I'm not one for liking Captcha, some of them make you feel like a tard getting it wrong. I like using questions to see if they are real people.

You could try to wire a RP bus into it, may that would help.

and someone just tried to flood us, funny
quite a bit of time since the last attack

Added reCaptcha

I really hope it stops the spambots this time

I installed a new plugin to attemt to stop spammers once again
Lets see if that works this time...

What does the Plugin do in particular?

What does the Plugin do in particular?

Checks for known spammers (ip, email) and scans their post content

Moved the database to a new server (took an hour instead of a few minutes like planned)
IC.net is gonna move within the next few days too, there shouldn't be any major downtime though

Will we actually notice anything different on the new server?

Hopefully less outages due to other stuff overloading it (Its quite beefy, more ram, 64GB, than I know what to do with) - otherwise, nope!

What (did) overload it? Was it just trolls DDoSing stuff?

Yep

If there's no news then nothing's going to get posted here.

So, as you may have noticed we updated the forum version and are now on https! (blog and wiki coming soon™)

There are some design things that arent perfect yet and we probably missed things here and there - feel free to point those out to us

Shoutbox missing? That was the obvious one.
