    Yeah. I'm pretty sure this happened more than once, too.
    Moogy has a good point. You also have to remember that when the site has a weakness or exploit, we don't exactly want to go around telling everyone about it. Especially when our hands are tied and we can't do anything about it. Go and take a look at the possible exploits for phpbb 2.0.11+ and postnuke 7.5.0 and below and you will know trouble we were waiting for or fighting off continually. We have had many attacks on FFR in various forms over the years.

    As for Sertman, please don't go down the road to ignorance. You are freaking out about an image limit that is simply a setting that we can change.

    As for the integration, I will remind you that FFR is a free site and we welcome people to participate in the development of things like php scripts and connectors that merge databases between multiple systems etc. You (sertman) are more than welcome to take part in the process and help it become more integrated.

    I don't mean to sound so damn negative tonight but I get tired of people bitching me out because of things like image limits when I am dealing with things like 8000 pieces of spam flying out of my server every hour + upgrades + HDD's failing (yeah, that happened earlier in the week) + 3rd style + R2 + countless other FFR side projects + life.

    So forgive me tonight.

    Cheers,

      The issue regarding image limiting per post should be gone.

        i'm not "going down the road to ignorance" i just don't have a problem with making sure that my concerns are heard, and if sounding like an asshole will do it, then that's fine :P

            No, it's not fine. Because you're one of those people who can't appreciate hard work.

              I didn't mean "thats fine" like it was ok that i was being so arrogant. I meant it like "if i'm going to have to act like an asshole just to make sure my concerns are heard then that's fine with me, i will"

              i do appreciate hard work, and that doesn't have anything to do with anything. Just because someone doesn't like something doesn't mean they don't appreciate hard work, and I have no idea where you got that from.

                  I know, but it should be enough to trick people who would want to have that stuff anyway.

                  PS do something about quotes :( I like having the whole back and forth conversation to appear, but when I click the quote button on a post, it removes quotes from their quote

                      Can we please change that "1 2 3 Last Page" thing.

                      I used to be able to tell if I wanted to spend time reading a thread based on how many pages it was.

                      Make it like it was before.

                            It is easier to run through and I completely agree for this new Vbulliten. I think the reason others might hate it is because they like to stick to what they know.
