Welcome back everyone
-
I didn’t get any re-set emails and had to use the question. - to get back in.
-
The passwords have not been reset and SMF offers no function to force people to do this.
What I could do is scramble all the passwords forcing people to use the password reset function.
-
welcome back and good to be back and password change…
we should be also looking for possible phishing emails… and i was reading this article in a french news paper on cryptolockers
who block your computer and ask for bitcoins to unlock it… -
Yay !!!
Thanks for all your hard work guys, I’ve been a little lost over the last day or so.
UM
-
Well, I was able to come back ;)
-
So good to be back, I missed you Feathercoin Community :)
Great Job getting back online sounded like a monumental task, big pats on the backs of all involved, I was expecting to be twiddling my mouse cable for at least a week. It should be a message to all of how dedicated our Dev team is.

I use PHPbb, can’t help but feel it’s lagging behind others in terms of features these days though.
[/quote]What other ones do you like?
[/quote]I’d guess the truth is that doesn’t really matter, and I know that’s a bit of a cop out, I think ultimately the requirements of this forum are very different from most others forums. The ‘shoe and shoe polish appreciation’ forum, for example, might prize the ability to post and host media over forum security and uptime. I think that anecdotal evidence from anyone of reliability is going to be useless.
There’s two things that spring to my mind, which is the ‘most secure’ out of the box and which has the most vanilla features that we ‘need’ (to prevent the need for additional mods creating security holes). Forget pretty haha.
But we could pick the most secure package available, whilst it would seem that it’s the forum that had the weakness, it still worries me that I’ve read elsewhere that ‘not all packages’ were up to date. I understand how easy it is to let these things slide, but if the community is one of the most prized features of the FeatherCoin, then it must have all it’s bases covered as a priority. :)
Perhaps we could also benefit from a ‘disaster plan’, so that you can respond to these problems quickly whilst singing form the same hymn sheet? Things have been handled ok all in all, and you don’t need me to tell you, the forum should have been pulled and shutdown much earlier pending enquiry. :D

It’s nice to be back.

Guess who is back , back again :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVkUvmDQ3HY

I have posted an update here.http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=7031.msg53583#msg53583
Moving to VBulletin would be a good option as it is more actively developed though it is commercial. Not sure that I would rate phpBB any higher than SMF.
[/quote]Surely, we can get donations from the community to purchase VBulletin? I don’t have much to offer but I’d be willing. It wouldn’t take much from each person if a bunch of us chipped in :D
-
I’d gladly contribute :D

[/quote]I’ve already offered a licence for vbulletin 3.x and 4.0 that I don’t need anymore I’m really hoping they will take me up on it. Its not the newest version but many huge boards are still on 3.x and they are quick with security patches even for older versions

Hi!
-
If bushstar or someone just pm’s me with some details I’ll get it transferred this evening.
-
Good to be back :)
-
As long as we are looking into changing forum engines and site redesigning, having dedicated and branded Feathercoin Forum apps would be awesome and should help lend credibility to our community.
edit:
I say this fully realizing that I have no idea how hard that would be and that I couldn’t help… -
Hello, have missed you all :)
