There is a forgot password link, but it's kind of lost in the long message shown when you fail to login. It's here, if anyone else is looking for it: https://www.hawaiithreads.com/login.php?do=lostpw...

This message board is run entirely out of pocket by me personally.

The lack of traffic is not uncommon for message boards, which are definitely a relic of a time before social media. Most of the...

The title of the final paper was "Online Social Behaviors and Prediction of their Implications for the Physical World." Here's one summary of the results:

Sorry. It's a matter of survival. Without shutting down the built-in registration system, we were seeing tens of thousands of sign-ups per day, thanks to automated spam systems that specifically...

It is still possible to join HawaiiThreads, and I generally don't let pending requests go for more than a week. I didn't see Anitya's email until Jan. 16, and Anitya got her account set up on Jan. 24...

Got an email submission from Martin to share in this thread:


If anyone wants to get in touch, email bright.eye.band.1977@gmail.com!

Please get in touch if you think you can help!

The bulletin board software time has been manually bumped forward five hours. This may help, or just make things worse!

Tomorrow is the ninth anniversary of the founding of HawaiiThreads.com (April 4, 2004). Though we're no longer seeing the flood of posts we once did, it's still remarkable that this old-school forum...

It was closed because it was a pointless gripe about how no one was responding to another thread. Of course, a new thread was apparently started to complain about the closure, which I admit, should...

Message boards, like blog comments and other web tools inviting people to post content, are frequently targeted by spammers. Even with CAPTCHAs and other 'are you human?' checks, the automated tools...

I've added the option to the poll.

Got an email last month I thought I'd post in case it jogs anyone's memory:

I received the below from a representative of 360 Security Solutions LLC, which requested it be posted in response to this old thread. I let the company know that won't be able to participate on HT,...

Helen and I both rename threads, though I'm especially grateful to Helen lately, as I've not been able to spend as much time here as I'd like. We definitely don't want to make things worse (which I'm...

Or maybe it's time for members to try and get back on topic, or find another thread.

This topic has certainly strayed and is now closed. Nobunaga is also on hold until I can authenticate his identity. I got a little lax with my vetting process (it certainly prompts some angry...

Let's focus each post on a given idea's relevance to capital punishment and the death penalty, which is where this previously coherent thread started. If you want to stray into discussions of Nazis,...

Sansei does not have the ability to start new threads. But yes, this thread was unnecessarily revived, with election discussions already going on elsewhere. I'm closing it.

If you took the survey and are still waiting for your gift certificate, be sure to contact Sun-Ki via email at sunki@hawaii.edu. Just anecdotally, if you use web-based email -- Yahoo! in particular...

Thanks to all of you for participating, and for being so thoughtful and supportive. I'm generally reluctant to send e-mails to the community (someone replied that they don't think they've ever...
