Seriously, whatever you did is bad!  Sorry Vic, I tried to post pictures but now the message 'Security Check' shows not safe.  I cannot stand this, time consuming and senseless waste of time!  100%!

Too much problems to post, even the words, Still no edit. 

I will spend considerably less time, everything for the last hour plus an hour last night either will not post or is deleted as I post it.

I stop, have a great day Vic.  You board is bad, literally the worst.  Sorry, but true.

Well, a full-blown spam attack started all of this. Add people doing shady things and we end-up here.

If we go back to where we were, we'll have just viagra and porn spam.

In a around a week more than 100+ spam accounts were created in a row as we passed from ~1700 to 1800+ members out of nowhere. All of them are spammers ready to fire. Seems there were some automated security updates too. (i.e A character in my signature got messed)

Any case, these sort of things happen because we're using a 3rd-party core which was extended to get us online ASAP. I'm doing our own web engine from the very scratch so I'm not standing still. That's the one true solution. Getting us to a fresh code-base for us to have our own updates schedule.

Let me check what I can do to get us to a workable state around here. Rest assured your participation IS appreciated and I'm with you: it's sucky right now, but from the administrative point of view this is better than being flooded with nasties that would really ruin us badly.

Thanks for the comprehension. I'm  checking permissions right now.
