BOARDS UNDER MAINTANENCE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

Post by Lilae »

Urgon, please ban all the new users with the sex names, there are tons of them on the memberlist now. I'm don't think there is a way for me to do it.

BOARD UNDER MAINTENANCE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

Post by Urgon »

Thanks for the heads up Lil!!!

I will be putting the board into a series of lock-downs until this is resolved.

We will most likely have to go to a more aggressive security stance on the board. i.e. new registrants will have to be manually approved prior to posting.... <sigh>.. the griefers get us again...

Well, I'm not sure how or why, but the number of new bogus board registrations has risen sharply the past few days. I'm back to getting 10-15 a day.

Currently, there is no benefit for these folks to register unwantedly. Their name never shows on the member list. They cannot post. I figure it is just some old bot program that seeks out phpbbs boards and signs up.

Anyways, I will be working on a few more upgrades to the system. When I do that, I will have to freeze the boards closed for short periods. So, if you see it all locked down.. that is why. Just check back the next day, and all should be good.

:)

Cheers,
