Test Black kicks butt. I don't want my staff position back. I grew tired of constantly banning spammers. I'm sure I won't be missed much. :)
DD, is the forum using MS SQL?

Test Black kicks butt. I don't want my staff position back. I grew tired of constantly banning spammers. I'm sure I won't be missed much. :)

DD, did you see my previous post about pms? Could somebody else try to send one and see what happens?
I've gone through the first page(however many threads is the forum default) of every single forum and moved all of the ads to the trash and banned every advertising member I could see. I could have easily missed some, so I ask that if any users come across anything that they report it so I can take care of it.
Edit: Also, we should look into this.
If you'd like someone to ban spammers, I'd be happy to help out.
It would be nice to be on the other side of the ban hammer for once. :3
EDIT: Wow, Test Black takes me back. Thank you very much. My retinas thank you as well.
Well, whenever I would see posts made by spam bots in the ZC Beta Forum, I would delete those posts. Too bad I only have slight moderation power around here, seeing as there there are some moderation tools I can't use. Also, before the forums were re-installed, I often used the report button whenever I saw posts from spam bots in other forums.
No fuksin way, you got the arcade installed! :D
However, I get logged out with this message: "This score was not submitted from the game. Your score will not be saved."
Mine's not posting high scores at all. I'm thinking it has trouble with Ad-Block, but I don't know how to disable it on certain sites in Firefox 5.0.
Going to try it with add-ons disabled until I find out how to whitelist AGN.
Just kidding, it was acting funny a minute ago but now seems to work flawlessly.
I put in a fix which should get rid of the logging-out issue. For some reason it doesn't correctly show avatars when submitting scores... looking into it.
Infractions are back in, with hesitation. On the one hand, infractions are a bit bureaucratic and encourage power-tripping, but on the other hand they make it possible for all moderators to ban spambots, automates the banning/unbanning process, and makes it the bans easier to review, and these upsides probably outweigh the downsides.
I'm continuing to make tweaks to Test Black. If you notice something that looks wrong or have any suggestions about how to improve the style, please let me know.
Oh no, the arcade.... haha. Looks like I'll be busy with that. If you add Curveball, I'm going to have to reclaim my position of king at that one.
Yay, black theme! It makes me want to post again.
Yeah, the test black theme is really slick. Why not have that as the default for the benefit of new members or google-ers.
It'd be cool if we could have a number of themes like we used to. Does anyone still have the images for them?
I've disabled the default theme completely. Once I finish tweaking the black theme and debugging the arcade, I'll work on a lighter fire theme.
Any chance on looking into the comments issue with quests in the main ZC page?
I've also heard some complaining about the download link not working there too.
Also, AR-fucking-CADE!! Fucking awesome. You rock!
If people are going to keep beating my scores, I say we remove the arcade.
Oh damn. Maybe I should stop.
NOT! I'm coming for number 1!!
However, it would be nice if there were more options.
Must...be...best...in...Curveball...
Who was it that was almost better than me at that... Phattonez? He's been gone for a long time.
Oh hot damn, this is rad. This is the AGN I remember. :D I had better be able to change my custom title/signature/avatar now! Great work guys!
You have to sign in separately on zeldaclassic.com even if you've checked "remember me" on AGN... the reason is that the two sites are on different domains and thus have separate cookies. I'll look into putting in a hack so that logging in signs you in to both sites simultaneously, but I'll need some time.
Could someone spell out what else is broken on zeldaclassic.com?
As far I know,
All the comments were deleted (not sure if those can be recovered)
A few of the mirrors that the download link uses no longer work.
Those are the only ones I know of.
Cute new skin there, luv it. :)
More like, cute old school skin - back to the future for AGN!
As far as I can think of on the zeldaclassic front, it doesn't accept email from any of my other sites I visit. I can't think of anything else though.
What do you mean, exactly? The free @zeldaclassic.com email address can't receive mail?
Not that it will make much of a difference as they are likely to never return, but infraction for spam bans seem to lift after just over a year as opposed to never.
Does anyone else get an "invalid redirect url" error after logging in? Also, selecting "remember me" doesn't work. I have to login every time I visit.
Am I the only one?
DD,
None of the Quest Database managers can post in the ZC Site Development Forum.
Also, none of our avatars are showing up on the Forum Leaders page and our titles are missing.
I think it's due to using www before the url. If you just try http://armageddongames.net, it seems to work fine.
Thanks, Darkdragon. This helps a lot. Tomorrow, if rocksfan hasn't done so already, I'll post an update to the QDB log (I sent it to him previously, so we'll see.)
...what? Why's everyone looking at me funny?
Is there a way to see the comments people left when they gave reputation, and if not, will there ever be?
I think that's a vBulletin default feature. It should be able to be easily turned on or off.
Old-Skool, what is that thing next to your pips? :p http://armageddongames.net/images/ranks/QDBManager.gif Ah, QDB Manager. Neat.
I've fixed the ZC mirror links, and restored as many of the quest comments as possible... some of the newer quests' comments are gone for good, sadly. I also wrote a script to search the zeldaclassic.com files for attack and backdoor scripts left by the Russian hackers... there were still a few that turned up.
For some reason I must have forgotten to turn this on for Mods & Senior Mods. Everyone should be able to see who left rep now.
I'll tweak the cookie settings; clear your cookies and try again logging in, and let me know if the problem persists.
For the next 7 days I'll be out of town attending a conference in Vancouver; please keep reporting problems here, though I may not be able to get to them immediately.
Spiffy Cucco.
Hey, can the History link on zeldaclassic.com link to Shardstorm? I've been updating the changelog up until... well, 2008 or so. Looks like they were all deleted, anyway.
Just an idea.
Maybe add 2.10.2 to the downloads page?
Since we're telling people to grab that for VISTA and Windows 7, might be a good idea to put it there instead of them searching the forums to find it.
