[staff] Registering...

Posted by kevboh on April 16, 2007, 11:27 a.m.

Everyone:

Sorry if you're someone who wants to join the site. Currently, registering has been turned off until the current and very apparent spam attack has been dismantled.

Expect this limitation to be lifted tonight or tomorrow.

By <strike>tonight</strike> now, a new limit to new blogs will be coded in. Give me a few hours, I have to familiarize myself with 64d's code, and I have a couple of classes left today.

GREAT! Just what was asked for. That solves this for awhile. Nice job.

This should have been done a long time ago. Thank you Kevboh.

Just removing his User Accounts so he can do no further Trouble.

@APH: Only doing that would cause him to come back, though, so I feel that besides recoding a new feature, this was the best decision.

With registering shutdown he would still be able to carry on Spaming, as he had many accounts. However now i have deleted his accounts and with registering shutdown he can not come back at this moment till the correct codding is setup.

Yet his blog still remains…and I got a nasty blank spot from his PM.

"I've been here since September!"

All his spam has been removed now.

That's good. I wonder who it really was…

Didn't notice the spam, or the register freeze, I guess I just didn't look. [:P]
