I really have to agree to Luigi. PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT COULD EFFECTIVELY HAPPEN IF THE OLD RULES WOULD STILL APPLY!!! We lose our source of income and xentax will eventually die. I'm sorry if it's somewhat inconvenient to have to ask for samples, but publicly peddling illegal goods is not logically n...

We don't want copyrighted files on this forum. Deal with it offsite.

Who told u i dont own the game ????? I hope this was some kind of joke u just mention in here. So u can directly shut this forum down if you dont even allow to talk about warez.(in this case we are not). My point is 99% of all posts it it all about talking about illegal things if you like it or not...

Check out Vanilla instead.

Looks interesting. Thanks for the tip.

MyBB doesn't seem good from a security perspective, there have been tons of security vulnerabilities found in it and even recently. Ugh I don't like to hear that, but thanks for the heads up. What's worse: the templating system is database only so I can't use an IDE to speed up development. Why do ...

I'm looking at mybb.

I looked at his history and banned him on sight.

Lives, work, other stuff to do. A migration is never clean and quite an intensive process.

edit: after my recent experiences with phpbb, I am seriously entertaining the thought of migrating though. Hacking phpbb is bad for my mental health.

That would be a likely explanation. It's definitely not a project I would want to contribute to.

Also, should we [s]have an open invitation for an outright "this forum is better than that" flamewar[/s] start taking suggestions for better forum software?

Migrating the forum is unfortunately not an option for us at this point in time.

It is impossible to work with phpbb. It has a cache that you need to clear twice before your changes become viewable. There isn't an option to disable caching, so development becomes an unnecessary pain in the ass. "Plugins" are all core hacks that overwrite key files, just like they used ...

I talked to someone who has experience with this type of thing and have plastered some key areas with Google text ads. Only for non-registered users of course. I have good expectations, but we'll see.

As an aside, this required a core hack in phpbb, which is completely ridiculous.

Damn, that recaptha still does not keep out those fuckers. I'm guessing they are human trash, though. I will try and get that sortable captcha thing in, though I doubt it will keep out the human scum. Installed a better sortables captcha. The other one was half baked and buggy. As an aside, phpbb h...

That will do.

We do actually have a favicon, as seen on http://www.xentax.com - http://www.xentax.com/favicon.ico , but it hasn't been readded to the forum or wiki since we were attacked a few months back (and I'm not sure if it was created specifically for XeNTaX or picked up from somewhere, since I've seen it ...
