Sitting-Duc

It was recently set to member only as it was being abused. I have set some additional permissions on it so registered users with a higher post count can use it. Duc

OK themes have been restored however I have had to do it from scratch so there may be tweaks that we had made that are now lost. I am migrating all of the images over from the backup at the moment as well, this will take a considerable amount of time. Duc

Yes the redirect was affected but it should be working now. It will need to be changed as well though. Duc

Hi All, The website has had some issues for the past few days which have got worse and worse. I do not know the exact problem but it's been there for a while. The Windows updates started to refuse to install and fail followed by the whole system being sluggish even when nothing was running on it. Earlier tonight it essentially gave up completely and I was unable to restore the service. I have needed to migrate the website temporarily to a cloud provider to get some time to figure out the fix properly. It seems to be running OK at the moment. Thanks for your patience. Duc

Hi All, Just thought I would share this as it's pretty interesting I think - I have been messing around with mapping our player locations on Google Maps, this is the view of the Call of Duty and Insurgency players over the past 20 or so hours. Interestingly the Asian and Eastern European dots only really started appearing when I added Insurgency in. World View: East USA: Europe: I'm looking forward to pulling some better analytics out to see what countries prefer which games and which servers we run. Duc

I'm cool with any location, just want it to be somewhere new Duc

It wasn't tested on all the themes apparently.. *cough* @Ruggerxi *cough*

It's not real... so can't be 'cashed' out..

Personally I dislike the birthday posts because I see no sincerity. I have removed many happy birthday topics that members have made for people we have banned, people that are dead or people that have not been on the website in years. People spam a 'happy birthday' response on posts for people they do now know.. nothing 'wrong' with that but I see no point - could have just 'liked' it instead. Ah well.. does no harm I guess. Duc

Should we then dictate Steam vs Origin? what games to play? There will never be one option that pleases all you idiots......

That's a pretty good theory... The question is are the UX designers putting them in because they have already been brainwashed into thinking it's 'normal' or because they are being asked to do so?

Don't really care what members do... but you're an admin and as such you have a responsibility to protect your elevated privileges on the website and servers. We place trust in you to do that and provide security tools to help with that. You shit on that trust and promote bad practices. I have no time for people who do not take the security of our server estate seriously. Crap like this is what makes it worthwhile. Like, really.

OK so that's probably it.. if the website has no way to recognise you then in it's 'eyes' you are coming from a different device each time. No worries then it's not a bug and working as expected. Duc

OK so to confirm.. you keep logging out and then in @Hunter? Duc

Do you keep logging out and then in? If it's incorrectly reporting it provide me some additional details and I'll raise a bug with the supplier. Duc

Thought we had got rid of you x

That's a shame...

lol that's a bit shit..

Unless it's happening for everyone (which I imagine it isn't). Probably your client having an issue.. going black I would be inclined to say graphics? does it recover after or do you have to restart? Duc

This feature hasn't changed nor do you receive an notification when someone ignores you. @Angelz that is a status update not a notification. As in they wrote it not the system.

So we haven't actually changed the CA or certificate setup.. that was a straight copy/paste from the old server. Have you always been able to connect on your phone? Could be that the certificate chaining setup has changed.. will ponder.

I meant.. you put that message quoting an error message that was about permissions. What version of Android? Looks good here: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=www.xtremeidiots.com and we haven't altered the certificates.

Hang on.. so you're saying you are getting the quoted error on all devices?

XI has lots of websites
