Question: How long do the posts to Mudchat stay in "existance"

Mudchat. I would guess typically most posts last a few minutes. I don't know the specifics of CFChat (the program Mudchat uses) but a lot of that type use a "rotating array" in the web server's memory space to hold a few chat lines, I'd guess 10-50 lines of chat.

The longest time that anything would stay in memory is the time the server is running. In the case of Mudcat on average that is about 1/2-1/3 of a day taking a 90 day average from Netcraft.

There is one other factor though. That is the messages could be logged. I don't know whether that happens or not. All I do know is that years ago there was a Java Chat here and that was logged.

I'm one of those people who is always looking for signs and meanings in things that occur.

I just woke up from this dream of a "West Side Story"/"Billy Jean" kinda scene {or whatever old school Michael Jackson song it was where he and his 'posse' dance/fight another gang in imitation of that classic "West Side Story" scene.

In my dream, instead of young adults the opposing 'gangs' were boys and girls. These kids stood facing each other divided by a tall chain linked playground fence. One group was already in the playground, and the other was outside.

But when the playground gate suddenly opened by itself, instead of fighting, the two groups of children joined together and had fun playing handclaps, chasing games, jump rope, and other such games.

For some reason, who knows why, that made me think of Mudcat and this thread.

I wondered if this thread was a test to see if positivity would triumph here over negativity.

One way that could occur is if-in trying to reach the goal of 1,000 comments [a fun goal so why not?]-rather than adding posts that dwell on the hurt and pain of the past, we concentrated on contributing our own or others' witty or otherwise creative compositions, and/or our own or other's positive, insightful sayings.

I'm game. What about you?



Best wishes,

Azizi Powell

After the Big Mudcat Crash, when the Cat came back with 6 months worth of posts missing, Max warned us that anything we posted at that point might get lost. During that period between 13th and 15th June - when in fact some posts did end up disappearing, I got a chuckle out of something that El Greko had written. Fortunately I heeded Max's words, and saved it. Amidst all the speculation about who Martin Gibson is, and whether "he" will be back in another incarnation, comes this little gem...... ya gotta love the last line!

I dreamed a dream the other day
an angel came to me
the things he whispered in my ear,
I tell you, they fair threw me.

"Forget the past my friend", he said,
"yesterday's done and dusted,
the future will be what you want,
it's up to you to cast it".

"You can forget your past mistakes,
forget the gains and losses,
shortcomings and bad habits that
you carried like crosses".

"When you wake up, you will be born
anew, the past is zero.
And up to you if you will be
a villain or a hero".

I woke up, lit a cigarette,
sat by myself and pondered.
Of all the dreams, the weirdest yet,
"And have I changed?" I wondered.

There I was, fat and smoking still
with minimal willpower.
My zits all there, my grey hair too,
my stomach like a tower.

And then I thought, perhaps it's not
my physical appearance
that changed, but something else instead:
the key was perseverance.

Switched on and logged into Mudcat
(it still did recognise me)
but hey! - the old threads had all gone
and that sure did surprise me.

So, that is what the angel meant;
my postings had all vanished.
Along with them, all I had said
from memory was banished.

Gone now El Greko, George gone too,
along with his friend Xander;
gone each and every spurious thought
that had on screen meandered.

Here was my chance to start again,
create a new persona.
"What shall I call myself?" I thought
"Something that speaks of honour!"

"Nelson, or Shakespeare, or perhaps
Brecht, Alexander, Ibsen.
I got it! As I love guitars,
I'll call me Martin Gibson!"

If you know what I mean;
Make way for the positive day,
'cause it's news (new day) - news and days -
New time (new time), and if it's a new feelin' (new feelin'), yeah! -
Said it's a new sign (new sign):
Oh, what a new day!

Pickin' up?

Where did all the silliness go? As soon as this thread turns the corner, someone tries to bring it back to nasty. Glad I sacked out early.
