Hi guys, The site went to rats whatsits while I was in Australia, as many of you noticed. However, I think I’ve discovered why and although I’ve not fixed it I have implemented a work around. Basically the new front page has a nasty memory leak somewhere and as the site gets busier the leak…

Just a couple of answers to some of the recurring questions and themes in comments after our about-turn announcement in the previous entry. Unauthenticated Comments: These will not be switched off. There are a huge number more people that value this facility than the couple of babies on the site that continue to misuse it….

There’s something wrong with the query that runs the last updated screens (the one if you click the Show button) Its disabled, I can’t be fagged to figure out what is wrong with it, its obviously decided to explode in the last few days and frankly its half past eleven and I have better things…
You've sent something to our server to which it objects
BySteve
Or, you just get a 403, Forbidden error message… Yeah, sorry. The server was recently compromised by some unscrupulous bots that exploit weaknesses in various scripts that are available on the internet. Usually phpBB, but the list is growing. I’ve therefore tightened up the security settings for the server, but it appears these settings are…
Spam Diaries Discussion
BySteve
Hi all, Thanks for all your input on the previous diary entry. Many of you have indicated that you'd be more than willing to help moderate the spam diaries. Some of you have suggested making it only delete if multiple people mark it as spam so as to avoid possible mistakes. I think…
sorry matt,

Don’t know where else to post this so here I go:
"Private comments are viewed by choice!
The person is snooping for this exact thing, to see if private comments or even private entries have been made.
It is simple to do — all one has to do is right click the page background and choose "view source" and voila! One can read everything a person has written including the HTML. This can also be done by choosing view on top taskbar of your browser and choose source.
So, my dear fiend you did not happen upon this by chance, you are playing a game.
Have a good time of it!

ps – I am not ashamed of anything I have written, private or not. Read away!"

DDDaaahhhhh ME !:(
Forgive me, Some said they viewed my private entries…so i started to investigate how this can happen.
Well, forgetting I was signed into my own diary and checking my own diary. Naturally the private comments would show up.
Soooo, you can kick me out, shoot me in the bum or whatever else you want to do but i beg your forgiveness for being such a dummie.

Sorry Guys, I thought it was best just to let people no quickly as possible before they wrote something as I had done…
I understand your point though…

Ladi, Rony and I… I honestly didnt even "think" of looking for others…Matt, you know Im not computer savey first hand, hope you know I didnt
look to "breech" security…<s>

Regarding the poem, although it’s lovely, I’m sure you’ve all heard the sad news that the story of the five rescued firefighters turned out not to be true after all.

ruminating

Was wondering about adding more links in the menu?

I have a suggestion.. please anyone that feels the same way I do, please suggest this to the nice guys at DD.Net…
I have had my diary here for a long time.. way over a year now… and I am thinking… a lot of us will stay a long time… this site is very successful..
so, I believe… a lot of us will stay for years… and support DD.Net…
so here is my suggestion…
May we please increase the amount of months to show at one time… currently… it’s set to 12 months… can we please increase this to 2 years? or… more?
Please please… it’s so difficult to go back through all the entries a year past.. because we have to go back one entry at a time.
I love you guys… I hope other’s feel the way I do… and hope you guys can do this, without it costing too much.
Love,
