Interesting that this "file in the temp directory" IP-banned every single poster but allowed other IPs to access the board.

PSA to everyone: when the board was "down" due to a "temp file," all poster IPs were blocked but historical non-poster IPs could access the site and post.

no relevant difference. remember, rach's claim is basically that the server couldn't function b/c of the "temp file." but then absolutely no IP address should have been able to access xoxohth.

also notice how rach has suddenly gone silent as he is weaving a new web of lies.

1. rachmiel's account has actually been hacked, and that hacker continues to run XO from that hacked account.

http://www.xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=1432142&mc=9&forum_id=2

2. "file in the temp directory" that was overloaded actually logged all users who have ever visited XO, and all of their IP addresses were excluded from XO. First-time visitors from that IP address could post.

so it looks like some proxies change ips for every new link while others just use one for a given browsing session. this could help explain why some people were able to post and others weren't--how often their ip changed determined whether they were perceived as a new visitor or not.

i never accessed xo during the crash, though. to those of you who did: were you able to click on threads?

the posting proxies vs. non-posting proxies is a red herring. posting requires a certain amount of statefulness which some proxies might be able to achieve and all normal non-banned IPs would be able to achieve.

the real issue is the IP-ban on all posters when rach claimed that a "temp file" was to blame

that's what i'm getting at. i don't think anything was special about these posters. i think rach's consistent lack of forthrightness w/r/t IPs is the concern here

You might consider going to BLB.

(1) The dev is very responsive

(2) It has a red pillar. Red pillars are awesome. And stronger than \ hooks.

(3) No IP tracking, period. If that changes, the board will be notified with a STICKY.

(4) It's moderated, but poasts are almost never deleted (harassment of non-public individuals is pretty much the only time). You can opt into viewing NSFW/Spam poasts.

(5) Multiple monikers are allowed per-account, so you don't have to log out/in.

(6) Poasts in a thread are color-coded by time. Oldest poasts are dark red, newer poasts are brighter red.
