I’ve deleted the forum. I had closed new memberships to avoid spambots joining and posting, but it seems some happy bot managed to abuse the search function causing the server to overuse the database resources, so much that my host suspended my account. My bad, I should have managed the forum security better… the fact it was inactive made me let my guard down >_< The urgency of the matter made me decide to delete the forum tout-court, so I didn’t save the messages as I wanted to, although there might be some copy of the old database somewhere on my hard disk. Either way, I’m not going to reinstall a forum anywhere soon, as I don’t have time to manage it right now.
As for what concerns the site, I can only work on it seriously during holidays time… the point is that this summer I hadn’t any holidays |||OTL I hope to fix something of what needs to be fixed during Christmas break. If and only if I’ll have any break at all T______T; What needs to be fixed includes a more decent layout coding, comics sections, adjust the novels page and upload the missing fics, and the links page, which is sadly empty.
Now, if someone can manage to add 4 more hours in a day………

I’ve deleted all spam messages in the forum. The spam messages number was so high that cleaning selectively would have been an impossible work so it might have happened that some legitimate messages got lost in the process (although I tried to be as careful as possible). The same counts for user accounts created in 2009. Hundreds of spam accounts were created and I had to delete them tout court (they were actually SO many that it was impossible to delete them in bulk as the process would eat up the server’s allocated memory for my account). So, if some legitimate users joined recently, their account or posts are lost (I doubt that happened though. Just in case, if you had an account and you can’t log in, just contact me).
As I told before, I’ll most likely remove the forum if it keeps on being inactive. I’m probably going to rebuild it from the ground up and stick it to my webcomic site (leaving the old UnK posts that I could save in a closed historical archive or something) Meanwhile, I’m updating phpBB to the latest version, and close any new automatic sign up, each sign up will have to be approved by me manually.

Which doesn’t mean the site is complete, but we’re getting close XD It still needs major fixes, layout is everything but well coded (it works, but I think it’s quite an abomination to good coding xD), but at least we have some sort of layout
yay XD The 5.0 site has now enough content up to replace the old site version, although it’s not the whole content of the old site yet, I’ll slowly replace all the stuff.
The fact we’ve come to the final stage doesn’t mean it will be quick. I needed far more than a year to come to this, not counting all the time the site has had sections down after the hacking of xmgfree some years ago.
I’m thinking about removing the forum since no one is using that since a long time (except spambots, those are always active
) If you think it can be revived, let me know, I personally think it’s impossible to be saved, but who knows.
