Apositive

The forum software has now been updated, and I believe I've fixed the registration issue people were having. Please post below if you encounter any issues while using the site.

You now have the option of left or right side.

Have you sent out a forum-wide email notification to let people know it's all safe?

You're welcome. I was the one who originally chose that portal software for the site, so I felt somewhat responsible when it turned out to no longer be an actively supported project. At least now we should be able to keep the site secure and up-to-date, for as long as phpBB is actively maintained, a...

I would seriously like to change the articles on the Portal page but (can you believe this?) I can't figure out how to do it! KAGU, I'm not sure if you're referring to the blog posts on the home page or not, but you should know that they are pulled directly from new topics created in the Blog Post ...

Okay, I've transferred ownership of the hosting account and domain name to a couple of interested friends, and I'll be acting as technical support to them if they need me. I'll let them introduce themselves in due course.

Shockwave - I've had interest from another party about taking over, so please don't set anything up yet. I'll keep you posted...

That sounds good. This site really needs a team of committed folk in order to thrive. So I guess it's up to Shockwave to decide where he'd like to have the site hosted. Once he has an account somewhere then we can talk to the host's support people about how much help they can offer us for the transf...

Okay, so it seems to be pretty straightforward to transfer the domain into someone else's name, but how we do it depends on whether the new owner wants to keep the site registered with Godaddy or move it to a different registrar. When I moved another site from Godaddy to Hostgator this year, they we...

I've sent an e-mail into to Godaddy's customer service to find out what we'd need to do.

The amount of time I spend maintaining the site is pretty insignificant. If you don't have any plans to redesign the site then you probably won't need much in the way of web skills, and phpbb has a thriving support community. The main requirement, I guess, is a willingness to keep the site going in ...

Well, basically someone would need to set up a hosting account in their name. Hosting for the site currently costs me just under $100 a year. We'd also need to transfer the domain registration into their name. That shouldn't cost much more than $10 a year. I'm not sure how we go about this process, ...

On December 10th the hosting and domain registration for Apositive will expire, and the site will cease to exist. As you've probably noticed, I've been pretty much inactive over the past year. I have little interest in maintaining or developing the site any more, and I do not intend to continue as t...

Okay, my wife will be e-mailing you shortly!

By the way, Marcella... what do you mean by 'professional'? I'm not sure what sort of work that term encompasses. Would a secretary fall in to that category?

The triangle symbol was created as a very simple model of sexual orientation and attraction. I'm pretty sure it's all explained on AVEN somewhere... *looks* Okay, well... it used to be explained on AVEN but they've switched everything around now, so I can't find it. Basically, sexual orientation is ...

I'm moving this to the Community & Media forum.

Any takers?

Would you be willing to speak to someone who isn't British, Marcella?

I was once accused in an interview of 'cheating' on a personality test. So, what... I don't have a personality?

A fish-slice, for sure.

Welcome, agirlfromwales. I have to say that your story sounds similar to my own in a lot of ways, though I'm sure you'll find it heartening to know that I am now married to a like-minded individual who I met through the asexual community, so all hope for you is not lost, I can assure you! Do tell us...

Welcome, Isaac.

Welcome to our little site, Mark.

Dance Clubs really aren't my kind of scene, either. Too many people, too much noise. I like my personal space and like to be able to hear what the people I'm with are saying.

I believe it was created by EmmaRainbow. I was struggling to figure out how they'd managed to organize those questions, too, until I saw the end.

Hey Yam! I used to be Liverlicker on AVEN. Welcome to the site!

Whereabouts in NC are you?

Thought it might be an idea to have a thread where we can post news and sightings of real-life asexual clubs and groups, like this one:

Asexual Club at Smith College - Northampton, MA

I wasn't sure where to put this, so I figured it could have its own thread. It's pretty awesome.

A mockumentary! Now that could be awesome!

I don't actually give a shit about him. It was just something to post about.
