Hi all,
Just a quick heads up. Not sure exactly when it's going to happen, but we're moving to another verse. Kinda. It's about 85-90% there with lots left to do, but I thought it was far along enough for you to take a looksee.
https://uat.fireflyfans.net
The postings are not current and ANYTHING POSTED THERE WILL GET WIPED after the cutover.
We'll do a proper shakedown after we move.
Best,
Haken

I'm out. Nice knowing y'all.
Hey Google, What is UAT and is it safe?
A "uat" subdomain is generally safe if it belongs to a company you trust, but you should treat it with caution.
"UAT" stands for User Acceptance Testing. Companies use these subdomains (like ) as a staging area to test new features or software updates before releasing them to the general public.
??? When it is safe
• Official testing: If you are an employee, client, or beta tester explicitly invited by the company to test their software.
• Legitimate domain structure: The "uat" must be a true subdomain of a trusted site (e.g., , not ).
?? Risks to watch out for
• Phishing scams: Scammers often look for abandoned or poorly secured UAT sites to host malicious pages. They might also create fake domains containing "uat" to look like a technical testing site.
• Data security bugs: Because these are testing environments, they may not have the same level of security or encryption as the live website. Never enter real financial details, primary passwords, or sensitive personal data on a UAT site unless explicitly instructed by your organization using dummy data.
• Broken features: The site might be unstable, slow, or contain software bugs, as that is the purpose of a testing environment.
That and Haken hasn't answered any question about this AI he's unleashing on everyone who hasn't posted here in 20 years too.
I've been fairly confident he's a glowie for at least the last decade anyhow, and "Haken" isn't even the guy who started this site.

FYI, more than a few have wanted to sign up. I think they're hopeful that the animated series might happen.

I never saw this. I'm betting Jack will be here soon.
And Jack, I think very few here if any at all posted as themselves. I mostly see synonyms. Same goes with our Avatar identifying pictures. And I don't know anybody who has posted something online that didn't know it was there for good. Well, except maybe you.

Haken. I wrote this in the tags to you after we'd had a few volleys last night. When I came back today it looks like anything we were writing last night was gone, so I wanted to make sure you saw it if you missed it, and if you replied, I didn't see it before it was gone...
Appreciate ya. I'm sorry for being a dick to you. Sometimes I let the goons rile me up more than I should get riled, and since you stay out of these things and you don't take part in your own site, it's easy not to think of you as a person. I still have my reasons to doubt that you're not the Haken who started this site, just because I can't imagine why you ever would have all these years if we weren't all being studied by somebody... both what we're saying now and just the overall history of the site. But maybe you really are just a good guy who kept this place up and decided not to shut off the lights until the last person left. I would appreciate it really though if you made a post about everything. I've voiced my concerns about the subdomain, and the hearsay that you're using AI but not really to what purpose. Whoever you are, thanks for keeping the site up all these years. Sorry most of us left here aren't Shiny Happy People.Thanks for giving us all a healthy place to be assholes.
It's a little stilted speech there, because I was trying to make it all fit in a single Tag.

Man...
I forgot about the "Notify me when someone replies to my post" option since it hasn't worked in a decade. Woke up to a mailbox full of spam from Dumb and Dumber this morning.
Just unchecked that. Hopefully that stays unchecked now by default.
