...

Glad to see it wasn't the Vienna Sausage.

Well done guys for a seamless transition. I went off to watch 'Dragon's Den' and when I came back it was all done.

*clap clap clap clap clap clap clap*

I don't like 'em.

Oh, I like what you've done with this place! It seems so..so..like... home.

Now what's this, all of a sudden my remember-passwords function doesn't work anymore and I have to delve into the dark recesses of mind mind to actually retype my password? Shame!

Apart from that, I can't deny it does realy look exactly like it did before, the disturbing bunny-hallucination at the left of the screen is still there and everything.

In all seriousness though, if you need any help dodge, feel free to let me know, I'd like to think I know my way around a computational device. If that isn't necessary, even better, all I can do is wish you a speedy recovery, and hope to see you again soon.
