I did a bunch of maintenance today!
First of all, I updated to SMF 2.0.1. Prior to day, we were running a release candidate. Whoops.
Second, I updated and reenabled httpBL to (hopefully!) cut back on the number of spam accounts that get created. I'm not sure how it got disabled, but it did. I'm guessing that it got knocked out when I did an SMF update and I just never noticed. Whoops.
Third, I installed Stop Forum Spam to help httpBL out a bit. Heres to me not having to work so "hard!"
Fourth, I enabled post count on the introductions forum to make it easier for me to tell who literally never posted and people who only made an introductary post and proceeded to naff off forever. You guys have never abused that forum, so I don't see any isue with making that change. I did the same thing to the Demilitarized Zone for the same reason.
Fifth, I downloaded a mod that added a maintenance item to recalculate the post count for all users, then went ahead and ran that. Your post counts are probably a wee bit higher now!
Sixth, I did a bit of general maintenance. Database optimization, recounting all thread/post counts, etc. Boring stuff.
Lastly, I deleted a massive amount of spam accounts, so we're back to having 77 members.
I feel so accomplished!
