Forum-Members >:O!

[Crono]

Why is the members "section" disabled? It's so leet if it were to be enabled. That way I can contact someone without having to find their last post or something. :3!

Plus I love those top 10 spammer counts XD!

[Spark910]

I think its to protect e-mail addresses? as do these show?

[Crono]

Users can specify whether they want their emails shown or not. Plus, if it's an email issue you can get their emails by finding there posts ANYWAY.

Lag issue because the database is so big? Who knows.

I doubt that, unless this version of vBulletin uses a very very bad database query.

[Myomoto]

It's a very old version of the boards, i dunno

[zell12]

Yeah, it is an older version. But, why isnt it enabled? Steam has like 15x the amount of users on the forums and everything is enabled.

Arent there a number of hacks/exploits for version 2? Im suprised the boards arent attacked more often than they are.

Probably because our anti-graalian 'friends' would rather torture the game client instead? If they're going to try and cause upheavals then it would be best to attack the game rather than these forums. All they'll do is get the account banned or whatever.

[Crono]

Come on Unixmad :O! You're the forum owner, reeeeeeeaaaaad this.

Oh and I guess we should be able to specify whether we want to be listed in the members area too. :]

[Qwert616]

I was always under the impression that the member list (particularly the top post counts) was disabled to discourage spam.

Also note, the e-mail function and member function aren't really related. They were disabled seperately.

Who said anti graal people would do it? There are people out there who search in google for the version lines of boards they know can be hacked, and hack them just for fun

Thats what I thought also, I'm pretty sure the admins were mad when people started spamming to get onto the top 10 list (I don't think it helped when Unixmad said spam is allowed on the Not-graal related forums)

[zell12]

I want to see the top10...

You can just scroll through the calendar, everybody is linked eventually, because of their birthday. Or you add them to your buddy list, then they are linked as well.

I am pretty certain that Unixmad applies fixes for exploits, and just does not udate the thing as a whole.
