[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.

I was the spammer!

*almost dead*

I… was… only… joking…

My confession. Sorry for spamming :(

JW 17 years, 7 months ago

Ehm, I can't edit my blog?

kevboh 17 years, 7 months ago

Yeah sorry, fixed that.

Why don't you guys make it physically impossible to have two blogs on the front page in a 24 hour period? Or at least 12 or 6 hour period? That would eliminate pretty much all types of spam attacks, without affecting the flow of the site too much.

Because it's a logical thing to do Fred, and we know that 64D isn't run like that

Haha yes, and ofcourse, an account would have to wait x hours, before he can make his own blog.

Devilis, you disappoint me. Spam is always the worst choice.

I noticed it as soon as he started, but i had to run to school in 10 minutes so i complained in one of his blogs that i had no power to delete his account. =P
