These are currently our rules on political discussions: I'm sure many of you have noticed we've been a bit lax about political remarks outside of the Sapphire and Platinum Saloons. I noticed many of you have been able to handle at least making political remarks with the threads devolving into...

For those of you who didn't know, @Impulse and I had mixture of both regular pets, special needs animals, and rescue animals. We started off just getting pets, but when we saw had the means to take in animals that had been abused or required special care, we started making accommodations for...

This is just a quick share as it’s something I came across when I was looking over an Amazon product today. There was a customer video review for the product that was uploaded for the product. The makers of the product used the video as part of their main gallery of images, but this did get me...

Just a quick announcement there's some scheduled server maintenance on Thursday, October 2nd at 12AM PT that'll last until 4AM PT. If you'd like to know what this is in your local time, use this converter here. There should only be about 30 minutes or so of intermittent downtime between these...

For those of you who don't know this, I've been gathering information since 2018 and writing a book since 2020 about the black hat IM industry. I actually mentioned this briefly on BHW on June 24, 2020. Well, I'm finally looking to self-publish it! Writing a book is one of those things that's...

@Impulse and I finished a 16 mile hike about 5 hours ago. It took us about 8 1/2 hours to complete as we ran into some hiccups with a couple of the trails. It was a bit of spur of the moment thing, but I was watching this YouTube video the other day where some guy jogged 12 miles every day for...

We've made some changes to the notice system (what many of you will know as "warnings"). Thankfully, we rarely have to give out notices here (seriously, we only have to give out one every month at the most), so this won't affect the majority of you. Active Notices Now Result in Sapphire...

I've mentioned before that we're temporarily closing the Trading Post whilst we work out a newer, better system for it. Those of you who are Founding members will be still be able to submit a listing, and any current listings will remain open. This update does not apply to The Tribunal...

When I was setting up Office Outlaw, it was my first time setting up a Xenforo forum from scratch. So, I started reading as much about starting forums as I could. One of the topics I had to learn more about was determining and allocating server resources. Upon reading about server requirements...

I'm just letting everyone know that the two feeds we have on the homepage for the Trading Post and the general forums will be merged at some point. At these early stages of the forum, we don't actually have a need for two feeds, especially since we don't have a lot of content in the Trading...

This is just a quick tip as I've been doing more work on servers lately. When purchasing a plan with a web hosting company, you'll usually be presented with 3 options: Monthly Yearly Every 3 years I used to purchase the 3 years plans with every web hosting company I've worked with. However, I...

Yeah, so I sort of... impulsively... did an update on the server. Just letting everyone know it might restart soon and it may be down for about 15 minutes. 🤷‍♂️ I'll post a notice in advance next time, I promise. ;) If there are any issues on this forum that might have come up because of this...

Many of you know we have a few small parrots, one of which is a budgie we've had for around 5 years now. Our budgie was born with avian bornavirus and proventricular dilation disease. This is normally fatal as most people don't notice when their parrots have this. Thankfully, we noticed...

This was a long overdue announcement on my part, but @Bob and @Incarnate have been promoted to full moderator status. Just to say a bit more about them, these two have helped out tremendously not just with moderating Office Outlaw, but also with getting it properly running in the first place...

This is just a quick tip I wanted to share with everyone. Since I’ve largely stopped ordering from Amazon, I’ve started shopping locally a lot more. I often ordered health products from Amazon before that I couldn’t find locally. I don’t know if anyone else experiences this issue, but the...

I happened across this yesterday and thought it be a fun share. There's this anime dating simulator that files your 2022 taxes. I'm not kidding about any of that. It's called Tax Heaven 3000. Here's a video playthrough of it: I looked into it a bit because I actually found the idea of this...

We started gardening a bit back in February as we wanted to grow our own food. I used to have a nice garden back in 2013, but I moved houses and didn't have the time to start a new one. So we've been talking to @t2van who offered some really good advice on which plants to start growing for our...

@Impulse and I were on a hiking trail when we noticed a peculiar wall statue at someone's house. I'm just going to be blunt here, but I thought it someone just had a wall statue of a really busty lady or something just right in their front yard. I didn't want to get any closer, so I took this...

I posted about this feature in the changelog today. This should hopefully provide some performance improvements to the forum, especially in threads where a lot of images have been shared. Like I said in the changelog post, if you notice any new issues with the forum related to performance...

I got this 3 bedroom house in 2013. It was a rental at first and I was fairly young when I moved in, to the point where where the landlord was asking what a young single man wants with a 3 bedroom house. Years later, I ended up buying it from the landlord, but to be honest, I never knew what to...
