No time or motivation to make that change. I reckon you can live with it.

Changes: * gmail.com is now blocked. They were blocking our activation emails causing tons of inactive accounts. We have returned the favor by blocking this email domain. * The registration question was revised to hopefully be more difficult for bots. * I'm thinking of deleting accounts with no post...

Sherman is made Global Moderator. Please give him your support.

The site has been unstable for a few days. I've blocked all the bots making hundreds of connections and things seem OK now. Let's see.

Check our new policy on ghosting/abandonment.

We have instituted a new policy. If you come here and raise an issue and we actively engage with you on that issue, and you then simply disappear with no further response to our suggestions/questions/test versions, etc., we will consider that to be ghosting/abandonment. This is especially frustratin...

So far so good. We had 3 just this morning before I made changes. After changing the Q&A and going to user activation instead of automatic, we've been clean. I think the bad guys have a database of known questions and answers, so probably we'll get solved again. If so, we'll move to the Sortables ca...

I changed the question and set up user email activation. Let's see how it goes.

Guys, the spammers are back. Even though you will never see any posts due to first-post moderation, I have to manually delete these guys. So we're switching to admin activation. Our notifications work good now so it should not be a problem. Well, the problem is I'll probably get these wankers' reque...

I didn't know that our ISP requires the sending email address to be located on their server. It was set to donald.graft AT cantab.net before. Yup, it was that simple. For shoots and goggles, I logged into our board account and in the inbox were thousands of notifications that the mails weren't sent ...

Yee-ha! I got the email/notifications working. Let's see.

You can try sending yourself an email. Tap your name on the left side of one of your posts and select Send email.

You can control who (admin and/or users) can send you emails in your board preferences.

Apparently some team groups could not receive PMs. I have fixed it.

1. We have re-organized the 'The Team' display.
2. skull was promoted to Global Moderator. Congratulations skull!

Discussion of virus false positives for eac3to releases is not allowed. You may send reports to Rocky via PM if you feel the need to. The matter has been submitted to Microsoft. There is NOTHING more we can do than that. If we ever get an answer, we'll share it with you. Pointlessly harping on it he...

Just found out the board was configured such that with a little trickiness you could find out other users' email addies. This has now been corrected and there is no way to discover email addresses. When you use the send email to a user option it is done only through the board software and does not i...

Congratulations to skull on his appointment as moderator of the EAC3TO Mod subforum!

An EAC3TO Mod subforum has been created. The main thread has been moved there and a tracking thread for feature and bug fix requests was created.

https://www.rationalqm.us/board/viewforum.php?f=18

Also, the order of the forums on the forums page was changed to better reflect current conditions.

As if you didn't already know.

I'm looking into it. I believe one of our extensions is causing it.

Sweet! Let us know your results.

BTW, I just deleted 600 core dumps in the /board directory, totaling over 50 GB! They were all from 8-22-2023. Maybe someone was hacking away or something.

I've always hated that sickly green in code blocks, so now it is sickly black.

Do we really need that alternating nonsense?

User signatures are now enabled. Set it up in your profile. Have fun.

Ooh, HTML? PHP? Submit a patch OK?

No speciesism here. Bring it.
