Board Upgrades Finished

Post by Xranger60 »

With the board upgrades finished, hopefully this will take care of the spam-bots. We shall see. In the meantime, the new portal upgrade is causing some conflicts with our old data, such as downloads, screenshots, etc, that I am dealing with. Hopefully that issue will be resolved quickly.

I'm interested in seeing when all the articles, reviews and the like will be back up. Would guessing in the next few days be too optimistic? :P

Welcome Grolt! I haven't had a whole lot of time on my hands lately. Don't worry, I'll be doing what I can to get those lost materials up soon. There's some video, the articles (with a fair bit of info), and a bunch of screenshots. I almost wish I hadn't updated the portal- it means I have to get anything that was on the portal back up and reconfigured.

Xranger60 what measures did you take to get rid of all of the spambots?

My almost never used phpbb board on my Saturn site is filled with them. 90% of my registered users are bots I think. Getting sick of cleaning and banning every few days.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get rid of the bots. They seem to come in spurts, all from some sender who registers them all under .info email addresses.

There is no possibility of banning all email addresses with that suffix? Surely nobody else has signed up using such an address.
That's fly.

I've banned the suffixes in question. We'll see what happens.
