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.

um, "rachmiel" = hacker that took over xoxo

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, a "file in the temp directory" was responsible, eh?

3. Mods could post during the blackout.

um, "rachmiel" = hacker that took over xoxo

4. Posters who could post during the blackout.

a. David Alan Grier

HEY RACH XO IS DOWN!

b. moisttowelettedood

c. Pliny the Elder

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.
