News / Forum Spam
« on: January 08, 2010, 09:28:51 AM »
As some of you may have noticed there has been a bit of influx of the amount of spammers that register and create spam/advertisment threads on the forums. This is inevitable whenever you change hosts.
I have been deleting the spam accounts and posts as I am finding them but this would become tedious after a while, what I have been doing is comparing the e-mail registered to the spam account to a database of forum spammers: http://www.stopforumspam.com/
Every spam post I have seen was registered to at least one record in that database, that tells me that if I cross reference the Username, E-Mail, and IP registered on the account to that database and if I find a match then I know spam is soon to follow.
So..... the next logical step is to cross-reference the registration info automatically with the database and deny the registration of the spammer if there is a match.
This has been done by installing a Mod for SMF forums that does just that, lucky eh?
So, in short... The spam should subside.
+Rep Yes? kthxbye

I really didn't give this band a chance because they are an L.A. Based Metal band and there really hasn't been any good metal come out of L.A. since Motley Crue but, DAMN!

News / Arcade Personal Message Notifications
« on: December 31, 2009, 06:40:36 PM »
I've read that some members are a bit annoyed by the amount of PM's they are receiving from the arcade informing them that their high score has been beaten. The purpose of this poll is to determine if you all would like to keep this feature or to stop receiving PM's from the arcade. The poll will go for three days.

As i'm sure some of you have already noticed there is a new item in the menu bar at the top of the forums, the "Arcade"
I have uploaded a set of basic games to the arcade. They are nice time wasters and I remember people enjoyed these from way back when.
You can play these games without having to logon to the forums but keep in mind your scores will not be recorded.
To browse a list of the games available simply click on the "Arcade" button.
If you want to suggest a game to add to the arcade please visit: http://games.smfarcade.info/index.php and shoot me the link of a game you want added in a PM.

News / WE ARE BACK BITCH'S.
« on: December 29, 2009, 03:13:07 PM »
After weeks of toiling over Servers and Workstations I have restored *MAFIA* to it's former glory. This time with a more stable host. Keep in mind things will look a bit different. We will be restoring bits and pieces in the coming days and weeks.
Everybody together now, "ALL HAIL BALTH!, ALL HAIL BALTH!"
Edit:
Every *MAFIA* member is now obligated to +rep me by at least 10 points everyday for the next month because of this.

I tried a little experiment today at work.
I interrupted everybody's work session with the following message...
Suffice it to say, there were many lulz.
