I did some more changes to the board. Particularly in the way e-mail unvalidated users are handled. before they couldn't create a new post but could reply to any existing thread. This was a mistake on my part when I initially set up the forums Since spambots love to spam in threads as well as create them. So now I've limited unvalidated post and thread creation to the bluecrimson support forum only. That way, if a validation problem occurs a legitimate user can post there to resolve the issue. Just as before, I verified all existing unverified accounts in the system, so this shouldn't be a problem for any existing user.
We're also running some patched code to fix a obscure login bug, which comes with new features, like the "What's happening" section. |
