i had that once, but the email server i had set up was very unreliable. im thinking of just having as one of the questions "go to [some other place on the website] scroll to the bottom of the page, copy and paste the random string of characters into the answer box." that would probably stop most of them

this is the discussion topic for

i'm not reposting all of it to here, that would be difficult, and i'm lazy.

Thank you Floyd for all you've done in regards to getting these old programs up and running on Windows 8+, they've been a great asset to us over at WinClassic. Mad props.

You should look into getting email verification, you'd see less spambots.

Website News / wow much spam
« Last post by Floyd on July 27, 2019, 05:26:56 pm »
in the last three days a few thousand spam posts and nearly 200 spam accounts joined the forum. that is the most activity i've had on here since 2012. i ended up just restoring a backup of the database from july 2, as nothing had changed since then. now im actually going to have to fix the antispam system.

well, mostly anyway. the hard drive on the server died, fortunately i was able to back it up and no files have been lost. the whole site is running in vitrtualbox on my main desktop right now, so until i can get a new hard drive for the real server the website will only be online from about 9am till 11pm. maybe more but probably not, i dont like to leave my bedroom desktop running at night. im probably going to get a ssd now so the website will probably run better than before, but it will obviously be a while before i can get one in, i haven't even ordered one yet. pata ide hard drives of any kind are getting hard to find.

Website News / some updates?!

wow three posts in a month, that hasn't happened in years.
ok so while i was off tumblr yesterday i made some updates. most noticeably, this isn't "the internet's only strike anywhere message board" anymore, but i talked about that yesterday. also i replaced the chatroom on the radio show page, so that works again. still no idea when i'll do another radio show, i don't even have the broadcast software installed on my computer anymore. there is a new thing in the computer stuff section about running windows media player 10 on windows 10, maybe it will prove useful to someone. people still come here for program manager and desk.cpl. i guess that's all. maybe this won't be the end of the newfound activity on here.

whew that was a close one. i reset the database password because i forgot it and then the forum didn't work anymore. fortunately i remembered the old password and set it back to that and everything is back to normal now.
