Spam
Re: Spam
I deleted ~150 spam accounts (well, I hope they were all spam accounts). This week the forum software will be updated; once that is done I will probably delete some more accounts: spam rate per day is exceeding 20 atm, mostly from unique accounts. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sorry about that. Board needs some serious maintenance, and I didn't have time. Thesis defense in November.

Thanks for fixing that. Also, good luck with the thesis.
Re: Spam
Maintenance is not done yet.
I need to upgrade to the latest version to get rid of all the spammers, but a previous attempt failed horribly making the admin panel inaccessible. I need to do a manual backup of the database (without using the build-in backup function), then reinstall, then restore the backup. Getting access to phpmyadmin proved to be a major hurdle. I have that now, but there's a lot of work left. Maybe next week.

Many thanks for the maintenance. Take your time.
