[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.

Or check your last blog time, add a day, see if the current day is greater than the blog day+1.

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.

Working on that tonight. Have to do some homework first. =)

Fred said make it physically impossible to have two front page blogs.

This was a good idea, but poorly implemented. I just edited my blog and it went off the recent list.

However, I was able to circumvent this error with Firefox.
