Supertom Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Hi all, Whatifmodelers.com is currently down due to a database crash. I've done a partial repair and am working on upgrading the forum database to match the server database. This might take a while. I apologize for the inconvenience!

Supertom Posted October 14, 2011 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 Oops, that took faster than I thought. Funny, took me 30 minutes of tinkering around, and as soon as I decided to post this notice my next fix resolved the issue in 5 seconds! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Diamondback Six Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Another WIFMod member was just asking on my behalf (I have a CH-53E-turned-super-Hind in prebuild plan that oughtta be right up the forum's alley), and told they closed membership due to spam issues. Supertom, I mod a cardmodel forum that used to have some major spam problems ourselves, and if y'all are interested I'd be glad to put you in touch with admin over there to tell you how we did it.

Supertom Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hi Diamondback, I would be most interested! Currently the issue is that the spammers have defeated our CAPTCHA system. I'm looking into getting a new one and possibly switching forum software entirely but it'll be a long-term project. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
