DNS updated, moving server now. Sorry if anyone notices an outage, should not be a long one.

Moving the server this friday night if I can get ahold of brock .,. Server will be down for about an hour, sorry for this, but we need to have a smooth transition and database shenanigans can corrupt data. It is all up to your DNS, i recommend you use google (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) as your name...

Spent the evening re-configuring the new server, security etc. We will be doing a transition to the new server this weekend. I will try to do some database shananigans, so that way if someone is on this site, they actually will be talking to the database on the new server. that basically means...

I hate server issues. my isp has been really really good. and I have a bad feeling they are getting too big. server is fine now, but I have to look at alternatives. which tends to be costly and very time consuming! argh

server updated, hopefully performance will be more consistant, otherwise I will have to move the server to a new ISP. hopefully with little to no downtime. Sorry about the outage today. Derek :evil:

Honestly, I could spend hours trying to stop the particular people from spamming, but it makes Mike feel really special, so once in a while we need to throw him a bone! :) Seriously though, the spam attacks do not happen often and they are being handled very quickly, so it is hard to justify...

If you want something a bit more integrated in windows, and "light" I use http://imageresizer.codeplex.com/ when I do not use photoshop. This is simple. Right Click on a bunch of files, and hit RESIZE, it will allow you to pick any size, and has some good advanced tweaks. it is opensource and...

just one person to block for now, if it is one attack a week, there is no point boosting the security level to high. all cleaned up.

I am upgrading our site to use cloudflare CDN, basically all images and static content is served via their services, we will give it a shot and see how it works ... it is easy to turn off. this service automatically black lists all of those bots that tend to try to spam the board every new...

just bumping this thread to keep it on the front page of active posts because the title makes me smile.

it is really frustrating, it never logs out on IE but on Firefox it still boots me. If you google phpbb and cookies, you can see it is a huge issue. Hopefully we will hit our donation goal soon and migrate to a supported commercial platform and a lot of these issues will go away. I personally...

I turned off the quick login pop up box and altered the cookie settings, we will see if that helps a bit. I am able to shut down and open my browser and still be logged on.

I turned off some of the spam checks for now, so adding a new post will be quicker, if we get spam attacked again, we will have to turn it on for a little while.
