If you look on your account page, you will see that there are two new features to play with.

First, you have the choice of whether you want your func homepage to be the news page or the forum page. This means when you come to www.celephais.net/board/ and you're already logged in, it will display the page of your choice. (Logged out people still see the news page.)

Second, you have three choices for how to display your email address on the user details page (that's the page you see when you click on someone's name in a post, or on the "people" page.) You can have it displayed as a clickable mailto link (as it is currently,) or you can have it displayed in munged format (joe -AT- blow -DOT- com,) or you can have it completely hidden.

I encourage all of you who have hand-munged emails in the database to update your account with your real address, and then choose "Munged" as your email display option. This way you can recieve an email when you forget your password. 

melt, here's the explanation of how to do it:

title: that's simple - just type a few spaces.

body: I typed a few spaces (not sure if it is necessary), then I opened bold tag, typed more spaces and closed the bold tag.

Then I clicked the preview button to check if it worked and voila!

I hope that will help you.

btw new features are nice 

that doesn't work for me -- what browser are you using? What javascript settings? 

Opera

All javascript settings are standard, I didn't change them 

Being able to get right to the main forum page when I log in is a cool feature - thanks! 

I just got on a half hour ago and it's been real slow here. I see several new posts all over, but getting to the sections and back takes at least a minute or more. Anyone else? 

Being able to get right to the main forum page when I log in is a cool feature - thanks!

I've had the forum page linked in my custom homepage and click it to go there, and am always logged in. Either way, 'cool' on the new features, even though I'd prefer edit function over Preview. 

wtf is it so slow right now? 

ffs. 

can we please get a set of 'please post questions on mapping or any non-debatable topic in general abuse, mapping help, or screenshots and bettas' with links to them all (would be cool to be like on the forum index to go to all posts, new posts, last 25).

will cut down on random people making new threads, us not helping them and just telling them to post elsewhere. 

can we get those on the page where you ake a new thread... 

yes, i'm planning on it. 

Func_ was down again this morning when I arrive at my office (7:30 here in France, that mean 23:30 for server...).. Was it expected, or is it again an "unwanted server-down" of the provider ??
It seems it occurs more often than before the server change... isn't it ?? What's your opinion about these minor problems ? 

is that they suck. I hope the service doesn't continue to be as spotty as it has been in the last few days. There have been no planned downtimes since the server move. 

You're right, they suck... the service they provide is not as good as we expect... Anywa, I hope, like many of us here, they will solve their fucking server stability problems in the future... 

Pinging or looking up directly via ns{1,2}.dnsjunction.com doesn't seem to work either.

Is DNS and hosting all part of the same package? 

the same company sells me hosting and dns. Whether it's the same company providing the actual services, i don't know. 

Yay. Nice one metl.

We've got FLOYD! I dig the new logo. 

 

This is Scampie, posting from another proxy our mysterious proxy poster is using, seen here:
http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=3&start=1758

This new proxy's site is:
http://anonymouse.ws

Here's a list of proxy's that someone may use and their offending IP ranges.

I suggest banning them all, or, adding code to func_ that will ensure you're posting to the board, from func, not from a site dynamically mirroring func.
