Raptorpat Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) Unofficial so just mentioning it here and not making a formal announcement yet, but we may be doing our big software/security update this weekend. Slight possibility that downtime cuts into toonami hours but not sure yet. If it goes through, we will probably shut down the ASMB anniversary board at that time and revert any lingering changes like mod rank shenanigans. Security update should resolve this horrible botspam we deal with on a daily basis. EDIT: Site Maintenance is tonight (10/6) and the website will be down for a few hours Edited October 6, 2023 by Raptorpat 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I've seen it on this board, but I've been on boards where one bot will flood the entire first page with spam in the span of less than an hour, and just keep doing it every day. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostrek Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) @Raptorpat honestly here's an odd idea maybe some kind of meet and greet face to face the voice to voice event would be cool i think a philosophy and religion folder would be nice also for that type of subject manager I've been reading a lot about religion and stuff and it'll be I call myself an agnostic it is a deeply fascinating subject matter both areas or event that opens us up to the outside world .

dateme Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 There's not much and there is a lot of info. on the invision community boards or whoever the company is that runs/does invision section of the company, about stopping bots. When I typed in invision community bots in the main community board, it gave a lot of results, but they were not dated in sequence. I think there was like 250 pages of crap and I was like nope, too much crawling for this bot and went back into my dump space in my hive. I did also try to boolean it with different stuff like month, 2023, but nothing worked for me but it might you. I'm dumb about boolean. I don't even know what that word boolean means, I just made that word up, it doesn't exist in my memory dump and there's not anything on the internet about it from my existence to this day forward. If you can explain it to me that'd be great because I want to know about boolean. BOOLEAN!!!! J/K I know what it means, but I suck at searching boolean. I'm going to say BOOLEAN again. BOOLEAN! It rolls off the tounge very nicely. Say it over and over and you will fall in love with it and will be talking to each other in BOOLEAN over and over before/during/or after mating or whatever you do. It'll go something like, "stick that big BOOLEAN in my BOOLEAN and BOOLEAN me until I BOOLEAN all over your BOOLEAN you big BOOLEAN" etc. etc... Anyway, my suggestion is if you can make an account there (if you haven't already) and tell them what your problem is, they seem to be very responsive to the community and may be able to help you.

Gemini Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 This reminds me of the layout of the forums my sim league uses for stuff. (It also uses Invision Community for the layout.) I have included a link to the sim league forums for comparision. This is in no way me trying to recruit anybody to join the sim league.

rpgamer Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Poking around finding changes. It seems for maybe larger threads (I think?), the site adds some extra sidebar with stuff like "top posters" and "posted images" etc. At a glance, nifty extra thread info. But also means the entire rest of the page has a quarter of the screen taken up by blank space. Definitely something we could probably do without, if there's any way to disable that.
