I don't know if I could could up with enough to say. 

If there was a minimum posting limit that is. 

Action and vibe is good and more perspectives are good. 

So is hype for Quake. I didn't mean to leave that out. 

Problem solved. 

Instead of banning Rick, we ban dumb ideas?

Interestingly though, if Shambler had spread their 5618 posts relatively evenly over the past 14-and-a-bit years they've spent on the site, they would survive the minimum post ban! Assuming that the ban was "Post once per day or else!".

So would I, actually... 

Been away from my main computer for about a month or two, and when I wanted to see what I had missed at func I found myself logged out, and when I wanted to log back in I got this warning in Firefox (and my OS is up to date, including Firefox):

This connection is not secure. Logins entered here could be compromised

So far I've got this warning only here. And I'm scared to log back in now. Should I be? 

I get that warning every time I try to login with 1Password. 

It's a new warning in Firefox, but nothing has actually changed -- func doesn't use https so passwords are not sent encrypted over the Internet. This has been true since the beginning. However, the password is only sent once and then func uses a cookie to keep you logged in. The contents of the cookie are hashed. Long story short, this is not a super secure website so don't use the same password here as your bank account etc. 

func doesn't use https
Any specific reason why not? 

It used to cost money to get a HTTPS certificate, although services like Let's Encrypt seem to have done away with that hurdle. Still, it's another thing about the site that has to be maintained and set up... 

there's a bug with creating new user accounts since the server upgrade. (gives an error and fails.) I'm investigating it now. 

 

"register account" should work now. The problem was the new version of mysql didn't allow dates of 0000-00-00, which func was using as a default for some fields. Changed it to 1000-01-01 which works again. 

what about already registered accounts? I'm registered as DelusionalBear, can't login still, gives me an error: "ERROR: Login failure. Check your spelling and try again." 

There is no user by that name. perhaps you registered during the time that registration process was broken? Anyway, try registering again. 

yep! it works! thanks 

Forwarded you an email which is beyond my capabilities. 

Anyone else getting slower than usual page load times for the site, or is it just my Australian™ Internet acting up the past few days?

but I also thought it was maybe Australian internet... 

If you are on windows, try in command line:

tracert celephais.net

...and you'll see what bottleneck you have on your road to func_msgboard :)

I feel like it's a commentary on my university studies that I'm currently learning a CCNP subject and I don't really know how to use tracert properly yet.
I guess Telstra is having trouble connecting to Germany though...

If any identifying information about me has leaked with this screenshot, please don't use it to hack into my house or anything like that :( 

It kinda bounce between servers in Hong Kong - lol weird :D 

I have problem like this though: http://imgur.com/a/MJuwW

Every time I post, I get mixture of CSS/JSON and other shit, instead of proper site view.
If I refresh this, it will post reply again.
I have to go to main page and load thread again, to see my reply.
