    Tapatalk Enabled for Cellphones

    INTPForum has now been linked to Tapatalk . This is an app for optimizing forums for cellphones; it works on Android and Apple and costs about $3 --- but will display any forum accessed through it. There will be blood may be ads * There is a Tapatalk Forum to which any questions should...

    Forum Hack

    The vBull remains the same version, just the four mods were updated. And I can't see any point in going to vBull 4 or 5, when it would be cheaper to go to something else such as XenForo --- and prolly a damn sight more secure. A forum conversion is not on the cards right now because of a/...

    Forum Hack

    They already had the vulnerable information, which was a leak in the Arcade software which enabled some person to publish the hashes of admin access on the internet, which meant the hackers could change some stuff temporarily. They weren't interested in member information --- hackers don't...

    Forum Hack

    Well, thank them for me. Not for the hack; but for being OK afterwards. :D:D The Arcade has been updated, but now I don't trust it anyway.

    Forum Hack

    Well, something went wrong: Five modifications needed updating, but one the translator of yore was long gone: so 4: updated them and added Tapatalk, and I couldn't post... Uninstalled Tapatalk, same thing. Turned off 2 of them just upgraded ( template modification & advanced user tagging )...

    Forum Hack

    Strange, and slightly peculiar. Hostspy is down at this moment, so I can't see anything about it; but the ip is nearly the same as this one's. It is as if our hosts have released an old back-up into the wild blue yonder. Which is unlikely --- however I can't see why anyone would waste...

    Forum Hack

    I'm looking into it; and have turned the place back on for now. Not having been here I don't know what the symptoms were, but turning the forum off was absolutely the right thing to do. There seems no evidence left in the back-end: but it gave us a chance to repair the database.

    Back Online

    Adblock helps quite a bit so maybe I would never have seen them. Here's a list of ( previous ) exploits, no point in censoring it since if I can find it anyone can. http://www.exploitsdownload.com/search?q=vBulletin+version+3.8.7 If wondering why still using the 3.x.x series; plenty of...

    Back Online

    Not sure what happened, nor what kind of ads were there ---- ads, like most of unrestrained capitalism as an economic system are fairly evil, and also deeply silly * ---- but I've replaced the vbulletin files up to the latest patch, upgraded and done maintenance. Not clear yet. If was a...

    A few more Arcade games

    Around 100 flash games have been added to the Arcade. I shouldn't like to estimate their worth, as I rarely indulge in that sort of thing. Anyway, there are now 985 of these things. For those interested, games are downloaded from ibpArcade forum --- 14 a day limit on the free account...

    Private IP Registry

    That could be useful. Although to be fair, were such things to be then the censoring would only apply to US citizens: however, one of the troubles the rest of the world has is that the USA doesn't really recognize other jurisdictions and insists --- in a rather world-communistic way, part of...

    Move to New Server Complete

    As was previously intimated the forum was to move to a new server sometime, and this was now done; however due to some strange oversight they neglected to remove the 'Moving' notice, or it took three days, or something inexplicable, so we've been off-air that time. During the hour between my...

    No More Flags or Ribbons

    INTPFORUM down since 25th november

    Today I was told the above news. Having contacted the hosts, they said: "...the forum was placing an excessively high load on the server and causing slowness for other sites on the server. We have a solution and would like permission to move it to a new server that we're just bringing...

    Temporary Suspension

    The Forum appears to have been suspended since the 2nd. This was due to a DCMA take-down notice served on our hosts by vBulletin ( formerly Jelsoft, now Internet Brands ) which assumed this was a copyright infringement since they could not find the license details in their records. Having...

    THE FORUM WILL BE OFF-LINE FOR HALF-AN-HOUR

    To restore an missing Database the hosts will take the Forum off-line for a short while. Probably any time from 1.30 am GMT to 3.30 am GMT. An hour from now to two hours from now. Enjoy your coffee.

    Any members who return will have noted that after the running out of bandwidth to the 1st, the site went offline at 9am GMT on the 2nd. Nor was cPanel or FTP accessible. Numerous ticket alerts went out; but only today after trying another support center was the matter resolved. As can be...

    Over Bandwidth to New Year

    Some members may have noticed we were unavailable for the whole of the 31st Dec. We had finally hit our bandwidth maximum for the month. A ticket was sent in on 2am GMT to Technical Support asking for a few more GB to carry us over to now. By 12pm this was unanswered, so it was upgraded and...

    sad smiley

    *reasonably* To grant you this wish would mean inflicting the antique smilies of yesteryear upon the whole forum. However, should you find some unrepellent yellow smilies that Anthile approves a few might be added, yet not in the posting box but in the extended selection. As to remaining in...

    sad smiley

    Nope. The vbull defaults are inartistic. Any other smilies can be suggested, however adding smilies is one of the least pleasing admin duties and can cause the less stable to run amok, slaughtering passersby. Make your own, place them on a server somewhere and hotlink them. Why is that...

    There is a stickie for this, you know... Anyway, these are links from the Green Smilies site, which saves having to upload them when they might never be used. Say if any represent your wish, or go to http://www.greensmilies.com/smilie-album/traurig-schuechtern-smilies/...

    Flashchat

    The previous and initial chat was Tufat's FlashChat --- a proprietary script from Darren's $5 Script Archive. Thus, it wasn't vBulletin specific nor an official Hack from vBulletin.org; although it was integrated with the forum with a Hack from there made for FlashChat. Sadly, by 2009 one...

    Going Rogue : Report on The Incident of the 31st of January

    Not really, Administrator lightspeed is tracking the IPs etc., but all records after 07.43AM GMT have naturally been overwritten by the 07.40 AM back-up which replaced the false forum.* Some appreciation of the hosts would be nice: they put in --- labour for some hours --- a back-up that...

    Renew Your Passwords

    All members are requested, in light of yesterday's hacking to change their passwords as soon as is convenient. It may be overkill, and the forum was reverted to before the attack, but it would be unwise not to protect your account.

    Difficulties accessing the site ?

    Smilies Wha Hæ --- Welcome Tæ Yer Gory Bed

    So simple a request is charming to grant, especially since it appears to be part of Anthile's Canon Smilies. I put it on the main bar in place of the airplane, now part of the extended Smilie set.

    Smilies Wha Hæ --- Welcome Tæ Yer Gory Bed

    Claver informs me it is Shameimaru Aya as a chimera, minus her camera. Melkor's others will be considered for the next round of Smilie Inputting when there are a few more entrants. Free Hugs is not a premise this forum can endorse. Nor ever will. You will either way. *shrugs*
