A new group has been created: Hog Pit'ers. This is an open, public group for anyone to join. At some point this coming weekend, the Hog Pit will be placed behind that group, so that only those who want to see it, do.
The only change will be that it is opt-in; if you don't want to participate in those threads, don't join the group. If you do, you know where to click.
This thread is open for questions.

How do I join that Group? I forget.
Go here and just click join.
In the row of icons up top, there's one that looks like a group (ha ha ha) of people. Click on it. Click on the group you want. Join at will.

I see it's been renamed 'Pitcrew'. MUCH better.
Prolly Glitch or Theno's doing. They're better at naming.

Will they change my tires for me?
@EmmahSue There's three of you. If you didn't do it, one of them did.

Ah, I see you've mistyped yahoo.com, the internet isn't broken after all!

I still remember the time my cousin and I convinced our other cousin that if you googled "Google" the internet broke.
He did it. We disconnected the internet just as he did it.
I have never seen someone freak out so much in my life. It probably didn't help that we had spent like an hour explaining to him the ramifications of the internet suddenly collapsing and how he should not under any circumstance google "Google".

In the 90s when more military units started getting an/uyks, the joke on the kids just out of boot camp was that it was voice operated. Then see how long you could keep them sitting there saying 'computer on' ('it doesn't recognize your voice ... try saying ...'). You could demonstrate it by flicking the power switch when you said it.
The days before voice recognition was a thing ... I feel old.
I'm just a surge protector doing my job, sir.

Yeeaaah. My phone now voice-searches porn for me.

It wasn't me, but how about "Pitstains"?

edit: I flipped the switch. If you want to post to the Hog Pit, you must belong to the "Pitcrew" group by going here. For now all other registered users can still read it, as part of the staged transition.
I dislike hiding the Hog Pit behind a wall.
It's what these boards were built for, initially, and if we let jackass trolls force us to make changes like that then the Republicans win.
Add me in to the ones who finds this unnecessary and catering to the idiots.
Wasn't this place created to talk freely about "things"? Starting with Mu*'s? Seems like you can ban people you don't agree with or that harass people easy enough...
