Dear all, As you may know, this forum is widely abused by spam-bots. Since this week I've changed the way users are registered: they have to be approved by me know. This works almost perfectly to keep away the spam on the board, however I'm forged to approve about 50+ users a day now. This is unacceptable for me, since its really time absorbing. The only way out of this spam-bot hell is to move to another forum-platform. For me the obvious choice is yaf (yey another forum). This is an open source forum coded in the language I use for work (C# ASP.NET). If needed I can change this forum to our needs and can even create extra anti-bot code! The new forum is also faster and you can upload files and some more improvements. Now for the bad part: I've looked into ways to convert the messages from the current forum to this new forum and even though I have years of experience (maybe because I've years of experience) I'm only converting the users to this new board and NOT the messages! The messages are just too much work for me to handle as a single person and I simply don't have the time to create nice scripts. The change will be like this: * The new forum will be available at: Welcome to the DMT-Nexus you can logon using the same credentials as you use on the old forum * The link of the old forum will be redirected to the new forum * The old forum will be locked in place and will stay available to view on a read only basis at http://www.dmt-nexus.me/oldforum * The current moderators will be moderators of the whole forum This change will happen at further notice. Kind regards, The Traveler
