Forum Upgrades
« on: May 8, 2006 08:17 pm CDT »
I've updated the forum again.  We've switched to the latest version (2.0.20) from 2.0.19.  Along with this, I've also updated all of the existing visual styles to support visual confirmation during registration.  This will hopefully keep out all of the spam bots.  Additionally, I've gone through the member database and removed (nearly) all of the existing false advertising registrations, so we're back to our 857 legitimate users.  In addition, I've added some slick new visual styles (such as the Acid Tech series) for you folks to dig into.

Have fun and enjoy.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

I've never checked out the visual styles before but that Acid Tech is sweet.

Fixed the quotes thing.  Turns out there are some bugs in 2.0.20 that they (amazingly) didn't fix.  I'm applying the fixes now.

I fixed all the errors that have been mentioned, including anonymous activation (rare cases), quotes, and private messaging problems.  We should be good to go now!   :cheers:

More upgrades.  Thanks to a mod written by "Nox", email buttons don't show up to guests anymore.  That means that ad robots can't crawl the forum and steal your email addresses right off of the member list or the email buttons at the bottom of your posts.  Since my site is more crawlable now, and I have committed the time to help protect the forum from spambots, please be careful with your posts as well (at least if you don't want spam).  Try not to post your email addresses directly in a public post.  Hidden forum are ok, of course.

Just giving a heads up and a word on the new protection I've established.   :cheers:
