Site news, logging in and commenting

Hey guys, I had something running on the site called Single Sign On, which allowed us to be logged into the site and then automatically logged into DISQUS.. but while I was making updates to the site and clearing the cache, it would make it so that some people could comment as me! Whoops!

As it turns out, my site is highly cached, and it can’t really handle cookies properly, so I am implementing something that will alleviate this problem.

When you want to make comments from now on, if you are not logged into DISQUS already, just go to the comment area, type in a comment, then click the “Post as …” button:

A window will pop up where you can log into DISQUS and the comment will post.  You can log in with your current DISQUS login if you have logged into DISQUS before or one of the other means.

If you haven’t logged into DISQUS before, but have an account on HotForWords, then create an account on DISQUS using the same email address you used on HotForWords, and it will allow you to merge the account with your previous comments on HotForWords.

If you don’t remember what email address you used on HotForWords, you can get to your profile by logging into here.

Sorry about all of these changes.  I have experienced problems for the past month or so, and the best way for me to alleviate them is to put this system into place.

Please be patient while I continue to work on the site.  If you have any issues, let me know here.

Thanks!

Marina

    And here is the site or Metal Group that seems to have been taken away, I know that probably doesn’t me much, or if anything to most of you, But I worked and slaved my guts out to bring this art and entertainment, which it always was and will be! And was never meant for anything other than that, I acted out a Cos-playing, on Horror, and extreme Metal, and different styles, and other things I bring to make the atmosphere and believability, to as be as close to reality as possible, Is it not the work of an artist/creator, to try his best and keep pushing the limits, and reaching new heights, and keep reaching and stretching the limits to any and every heights possible, or even deemed impossible!, and go as far as one can in expressing oneself, and for the sake of the art. I can’t and willn’t allow this total raping of justice and my freedom and rights, you can’t condemn some, and praise, or allow others to keep going, and a lot of their stuff is the same, and they do go off track, but it adds to the entertainment, You pull out what you feel is need, and called for to make the art/expression, and the entertainment, to be the best it can be, and be as real, and imitate life, and create a Horror show theme to make the dream or unbeileavable, to make the illusion seem as real as I could. I didn’t do one damn thing wrong, or should be punishing, or even allow to take that away from me! How would you feel, or anyone else get treated, and acted upon in such a wrong, and totally across the line of the law, and justice, Our freedom of speech, and of expression, and other freedom and rights that protect “We The People” . I have done nothing wrong, and was completely well within my rights to do and post and act the way I did, and will keep doing the same if not here or soon, then alone, or some other way, I came to find this place a home away from home, Where I could. speak, say,act, create, Express myself, through any of the arts I seen fit. There is either no one hear, or if they are don’t seem to want to even try and talk to me, and communicate, and make themselves know, instead of just waiting for certain people to show up before they come forth, or hide in their forum;s or groups, and leave me for dead! This type of treatment, after all that I have said and done for all of you! What a way to pay back a friend, or show your giving side, and caring side, showing that your there and care. I Have Spoken, So it Shall Be Written, So Shall Be Done!

        There’s no censorship here Neo. Marina had to turn the switch off for the group forums and private messaging because her sys admin told her that these things were making her site crash. The rock-metal group is part of the group forums along with the private messaging:
        http://www.hotforwords.com/2011/03/05/website-going-through-tests-right-now/
        I believe it just happens to be taking some time but I’m pretty sure she’s working on it among other stuff she has to deal with here. She’s telling us to be patient and hopefully things will come together. Remember, keep your fingers crossed dude. The groups and PMs should return soon. ;)

I been trying all afternoon and night, now eating it’s way into the early morning, and I hardly did or got anything done, I would never be able to fit in or be accept into your metal group, no one understood, or cared for what I like, just a freak without a cause!

It wouldn’t be fair to you or them, I would just stick out like a big and ugly thumb to most!

