very nice :thumbsup

Totally agree :thumbsup

Like I suggested earlier,

Why not put the search feature on another server? Just copy the database on another one.

The other server would be used only for search results. You could not post replies in old threads but at least the search would be available.

Make that server available for everyone but disable the ability to post and reply.

And that would solve the script exploits and the main GFY server would not be affected by it

After 3 months ore more would be archived and put on something like http://www.gfysearch.com

Just a suggestion..

We are already working on exactly that. But it's turning out to be trickier than it seems on the surface.

heh i added a link to this thread in my blog post ;)

Lensman glad to see you folks are working on it, obviously it can be a headache, i can only imagine.

We are patient.

:)

Nice, thanks for letting us know, Lensman.

Sweet. Are you guys also working on a verification system like some people suggested. You know, one of those "enter the numbers you see on the image" gizmos. That could stop abuse, too.

Search function = more drama threads anyway!

more drama threads = more clicks = more revenue for all to be had!
