I just thought you people were getting lonely and wanted to offer use to my Lithuanian VPN Brazzers account. Only can be used between 4:13am-7:42am. I take Bitcoin and water-whipped crack.
Ha! I saw this!
Hi, can one of the admins or mods kindly delete my account? I’d do it myself, but there doesn’t appear to be an option to do that in the user control panel. Thanks in advance.
My avatar isn’t showing on any of my posts, but shows when I look at my profile. Is there something I need to change?
Came here for fix the avatar
Hey my posts aren’t…posting.
It’s because you’re not setup to post. Shoot me an email at [email protected] and we’ll talk about it.
DAD!!!!!!!!!!! (Who I’m probably older than, but whatever). I did a thing! How do I send it or publish it?
Hey, so I sent a note to the email address but figured I’d post this here too, would love to get involved in contributing to the site:
My friends and I do a weekly NFL podcast, the Free Ballin’ Football Podcast, that covers all things NFL. We do recaps, previews, fantasy football and betting advice, survivor pool advice and dish on all things NFL. We try to have fun and make it entertaining while also giving some analysis.
We would love to contribute to the site and have our podcast featured as an entry each week. Is this something you’d be interested in? We’re already up on iTunes and Stitcher.
Yo why aren’t my comments posting?–EP
I wrote a Premiership preview in 2 parts. In the same genre of the Euro posts that Balls posted for me. Where can I send them?
You can post them yourself if you’d like. Is the email you use for login your real one?
yes
Not a suggestion, but it’s saying I don’t have permission to upload images from my laptop on my post.
I don’t know if it’s just me (probably), but it suddenly loading sssssllllllllllooooooowwwwwwww, and images are appearing as broken links. This just started maybe five minutes ago.
try refreshing the page.
That’s when it happens.
OK, that’s weird. I’ve been trying to replicate it with no success. What browser are you on?
Chrome. It seems to have stabilized, but everything that was still broked earlier remains so.
I don’t know what’s happening, other than further proof WordPress wants me dead. My avatar is now gone, and after trying three separate times to replace it, still is just a broken image. No idea, other than the server just doesn’t want me around.
In fact, Moose, Sill, and BrettFavreColonoscopy’s avis are all MIA, too.
WHAT DID WE DO TO EARN YOUR WRATH (besides everything)?!!?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm….I see all of your avatars – could have just been an image issue. Try logging out and logging back in and see if it’s still borked.
Love the new format, don’t miss that “other” place at all. I’d like to contribute to the site if possible, this is one of the few places that shares my unconventional sense of humor.
Appreciate the consideration.
Sure thing! I’ll add you to the Google group – introduce yourself and I’ll up your permissions. I’ll send you an email with how to post/use the calendar.
Sounds great….thanks!
I logged into Google Groups, couldn’t find DFO. Am I a moron and/or just missing something?
Thanks again.
It’s a private group – I sent you an invite.
Howdy.
If one creates some #content, how does one get it out of the pending state so it can be scheduled for release?
I completed something today and I don’t have the ability to publish it.
Hey DFO can you make it so yahoo(!) sports stops having not one but TWO autoplaying (but at least muted) videos on their front page? Thanks and I’ll hang up to hear my answer on the air.
I contacted Yahoo, and they let me know that I was an idiot, and that they hated me. It was nice to finally hear the truth.
It only made them angrier apparently; now they’ve moved the unmute button to ALMOST entirely cover the pause button, so if I try to save my poor cpu from rendering two videos in the background I’m more likely to give them a voice and hear something stupid from dan wetzel about the nba.
Yo, what’s an n-word have to do to get DFO to post comments using my spiffy new avatar, instead of the Goodell football-to-the-groin one?
Scratch that. I’m a dumbass. Problem solved.
I’m sorry man, I went to bed early and didn’t see this until today. What was the issue so I can help other people troubleshoot in the future?
I’m thinking it might be nice to see more of the comments below while I’m writing a comment. Right now, the comment box seems kind of huge–can we resize it? Maybe down to about three or four lines visible or so? Right now it’s at 8 as far as I can tell. We could tighten the spacing on the Comments Refresh/+1 notification lines. And would it be possible to move the notification options up a little? Also, are those working still? I feel like they’re not working, so perhaps we could just nix them.