                  Well, Well, Well, Look What The Cat Dragged In, LOL. I have always loved and respected Queen in all their awesomeness! Rush was OK, with a little bit of kick and edge. Very cool and brilliant quote, does it seem to fit, or be me at all, if so good call, good show! I always thought, what we had make with nikolos ot however you spell his name for some reason, I always thought it was a forum, and here it turn, and just recently became aware or notice this! I thought that people needed to be asked or invited to partake , of owns group, or forum, what ever they go by. I’m not posting as guest, and I’m not trying to compete, or copy, or steal, or repeat anything, if possible, but some bands and artist’s I can never get enough off, music, and lyric wise, or one or the other, or a combo of both, Mostly as long it is loud, heavy, and brings out the metal gods and beasts to their feet, hard heavy and extreme, mix with horror, you got Neo Extreme Metal, but I can mix it up, and change at times, but I mostly stay true to form and in character, expressing and creating, an all in one strike, and to stay good and true to at least some or all of these type elements, that most don’t seem to care, like, or want any part off most of the time. My tastes and likes, just don’t seem to be very well liked, understood, or received, or something missing, or just not quit right! All well thank for your time, reply, always being their, and for being one of my most loved and best friend ever! Peace! To Thine Own Self Be True!

                    Now how the heck did that happen, I was posting /replying directly to you, and when I hit send, for just a very tad bit of time it was here, vanished and winded up as is what is at least for the moment the top of the page. This is what really happen, for real no foolin’, now is there a way I can try and move it, or something to try and get it back down here where I posted it, and it belongs! If your here and near, around, and can be found! Later!

                    I think that quote can apply to everyone in some sort of way.;)

                    Why are you so sensitive on what everyone thinks about your postings? As long as you like it and get some sort of gratification from it that’s all that should really matter and you’re not going to satisfy EVERYBODY’s tastes. And as far as copying or stealing it would be insane to go back and check all the lessons and forum postings to see if someone else posted something you want to put down. Who cares what others think Neo…well, I should say most of the time. Sometimes their are certain situations where one should care.

                    -Peace Out

Peace! And what happened to discussion about Maiden “Up The Irons” They rule all that is metal! And Oh yes the topic of Venom, I loved that version by Kataklysm I have been partial to them for awhile now. I’m not sure if I spelled their name right or not, but as long as you know what I mean!

        Truly, are you feeling OK? Why would you think that you are being punished? You should carefully consider what VenomRock has discussed (see her reply below). No person (or group of people) on this site was targeted when the Metal Group was suspended. You should realize that the Metal group was not the only group on this site that got pulled… they were ALL pulled. So this cannot be an attack on you. The groups were disabled, not deleted. The reason was made clear, and Marina was open and apologetic for the need. You should know this, since you posted a dozen or more comments on the article that discusses this very topic. I hope you would agree that having the site working (temporarily without the groups) is more desirable than having no site at all? Be patient. In the meantime, there is a FORUM for Metal that you can enjoy. It was started 5 months ago by VR. There’s no need to go Atomic, Dog.

        I am not sharing this to embarrass you, or lift myself up as some exalted judge… Remember when I told you that we are guests here? It’s true. This cyber-place is Marina’s home, not ours. Not one of us has rights to the content or administration of Marina’s site. She shows great patience and hospitality to invite us in and allow us to “speak” our minds and share. Whether through ignorance or malice, or a cry for attention, you’ve made some false accusations. I think you owe Doctor Orlova an apology.

