Site up, lost some user accounts, Linux has to wait

Posted: Wed May 07, 2003 2:38 am

After much hard crashing on the server, the forum user database table got corrupted. I recovered what I can, but around 11 user accounts was lost. Sorry. If you can't login to the forum anymore, please re-register. This shouldn't happen again once I move the database to the new harddrive with NTFS.

The motherboard _seems_ to be fixed, no guarantee for uptime yet. I was able to test the site under Linux again, and I did some tests. The performance gain is around 10%, so I decided it's too much trouble for what it's worth. I will eventually move the site to Linux once I find a dedicated server for it. Or when I can afford it (hint hint)

The bot is back up with some bug fixes. New code now lets you directly opt-in and opt-out of isoHunt, details here . A major bummer is the bot often comes when the fserve owner is not available to respond with a CTCP command, and I can't have the bot simultaneously be at all channels at all times to take commands.

The solution is make an "on join" event for the indexer's nick (IH-beta) and /ctcp him with your choice. I may write a tutorial once i have time. Yeah, this is getting annoying, blah blah.

But the CTCP commands are working as far as I can tell, so I'm not accepting anymore opt-out requests on this forum. Any requests must be done over IRC, as much as you might not like it.
