I can't report FegenordWen and heerbathy's posts, there's no "Report" button...
Let's kill them all!

phpBB has clearly been compromised, I'm going to look into more security :).

I'll tell you, last night was pretty awesome. They were at it when I started my project, and still at it like five hours later.

Even if it's "drawing attention to something small (it's to the post and not the whole topic" - please press the report button. I'm looking for the user to begin with. I just need one post of theirs to get their info - I ban them and then I delete them and the delete feature has a wonderful "do you want to delete all posts made by this person?" feature. So topic or single post works fine.


:P I blame you guys for complaining to begin with. Everything was fine until you were like "oooh... three posts is SO not fine." Now they are barraging us. XD

It's the reason why I broke the images earlier. New security software required me to flush the cache but that seemed to kill the imageset... which I wasn't expecting...

Basically tumblr has been used in loads of spam lately so one of the 5 anti spam sites we fees from has put an automated block up.

I've put a request in to unblock it.

Joys of poor countried being paid to spam :(.