          Okay this has taken me all afternoon, all night, and may continue on to the very early morning, I tried and retried, lost and relost my data, have thought and rethought, read and reread over and over all the stuff that was and has become of this, I had to do a lot of soul searching, and trying to find and locate the real me, or what I think and consider as so, I wasn’t there and didn’t want to, or even know how to make a forum, I was talking groups, or even wanted to be in a group, so the starters of this must have made this group with me know or seeing other wise than it being a forum, that’s what I always thought, and know of this as, never would have guessed or known this I had to dig through a lot within me, and a lot of stuff said and did, and any proof to why my Forum, or so I always thought it to be true all this time, and never knew or thought of my metal thing as being a part or be among the groups, no one ever told me, or disagreed or told me any different, So I thought, and always felt it to be true to be a forum somehow, OKay this is getting harder and harder for me to do, all the voices, the speed, just zipping, and whirling around my brain at unbelievable speeds, and all such a blur, and hard to track down or trace what I want to find, or wish to unearth, the real me, not Neo, and his different forms, He is part of me in away, I don’t know how or why, it just seems so, I tried telling myself, this is just a website, and cyberspace, and it or the characters shouldn’t matter or mean as much to me as they do. But I think the main reason, is the real person behind the mask, or the act, or character, version, that I see and view, bit the heart, soul, and spirit, of that man or women, or group. I came to some hurtful, and truthful conclusions, I was way out of line, and never should have done, said, or acted the way I did to you and all the others, I didn’t really mean to do it, but I only got myself to blame. I was wrong in doing so and I’m sorry for all this bro’ It got many if not all to come back down to earth and face the music! Well I will try and describe and go into better detail, in my over all apologizing, and I got other individuals a very deep and heart felt, and meant apologies to them, or follow there advice, before it’s to late, come to terms, and come back to reality, is it my withdrawal of any new main lessons by Marina, my love, passion and art being taken away, I got some very serious withdrawal, and other things better hopefully soon, I’m very slow, and all thumbs it seems, and my grammar and spelling are not the best. I was over taken by thoughts and ideas that had nothing to do with this, and I was only fooling myself, and even justifying it. I guess what I have to say is an explaination, and maybe the cause or part of my problems I have been going through. Well all I can do is ask for your forgiveness, and over look my sin, and my errors I made of this. Well hope to hear or see from you soon Peace, Neo Out, I seen some posts of yours that I might be able to join in or maybe add something to it possibly, for what its worth, these apologizes, and everything will most likely take me down to my last hours, of early morning, and maybe to tired, or upset, to post later, I feel this needs to be properly address the to my ability to do so. They sound cool and good topics, that I find interesting, always looking, and checking and caring about you and what you post and say, I just don’t always know what to say, or sometimes feel I’m butting in where I don’t belong, or what I was thinking of using or sharing was already used or taken, so that had left me at times at a lost, on what to do or say, But I’m alive, and I have said I’ll Be Back, and Hasta Lavista Baby, I know it looks to be spelled wrong, and I can’t seemed to find the fix or proper connections, and have already spent much time on this, because, I’m there and truly care, catch you on the flip side, I would try and add some things to go along or seemly fit into the words, but I’m not taking , but when I go to bring up or add anything, it makes everything unstable, and even faulter and lose all that I did type. But so long for at least the time being, hope to see you soon!

    The Joke of The Day
    Animal Jokes :: #9272
    By Charles M. Richardson from USA.

    THE CAT:

    One day, a cat dies of natural causes and goes to heaven, where he meets the Lord Himself.

    The Lord says to the cat, “You lived a good life, and if there is any way I can make your stay in heaven more comfortable, please let me know.”

    The cat thinks for a moment and says, “Lord, all my life I have lived with a poor family and had to sleep on a hard wooden floor.”

    The Lord stops the cat and says, “Say no more,” and a wonderful, fluffy pillow appears.

    A few days later, six mice are killed in a tragic farming accident, and all of them go to heaven.

    Again, the Lord is there to greet them with the same offer.

    The mice answer, “All our lives we have been chased.

    We have had to run from cats, dogs, and even women with brooms.

    Running, running, running; we’re tired of running.

    Do you think we could have roller skates so that we don’t have to run anymore?”

    The Lord says, “Say no more” and fits each mouse with beautiful new roller skates.

    Week later, the Lord stops by to see the cat and finds him snoozing on the pillow.

    The Lord gently wakes the cat and asks him, “How are things since you got here?”

    The cat stretches and yawns, then replies, “It is wonderful here.

    Better than I could have ever expected. And those ‘Meals On Wheels’ you’ve been sending by are the best!”

    A preacher of the old school was describing the events of
    Judgement Day and, of course, he used Biblical phraseology
    whenever he could.

    “Oh, my friends,” he intoned, “imagine the suffering of the
    sinners as they find themselves cast into the outer darkness,
    removed from the presence of the Lord and given to eternal
    flames. My friends, at such a time there will be weeping,
    wailing and a great gnashing of teeth!”

    At this point, one of the elders of the congregation inter-
    rupted to say, “But Reverend, what if one of those hopeless
    sinners has no teeth?”

    The preacher crashed his fist on the pulpit, “My friends,
    the Lord is not put out by details. Rest assured… teeth
    will be provided!”

    “How do I stop?” he yelled.

    “Bet on it!” I hollered back.

    Silent Treatment

    Mike and Joan were having some problems at home and were giving each other the “silent treatment.” But then Mike realized that he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 am for an early morning drive with some pals to go golfing.

    Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and so lose the ‘war’), he wrote on a piece of paper, “Please wake me at 5:00am.”

