Mama Logan
On 5/24/2006 John Hughes wrote in from United States  (65.54.nnn.nnn)

I happen to be in the right place at the right time today and got to visit with my old buddy Bruce Logan. He told me that Mama Logan had been in a car crash last night and he was on his way to the hospital to see her. We skaters from the 1970 all know her and love her, So put out a prayer for her today. In her day she did so much for so many of us. Get well soon Mama Logan,
Respectfully, John Hughes

Bots on NCDSA.com

Thanks WT, I hadn't realized the comment spammers had hit the ConCal. I'll have to add a Captcha there too. You wouldn't believe the volume of comment spam you're *not* seeing in the discussion forums due to our countermeasures.

Bots on NCDSA.com
On 5/8/2006 WT wrote in from United States  (207.200.nnn.nnn)

Anyone else noticed all the weird Bots who have invaded the contest sign up? I was looking at the La Costa sign up and see three that have invaded the website.

I have no clue how it's stopped, but wanted to mention it's happening.

Black box
On 3/26/2006 Adam wrote in from United States  (64.81.nnn.nnn)

From the webmaster..

The Black Box number is working amazingly well. I'm thrilled. I know it's a slight hassle to have to enter the number with every post.. that's why I chose to use a short all-digits captcha as opposed to most sites that use 5 or 6-characted mixed number and letter captchas.

A little comment spam is still getting through, but I suspect this is from Asian web spam boiler rooms, i.e. people paid to do nothing but cut/paste spam into blogs and forums all day. Eww.. what a job.

Attack of the comment spam bots
On 3/24/2006 Adam wrote in from United States  (198.144.nnn.nnn)

From the webmaster..

The comment spam bots have been hitting Ncdsa hard and heavy so I've just rolled out a Captcha check to make sure those posting are of the non-bot variety.

More on Captcha for those who are interested.

RollerRapper = GAY
On 3/8/2006 Rob wrote in from Canada  (65.94.nnn.nnn)

We have said that slalom is Gay, but after looking at that site, slalom is safe.

I cannot believe that there is even a market for that kind of s*&#*@t!!!!!

If that is popular somewhere, then God help us all

Just my 2 cents

Hey all
I've been doing some searching with no luck. Anyone know of a font that is a close representation of the 70's Skateboarder Magazine title font.
Stay cool

Database maintenance today.. OUCH!
On 2/17/2006 Adam wrote in from United States  (64.81.nnn.nnn)

From the webmaster..

Our database maintenance didn't go quite to plan. While we're back online after a 5-hour downtime, the database is in a possibly unstable state. I'm attempting to stabilize a copy of this database offline, and if that works, I'll replace this database with the clean one, adding in the newest posts, of course.

Database maintenance today

From the webmaster..

I'll be doing some archiving of our visitor logs today so you may see some short downtime. Page load performance should be better once the smaller database comes back online.

donation
On 12/20/2005 LBR wrote in from United States  (66.37.nnn.nnn)

I presently run skateboarding clubs at two middle schools in the Boulder, CO area. The programs are free for the kids. We skate before and after school on school grounds, using some small launch ramps and rails that were previously donated. The clubs are a partnership between the school and the YMCA of Boulder Valley, my employer.
I want to teach these kids to ride tranny! I would like to build a small quarterpipe/ bank ramp set-up that can be used seperately, side by side or together as an launch-to-bank set-up. It would be stored at the school and maintained by club-members.
I have a quote from a good friend/master ramp builder. Since the program is provided to the youth at no charge, there is very little budget for these obstacles.
Maybe you would like to help?
