LOL. Looks like Craptain was (always wanted an excuse to use that smilie...)

Good to finally have it back (and for a bit of shameless strutting ( :disturbed: ), you can all thank me that the restored version is as new as it is (which is to say, mid-2008); otherwise, the restored version would have been one from 2007). So, any contingency plans to make sure this (as in, havin...

As I understand it, the wiki attack was unrelated to the forum/website one; it was just a matter of unfortunate timing. At any rate, MediaWiki has always been quite hardened against attacks (it has to be, to be good enough for one of the Top Ten websites); I suspect (having absolutely no data to act...

We're waiting on Craptain for that. He has "kind of a one-track mind", so it could be a while yet.

Personally, I found it far less biased than anything else I've ever read on the subject. Anything in particular that you would say made you think it was biased?

Cool, will this be the first release written after switching languages?

A phpBB 3 forum I administrate uses ReCAPTCHA; it does a great job of keeping the spambots out while letting humans in (and has the added bonus of helping to digitize old texts).

A couple years ago, actually. Mr.Mouse just never took the opportunity to share it until now.

I don't suppose anyone got a copy of the wiki page before the DB corruption, did they? I didn't have the foresight to save an offline copy, Google didn't seem to cache the page, and I'd really prefer not to redo that work.

Yep, I was being serious about the "of course" thing. Hooray for anonymizing text with no vocal tones or body language!

Of course! *facepalms*

Always wondered how "Xentax" was pronounced... I've always imagined it something like "zeentax".

Funny stuff. Whose voice?

And now, a series of questions to bug you with. =D I intend to do a final release based on the current code in the near future and then move on to a another language. Does that mean you'll be rewriting the program in another language, or will you be dropping MexCom development (for a while, at least...

More likely, it's somebody who's had a bad experience on the forums here; there's been more than one extremely messy banning just in the time I've been around.

Yesterday the Game File Format Central was attacked. We are working to fix that one as well. Seems we either have some enemies, or these bots get advanced. In any event, I hope those who are responsible, either for creating the bots or for directing a targeted attack die in the most horrible way po...
