A switchover to a new server (moving out of current server farm) will coincide with upgrades and new features folks have been asking for.  Will update the mods next week.

ah cool, hope there isn't any down time (at least for more then a few hours/days?)

also it would be a nice time to implement the suggestions in this thread (would greatly simplify and clean up JGO).

You use the [report to moderator] feature? It wakes up Demonpants from his otherwise pleasant daydreams.

Funny thing... that webserver is running IIS 6.0, so unlike Apache2, you can't DOS it from a home internet connection.

Note:
We can, however, punish them by automating contact-form submits, clearly stating we are not interested in spam. Keep in mind, you shouldn't be traveling to China in the next decade or so.

Raaaauuuuugh!

70 god damn posts. Why is there not a "delete all posts by this user" button. He's banned, but this is going to take a stupidly long time to clean up. Sad

Edit: Done. At least you can delete posts from the "View All Posts By This User" list. Still took 10 minutes that I can't get back.

Thanks! If I could, I'd give you 10 minutes.

Well, my avatar already binds (probable) IP addresses to usernames, so yeah, I can give you most IP addresses of quite a few regular visitors. Having said that, it's not that easy to hack somebody with only an IP address. It's a lot easier to lure people to a malicious webpage and infect them right there.

I'll create a GUI interface using Visual Basic to see if I can track the killer's IP address.

One can only wonder how this conversation was created... as screenwriters don't even know about VB, or what GUI means, so they must have done some research. They must have asked somebody in their tech department on what they should let her say. That makes me suspect a very well respected programmer answered their question with this nonsense, while keeping a straight face...

Seriously, I watched that clip 5 times, it's still funny.

No worries, my revenge will be sweet. Grin

well not much of a surprise, there are about 30 spam accounts created every day on JGO even though most of them don't post anything (maybe cos their ip is blocked?)

Just look at the latest members list on JGO, pretty easy to see they are mostly spam accounts.

JGO seriously needs some sort of stronger verification when registering for a new account.

The level of artificial intelligence has advanced to appreciate a sense of irony. Pathfinding is so 1999.
