He won't be able to receive the e-mail notifying him of his newly generated password.

That is extremely good to hear.

Anatoly, the captcha is merely a standard captcha type setup, as you can see here: http://forums.bauchan.org/testforum/mods/contact.php

I believe it was derived from Mediators? captcha mod which is listed on here and PunRes.

and this is the code I use on my current 1.2* derived setup for the SpamHaus check:

function rblcheck()
{
        $rblserver = array();
        $rblserver[] = 'sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org';

        $fip = get_remote_address();
        $rip = implode('.', array_reverse(explode('.', $fip)));

        foreach ($rblserver as $xrbl)
        {
                $rblcheck = $rip.'.'.$xrbl;

                if ($rblcheck != gethostbyname($rblcheck))
                {
                        $page_title = pun_htmlspecialchars($pun_config['o_board_title']);
                        message('Your I.P address: ('.$fip.') is blocked due to it being listed in the following database: <br/><br/>[ $xrbl ]');
                }
        }
}

That merely checks the users I.P address against any RBL servers you specify in the $rblserver array.

I appreciate why you use the word tomorrow, and also the fact that we all have personal lives to attend to, but what I was specifically referring to is the fact that you do appear to use the word tomorrow rather than just unacknowledged. All previous instances where I can remember seeing that word being used haven't had the stated follow up done 'tomorrow', unless I've overlooked them.

Btw, I'll refrain from adding any more off-topic posts to this thread now.

Nope. Neither. Pure and simple reason is that I'm not planning on migrating/updating to the 1.3 branch, so haven't bothered looking at how the new extension system works. I have no need yet, personally.

I'm quite willing to pass my 1.2* code on to anyone who may have an interest in porting any of my mods, however.

Anatoly means what features do you require in the mod specifically? i.e: do you just want a captcha, do you want something like Sirena's mod with the questions etc.

Scott. Hate is not a factor. It is pure and utter frustration and annoyance in regards to their 'stomp on everything attitude' whilst at the same time ignoring everything which they cannot see a direct commercial benefit from. They appear to have found a fast method to stomp on every accepted aspect of what Open Source infers in one fell swoop on this board.

Truth be told, I'm coming to the conclusion that they are purposefully trying to drive everyone away from this board so that the FluxBB board will take on the responsibility of helping users whilst this company just continues using the Flux code as is with their expansions chucked in as a commercial product.
Call me a pessismistic devil, but they appear to be trying to keep their cake whilst eating it, i.e: minimal amount of core coding, (if any at all), no user support and commercial gain from least work required.

When? The RC download still has the copyright violation, judging by the quick look I just had.

Most likely CSS related, as that is what controls the placement of those areas.

That is what I would prefer to do too, to keep helping, (where possible), on both boards. However, the fact that Anatoly is the only dev/mod who shows even the slightest interest on here, and the fact that any questions they don't like regarding their intentions or pretty much anything relating to PunBB they don't deem worthy to answer are just being completely ignored is becoming more than merely irksome now. (It's getting on my tits big style, to be truthful).

I can see perfectly Jeremie's point of, (to put it bluntly), letting this place kill itself. That will eventually not be to the detriment of the users, but rather to their benefit, in the long run. The other board will not be short of technical help for users if they decide to ask on the forum where they are actually going to get useful help.

It's just the fact that this is the PunBB board that makes it so hard to make that break. But, at the end of the day, a name is merely a name.

The original copyright note as well as the new authors/editors copyright have to be in the source files or supplied with the source. Some use a single copyright file, some incorporate it into each file. Removal is an infringement.

The visibly displayed copyright that you tend to see at the bottom, (with the vanity icons, if any), can be a bit of a grey area. Removal of it is always poor form, but not necessarily an infringement. However, a lot of authors/copyright holders do insist that the publically displayed copyright has to remain in place as part of their licence. I believe Coppermine is one such software that specifies that prerequisite, (off the top of my head), but there are plenty more that do so too.

I believe the above is correct, even allowing for my shonky memory.

Must admit, I wasn't expecting them to say bugger all. I realised, once they ignored this thread:

http://punbb.informer.com/forums/viewto … 05#p115505

that they have sod all intention of being forthright on here.

Call me pessimistic, but I have zero trust or faith in them. I think I'm going to follow Jeremie's advice and just start ignoring this place full stop, (once I manage to resist the temptation to check back here). It's akin to flogging a dead horse on here now, in my personal opinion.