    The next morning, Mike woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 am and that his friends had left for the golf course without him. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn’t awakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.

    The paper said, “It’s 5:00 am. Wake up.”

    Men simply are not equipped for these kinds of contests

    The Parrot

    A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird’s mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity.

    John tried and tried to change the bird’s attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to “clean up” the bird’s vocabulary.

    Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder.

    John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.

    Fearing that he’d hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John’s outstretched arms and said “I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I’m sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior.”

    John was stunned at the change in the bird’s attitude.

    As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird continued, “May I ask what the turkey did?”

Thank you Trusty my dear!

          You can also reply to the comment by replying to the email and it posts the reply on to the website.. it’s pretty cool! Try it sometime.. I think it strips our your signature if you have one.. though I’m not 100% sure on that.. so you might want to make sure you don’t include your phone number at the bottom of your email if you reply via email.

    Marina, thanks for being patient with us and our demands on your attention. Apparently we all love this site and can’t wait for it to get back on track. We’re still having technical issues (like the disappearing replies)… well, I know I am still having that issue… and I am trying my best to be polite and patient in kind. But hurry up already! This is driving me nutty! :-)

      I just “Whitelisted” you as well, so hopefully your comments will not go to spam either… The system is still learning who is who. :-)

        What about my notifications, I very rarely get any of them, is this what could be blocking them are they marked as spam, and what is white listed, or what does it do. Is there anything you can do to help me get my notifications, or does this have anything to do with it. Something is stopping, or keeping these email notices that I very rarely get! Is there something on my end, or something that you could try, how can you tell if someone is marked as spam, I been putting up with this no notifications for a long time now. Well whatever I was just hoping or wishing this could be corrected, and this sounds like it maybe what it is stopping me from getting my stuff as well!

          You’ve probably not received notifications due to the recent and ongoing tech changes on this site. If you want to make sure you are getting your notifications, now that we have the single login through Disqus, you’ll need to look at your profile in Disqus. Login, if you aren’t already, and update your notifications there and save them. There will be some lag time between this site and your email server, so don’t expect instantaneous notifications. Your notifications are not being blocked as spam. Marina is referring to some of the “disappearing comments” that I was experiencing. My replies were going into a spam folder. As for “whitelisting,” that phrase is an antonym for “blacklisting.” Being blacklisted is to be denied access. Whitelisting clears all obstacles. As with PD, Marina has removed any guards against my account, to prevent my comments from going to spam. This is likely due to our long association with the site, earned trust (I hope), and HFW’s open and accepting nature.

            I see, thank for letting me in on what it all meant, and what was going on, and being talked about. I should have guessed or known that, but sometimes we need to be shown or help us find our way. And I hope it earned trust, and Marina’s open and accepting nature! Peace!

      Your comments were marked as SPAM.. it happens when you just post a link. I have now approved them and added you to the Whitelist, so *hopefully* they won’t be marked as SPAM anymore! Let me see if I can make it so that comments don’t go to SPAM unless I allow them to.

      I looked at your avatar and it looks likes like you uploaded the Blue G avatar to your profile.

      If you haven’t, shall I notify support and have them try to fix your avatar? Make a new comment and upload the avatar you want and I’ll send it to them.

      They said they were fixing the problem as it appears to have been a problem for a lot of people .. this way I can get them to fix yours specifically!

      Let me know!

        Hello Marina, I never did, or had that gravatar, I didn’t want it, somehow I just got it. I’m not sure just got on, but now my avatar for the moment is showing up. But who knows if it will stick or stay that way, I got my avatar to stay for just a little bit, then it would change back in a few minutes or less, back to the blue G thing, which I never uploaded or wanted it, didn’t even know that it existed until just lately, for some reason it kept showing up. I hope that my avatar stays the way it is now. But who knows, Let me see if it works and stays like it is right now! Thank you for your help and concern, see you later, Marina, and everyone, I guess that would be a good morning here, but I’m not a morning person, All well, I hope all stays and keeps on going good I hope! Peace!

      Mmm? One the first comment there’s a “Like” and a “Reply” , on the second there’s a Edit and Reply button. I’ve never seen a Like button on one of my own comments. Maybe its because i change my avatar that I can like my own comment? Let’s see what this on does.

      Must be..only an edit & reply on this one.
