RE: "View New Posts" is broken?

Humm, I seem to have the opposite issue: view new posts works for me just fine, but all the other places tell me I'd have already read everything. I don't know if I have the energy to figure out these issues right now. It probably has something to do with the new spam protection in one way or another.

Plans for a mobile/responsive site

Just to let you know that I've started to work on a generic MyBB theme that looks exactly like the current one on desktop, but will also work nice on other situatation such as phone, tablet or even print. Once that theme is complete I can make a custom variation of it for Maaya's as well. I don't kn...

RE: Forum (MyBB) updates

There have been a few spam accounts. Removed those and banned a few email domains.

If you see spammers just hit REPORT next to a post to make it a bit easier to track the spam.

RE: Forum (MyBB) updates

Thanks! It really looks like we're on the safe side for now. The only thing missing are new members and maybe a few other veterans coming back :) I added Google Analytics tracking which I hope helps a bit in giving perspective on how many true visitors we have. It looks like there is always 10+ gues...

RE: Thread for people who aren't cool enough to post in...

I've been quite absent lately. By lately I could say past few years really. I've done some minimal stuff every now and then, but not as much as I should have, I guess. Haven't even kept all that well up with new Maaya stuff, still haven't heard what is on the latest single for example. So that makes...

Can't login? As if your account doesn't exist?

Yesterday I removed a lot of accounts, including almost all zero poster accounts. However I made a backup of all those accounts so it is possible for me to restore any account.

If you want your account restored you can tell about it here, via private message, or simply re-register yourself.

RE: Maaya magazine scans & graphic advertisements

I'd say the removing process took something between 2 and 3 hours. I didn't really look at the clock. MyBB even bugged on me, I selected the users in the software's checkbox table but when I ran it it only removed 9 users (out of the 1300 I had selected). Luckily Firefox didn't lost the selections w...

RE: Forum (MyBB) updates

Np :)

Also so far so good: none of the old spammer registration "protections" are in use and still no new bot registration. I hope things stay this way! Because if that changes then my only resort is to do what I did with phpBB2 back in the day: write a custom protection.

RE: Forum (MyBB) updates

Removed 1300 spam users. Yeah, you read that right. Also probably removed some real users, but it is quite a task to go through every single user with thought. I sent mail to every user as a reminder of this forum's existence and I hope we see some more activity in the nearest future! Maaya is still...

RE: Forum (MyBB) updates

I have changed the spam protection methods in use. We no longer have a CAPTCHA because CAPTCHA never works. Instead we now have some lovely registration questions related to Maaya-sama. I tried to keep them cryptical enough for any bot to guess them right, but easy enough for any Maaya fan to answer...

RE: There is a new design

Oh. Oops. I didn't mean to switch everyone to the new style when I set the default theme. Oh well, use the above instruction if you want to use the earlier theme.

RE: 8th Original Album: Singer-songwriter + LIVE TOUR 2013 "Roots of SSW"

That it is, I've been occasionally around reading stuff. It is hard to give time to all the interests that I have. I landed a new job that instead of draining my energy is likely to keep me in a much better mood. Instead of driving a forklift and solving daily practical issues in a storehouse I'll b...
