I spent a hour or two restoring the Comlink after it was hacked along with some other sites of mine (the hacker must be so proud of getting one over on our Gaming website - those fat cat gamers - this will show them!)

You dumb asshats

Anyway - if you notice anything odd (or red X's where icons should be) let me know, thanks.

Found one - the Delete button is broken in the Bebop and Default Themes... Fixing as soon as I can get to it.

I've got a problem with my home PC, where I can't log onto the site - it's a cookie issue...

Not sure how to fix it yet, but thank goodness it's my PC and not the site

Not sure how active I'll be in the next day or so as I try to figure it out - none of the simple fixes are working

OK, I'm going to attempt to install the dice roller mod on the forum - either tonight or tomorrow... (So sorry in advance if you get kicked out when I get things going). Hopefully it will work without a hitch.

I'm going to install a new update and then re-install the dice roller today (as updates always step on the extra stuff you have). I plan on doing this probably later tonight after 10:00pm, eastern time...

Due to the increased interest in our site generated by the conventions, I am setting the registration back to member activated. This means that folks won't have to wait for me to activate their accounts, but also that we'll get a couple of spam accounts each day as well. I'll be deleting these as I see them, but let me know if you see one posting garbage on our boards.

Thanks for your help

"Wonderful spam! Glorious spam!"

Nope, you got it in one.

I keep thinking there has to be a BHB adventure that involves the crew having to retrieve a stolen crate of valuable artifacts, only to find at the end the McGuffin is a case of Spam.

Well, I'm turning off the self activation - too much of a headache!

Folks that are real will have to wait up to a day for me to activate their accounts, but at least we'll get a rest from all the spam

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #74 on:** June 15, 2011, 06:13:22 pm »

I have added this to the top of the Account Registration Agreement:

ATTENTION REAL PEOPLE…

DUE TO THE TREMENDOUS VOLUME OF SPAM ACCOUNTS WE GET ON A DAILY BASIS, YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE MISSED (OR INADVERTENTLY DELETED) AMONG THE REST, AS YOU AWAIT ACTIVATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT. TO AVOID THIS AND EXPEDITE YOUR ACCOUNT ACTIVATION – PLEASE EMAIL Admin@BountyHeadBebop.com WITH “Gamer” IN THE SUBJECT LINE AND WE’LL GET YOU GOING ASAP. NOTE THAT THIS STEP IS NOT A REQUIREMENT FOR ACCOUNT ACTIVATION, BUT WILL ENSURE YOUR ACCOUNT IS NOT ACCIDENTLY LOST AMONG THE SPAM.

Lots of spam to slog through this week - sorry if I accidently delete a real person's account request during the clean up

The spam is non-stop - I'm deleting fifty or more a day and almost 200 per weekend - I'm not sure how to deal with it

OK - it seems to be working - now only time will tell.

I've re-enabled Membership Registration - crossing fingers

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #83 on:** April 07, 2012, 08:36:12 am »

It looks like our anti spam membership software is working well, and as we had a real person sign up after it was installed, it doesn't seem to be blocking real folks.

As such, I have set the member registration to automatically send an activation link to anyone that signs up (without me delaying it, by having to approve it first). We'll see how this goes for a while (let me know if anyone sees a spammer inatvertantly getting in and I'll zap it ASAP)

As some have noticed, there is a problem with the Forum Search Feature.

Late tonight (EST) or early tomorrow morning, I will take a stab at fixing it. This means that anyone on at the time may get booted off, so I just want everyone to be aware of it.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #85 on:** February 15, 2014, 12:09:48 am »

No luck fixing search so far...

Seems to be something with permissions. Any way you can just exclude non-general forums?

I think you are right, it's the way I have file Read/Write permissions set on the server level... All I need to do is figure out which file it's trying to write to when you do a search...

I dont know if this helps, but it to me it seems to be saying what i'm not allowed to use.

Well, i found something.

The latest posts now showing correctly what the latest post is for example On draks game i see that a new post is there but when i look at who posted and in what thread it says that i posted in the general ooc. When it was in someones OOC thread.

That's more of an issue due to the use of multiple child boards within child boards, which will greatly limit the visibility of the posts you're looking for unless you are specifically looking at the child board thread the post originated from. My section has 3 child boards with childboards (Mage ascension, Gameplay, Sidequests) which makes updates harder to spot and impossible for the stats at the bottom to detect.

Every once in a while, I get a few Sales Accounts, where the guy's Profile and Sig is nothing but a link to some Product (Solar Panels usually) and they make a subtle post to try sneaking it in.

This particular guy from India has been doing it off and on for years. He's subtle enough about it though, that I haven't bothered to ban the IP address. Beside, its Solar Panels, not Viagra, so ...
