Upgrade

[ASMO]

I have taken the liberty of upgrading our entire hosting platform so we are on higher end servers, unlimited storage and much more bandwidth, hopefully this will mitigate any future performance issues.

Cheers ASMO, quality service and comms as always.

Hi mate, I got a warning about my password being compromised on the site last night, should I be worried or is it just one of those things?

And thank you, legend.

Thanks, ASMO, you are a star

Hampster needs a kicking, site performance is very sluggish

[ASMO]

Already on it, but thanks for the report

[ASMO]

Apologies for the site performance, had an influx of bots for some reason, i am trying to block them but its just like playing whack a mole, got to be a bit careful with wildcard IP bans as that can have some unwanted consequences if i get it wrong (Enzedders knows this :-) )

Can you block IP address from a whole country, like Ireland ?

Yes, geoblocking is a thing

Yes, geoblocking is a thing

I meant for individual readers of forums, so you wouldn’t have to read all their shite ?

Yes to that too, but even the most ardent window licker can work out how to use a VPN and get around that.

ASMO - every time I click on the "Stop voting for Tories" Thread, it always goes to page 534 - none of the other threads do this.

Any idea?

It happens to all of us. That thread has dropped everyone circa 4 pages back since around page 380 / 12 months ago.

Odd, it doesn't do that for me, is this a thread you are following?

[Insane_Homer]

It seems to happen when you get a reply noticifcation in the thread and click that link in the notification.

[ASMO]

Makes sense then, if you are asking to be notified of a reply it will naturally take you to the page where the reply is on

Jesus, I must have been drunk when I asked for a Notification on that shithouse thread!!

Not quite, I have no active subscription to the thread or any post therein. The notification is the standard one for someone quote replying to one of your posts.

for example, you quote replied to me on that thread on 2 May. When I click the notification it goes to page 531 of the thread regardless, there is no post by me or reply to me anywhere on page 531. Your post reply to me is on page 536.

I'm the same, and have been for yonks. Anytime I go into the tories thread, it takes me to the fifth from last page. Not subscribed to anything, only thread it happens on. Not a big deal, I'm assuming it's because the tories live in the past anyway.

It did that to me for a while. Doesn't anymore