Just my 2 cents. Which means my share is down to $11.98 at best now.
Jeez, ask for the moon! No, I’ll look at that this week.
Sometimes comments get posted as replies to the last comment I replied to, even after refreshing the page. Possible positive correlation with posting an image in my most recent comment. Purple monkey dishwasher.
Yeah. I am just fucking hiding here. I am up for work if you need it.
Hey man, did you get my email?
So I have til like 9 pm to hide. He called my mom to make me worry about doing anything else. Feel free to ignore this. If you do punch him the the face. I won’t compain
Ehh, Fuck I really am on board, 2 dick parents this morning
I really am bored with helping and will you fix your IT problem. I am just hiding to GOD DAMN IT YOU ASSHOLE. YOU ALREADY HAVE ANGER PROBLEMS
Here’s a fucking suggestion string:
-Stand up
-Go to you refrigerator
-Get your favorite beverage
-Go back to your computer
-Stand in front of monitor
-Take non-mouse hand and raise it above your head
-THEN SLAP YOURSELF ON ASS HAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!
Great job mate. Site looks great and runs great. Seriously; this is better than a shitload of “professionally” run full time paid sites including one in particular THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED.
Thank you so much! It makes it worth it when I hear back from you guys, and you’ve always been one of my favorites commentists. You made my day, Moose.
Question; how hard, exactly, did you slap your ass? It can be awkward for us not-so-flexible people to get a good slap.
I had my wife do it for me. I didn’t want to dislocate my shoulder AGAIN. She brought me the beer too.

That whole deal works for a lot of folks.
Spookily accurate.
The calendar at the bottom left of the page has the title “Upcoming Dick Jokes” yet is actually a link to all past dick jokes. Maybe need a title change there.
I changed it to a message of peace and hope instead.
Love the new layout! Very nice and streamlined and shit (you can use that on your marketing pamphlets). The only thing that seems odd is the embiggining of the avatar of the first user to like a post. On mobile it is /begin Al Michaels voice/ YUUUUUGE /end Al Michaels voice/. Anyway, nice work, again, and thanks for owning this like a champ.
Thanks man! I’ll look into it – that definitely sounds like a bug, not a feature.
I liked this post so you can see if it is big.
I’s YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE
I have no idea why though. This is weird.
Either my goddamn eyes are getting even older, or the color of the font on this site is too faint. Either way, I’m pretty sure an aneurysm is on its way.
And thanks for all of the work you do – DFO for Life, yo
Yeah I’ll make it darker. It seems lighter now than it did Saturday.
You may have to refresh your page (F5) but I fixed those weak-ass fonts.
I am sorry if it was already said, can you move the comment box to the top of the comments.
Huh. It used to be there. I put it back. Thanks for the heads up!
It took 10 min, I mean I know since it only took moving a few lines of code up. Still
::slaps on the ass::
::hard::
I needed something to do while Madden downloaded updates!
I will challenge you when I have money to get whatever system you are on. Back to Civ5… no that is a bad choice, each move is at 40 min now. Porn? Maybe just hang around?
Timestamps on comments seem to be off by an hour; they are an hour early for me. If this is a subtle attack on the entrenched fascism of daylight savings time, then I withdraw my comment.
The site is on Central time, because that’s where I am and it annoys everyone else that a flyover hick such as myself gets to set it.
Crap, this has revealed that I’m somewhere in the eastern timezone. Time to disappear and create a new internet identity. I’m definitely NOT going to be blordinaryfagicmox2 . So dont even look for that name.
Ok, here’s a couple of relatively minor things that don’t absolutely have to be fixed, but if you know how to fix them then that would be just grand. If fixing them requires going to any trouble, then just ignore me. It works for my SO.
1) The site seems to log me out every few days in spite of the fact that I always click “remember me.” Any idea why? Do I need to clear my cookies or something?
