Board Changes!

Postby Adamm » Fri Jul 01, 2011 10:34 am GMT

Due to a**hole Russian spammers, I've temporarily disabled new user accounts. Once we do some updating, mod testing, and blocking of Russia's entire IP block, it'll be back. If you really want a new account, send me an email.

Also, I've disabled signatures. In most cases it's just spam for a website and not really useful or relevant. Balanced against the need for people to creatively express some silly quote, I'm sure we'll get by without it. :)

In the meantime, f*ck spammers, especially sneaky a**hole Russian ones. Those dicks ruin the internet. You can sig quote me on that.

The update didn't faze them, so new regs are blocked again and we're looking into other options. I hate Russians.

A few new Mods added. The one you'll notice is the new math captcha. Every once in a while a little math problem will appear below the subject line. Sometimes it's a numerical, sometimes spelled out, sometimes a Roman numeral (I got confused when it asked me what 4-X was).

If you can't do the problem because you are an idiot, then I'm sorry, you can't post here.

New user registrations are turned back on again. Beware.

Well, I suppose you'll have to mail them reminders. To make sure they see the URL, you should probably put it on the bottom of the bottle you mail to them.

I'll volunteer to be a test market.

F*ck everything, I'm turning off new user registrations. Chick-fil-A help me. The amount of spam is disgusting. If I had nuclear capabilities, Russia would be in big trouble. I hate everything. Peace out.
