My Sincere Apologies!

revhtree · Mar 12, 2009

I am very sorry for the site problems tonight. We are going to upgrade our server as this seems to be the issue. Thanks for hanging in here with us. I hate it more than you know..

It will be all good soon though I promise.

Nice job Rev, if you ever are stuck and you have some question, How To's, let me know. I do this stuff for a living and i know the vBulletin script.

Ldogg · Mar 13, 2009

no problem. you can never tell what's going to break with some upgrades. I run our club site on VB, and after all the tweaking i have done, I am scared to upgrade from 3.6.8. I'm an infrastructure guy, not a developer...

dang Rev,

I do not see any errors this morning. How dare you get rid of these. as a member of R2R I DEMAND you to return the errors to the site

They made the forum special

FaviaFreak · Mar 13, 2009

Hey Rev no need to apologize! it's called growing pains and it will be well for it, at least I ways asleep and dreaming about chalices when all this happend last night

Hey Rev,
I see the spammers hitting already. Check your permissions for guests, change them to limited features and make sure registration is set to be confirmed by email. Should get rid of them. I had the same issue when I changed servers. You may want to double check some of your permissions on base files and CHMOD them. When you move them some are changed to 777 for installation purposes.

Viagra peddler in full force

I got it! :crossedlips:

Edit - For clarification I got the spammer, not the Viagra!

You could also use Captcha technology. It might get annoying though, but for sure will get rid of the spam bots