2) When I try to embed a Youtube video, it doesn’t work. I’m copying and pasting the “embed” text that Youtube gives me. Am I even allowed to post photos or video? I would assume so, but I thought it was worth asking. Here, I’ll post the embed text for this video, and you’ll see that it doesn’t show up.
Thanks,
BBR
So, I thought that I had replied to this, but I may have hallucinated that. Anyhoo:
1) It is indeed a cookies/cache problem with WordPress. I get the same thing occasionally.
m) You’re not actually allowed to put YouTube videos in the comments, I didn’t add that in because it slows the comments down. Images load if the link ends with the file – ending in jpg, png or gif.
One thing I noticed is that even though I’ll set images/stuff to be center justified, they end up left justified. And there is no option for Raylan’s Justified. That last part may be impossible to add.
Hey, it looks like it’s fixed now!
WordPress updates don’t update jquery. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle.
SNOW JOB!

i made this: http://i.imgur.com/P1kqN1o.jpg
I feel like it needs to go somewhere because it is awesome.
Kan i be a contributor? Due to my demanding 20 hr a week job i promise not to post much. And if I post something at least one other humanoid will have laughed at it.
I HAVE MADE IT SO!

I would be incredibly honored if I could write the a Patriots preview. I know there was one at KSK already but I figured one from an actual pats fan might be nice to have….
Chazz, I’m sorry, I just saw this. We did our Pats preview Aug 3 https://www.doorfliesopen.com/wp/index.php/2015/08/03/preview-parade-new-england-patriots/?WPACRandom=1440176605858 but next year, you’re in.
May I also be granted author status? I promise To use my powers wisely and to post mostly original content. Thank you and god bless.
Any chance of a way for the kommenters to send PMs to each other? Sometimes I’m actually non-narcissistic enough to understand that I have stuff to say that the entire group probably isn’t interested in, but one or two people may be.
Also, could I please have author status? My posts will be rare, but I have one in mind that I’d like to put up and invite kommenter discussion.
Thank you so fucking much for everything that you’ve done here.
Congratulations to you, Big Black Richard, whatever you are on the outside doesn’t matter – here you are now a Contributor.
DTZM,
I don’t know much, really, anything about the technical aspects of webpages and the like. I know you kut down on the posts displayed on each page to try to speed the site up. It did dramatically (great job), but I’m thinking if you make a text only homepage, many of us would be happy to have that as our bookmark. If that is feasible, I would just have the article’s title, the author’s name, the date, and if possible with WP, the number of komments made.
I think that there would be fewer klicks from the Kommentariat on articles we’ve already read. Plus, fewer graphics to load in general.
Again, I’m just a goddamned monkey throwing shit against the walll.
PS. Great job by you and all the admins and authors rescuing us from the collective that I dare not speak it’s name.
That’s a good idea-I’ve been thinking about going to a different theme. There’s a couple of good ones that could help speed-wise. I think I’ll look seriously at it once I have comments locked down. That’s still not where I want it to be.
Maybe a button that brings up a random older post?
I can probably come up with that.
So has there been nothing new posted in 4 days, or is my POS computer messing up?
You might try emptying your cache and refreshing. Sounded like that worked for someone else earlier today.
That did it! Thank you, sir.
If you’re ever looking for Kontributers give me a shout, I have some ideas and would love to have a go at this ‘blogging’ fad…
It’s kind of a nice free for all, sort of like a tremendous experiment in democracy. You will probably be able to figure things out with how to post pretty intuitively. Feel free to try a post out. Kontent is kontent. It is a good idea to try to sort of limit our daily posts (in my opinion) to say less than 6 a day, and try to be polite to other posts that have come before you. You have been granted Author status and can post something if you would like! Worst comes to worst: we can try to excommunicate you like Uproxx banned half of KSK! And if it’s NSFW be a hero and shout that out in the title.
Have fun!
not a suggestion, just a comment. The site is 100% better every day. So glad I found you guys after KSK imploded. Thanks
are we bringing back the KSKharacters?
Nah, I think we are going to try to do things differently. If you ever want to write a column, let me know.
So, would starting a post in the ‘Chat’ format be a feasible format for a rivebrog facsimile?
Hmmmmmmmmm let’s give it a shot!
