I fixed a long-standing issue related to database encoding which was resulting in some old posts to not display. The fix was quite invasive, so let me know if you see any issues.

Incidentally, one of the posts which was previously not displaying is this handy guide - https://tulpanetwork.com/network/8/how-to-forum/ - which explains a few of the forum's mods. You all know about subaccounts already, but the BBCode tags might be news. (Currently the 'hide' BBCode button doesn't display on non-default themes, but now you know how to write the tags, so no need for that I guess).

This has been done now. Let me know if you see any issues.

I will be upgrading the SMF version at some point over the next couple of days. This should cause minimal disruption, but in the event that I hit a snag and have to roll back the site may be down for a short time.

Welcome. Ten, those are rookie numbers...

People can be fairly opinionated. But you know what's best for you. So keep on tulping.

Puppeting can be alright, I think if it's more an attitude of imagining what they would do. Not sure how things are going for you guys now - my usual advice is to not constrain interaction to set 'forcing' times, but to narrate etc., but you might be already doing that.

Also, welcome. Like Bernd said this place can be quiet but there are people here. I do enjoy reading the few PRs here once in a while, even if I don't drop by super often. And sorry about not being able to register, that was a result of my incompetence.

That's a hell of a dream. I always wanted to star in a horror movie. As for what goes on in the shack we share in the back woods of Rizon, I couldn't tell you. Though if you'd like, I can make an account for you on the bouncer I run on this server and you can connect through that.

Sands and I hadn't been paying much attention to this place in the last while, and the spambot problem was getting kind of bad. So, a couple of things.
  • I've added stricter registration requirements - in particular, you need to verify emails. Sorry, it's not fun, but it helps.
  • I've cleaned up a lot of spambot posting on the forum. They should be all gone. In many cases I bypassed the usual 'move to deleted posts' procedure and deleted things directly; it's just much faster that way.
  • I've deactivated (i.e., they will need email activation) accounts in a large time range. If you're a human and you're being told you need to activate your account, that'll be it. Again it's actually just a lot easier to do than banning bots outright.

I'm hoping that these things will keep things a bit cleaner for a while. With that said, I'm not really going to be paying a whole lot more attention than before. If you're interested, I'm sure Sands and I would be amenable to a few people who actually use this place to become moderators and keep things tidy themselves. In the meantime, the best way to reach me on this forum is on IRC - I'm on Rizon, with (currently) the nick nyaffles. You can PM me but I never really check those.

I forgot to renew the domain name, so it temporarily lapsed. Everything should be fine now.

... I moved the forum back to Ramnode because Dedi was being very unreliable. Things should all work as before; tell me if anything doesn't. There might be a few messages lost since the last successful backup was on the 14th, thanks to the unreliability.

I think your standards of "obvious" differ from mine. You can usually tell by the ICQ number ... always knew timethief was a bot.

I moved the forum to a new server. Bye Ramnode, hello DediStation. Things should be pretty much the same, they might be a bit snappier. Tell me if anything breaks.
This also means working SSL for everyone, yay.

Should it be "100%ed"? Using percentages as verbs, wow. Future English is gonna be neat.

Damn, forcing as a full-time job.  Careful you don't force too much, or you'll ascend to the spirit realm not really.
