Hey, so i banned it for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it was mainly unmoderated and was causing a lot of mod reports we had to resolve under various spam and wrong community reports. There was sometimes a fair bit of porn it was reposting iirc too, which causes a fair few issues especially if it was reposting copyrighted material.

Secondly, it was taking up a lot of space. It had something like 1.5 million posts at the time I banned it. It was causing the user page to fail to load for admins because of just how big the search queries were becoming in the database. It wasn’t manageable anymore.

Thirdly it was only very infrequently upvoted/interacted with locally, to the point it went weeks without interaction where we stored tens of thousands of posts and subsequent thumbnails for no apparent reason.

We don’t have unlimited budget and storage is our biggest risk factor to cost, so ultimately we have to be pragmatic about hosting that content. We don’t have the budget of some of the larger servers unfortunately.

Hope that helps 😊

Thanks, i’ve added you as a mod to the xbox community!

Might be worth creating a runescape community with your .zip account, then within 24 hours all the other instances should start federating with it again.

@[email protected] do you want to mod it? Apparently yes it can be restored

.ml banned the mod

Ah yeah, my bad.

I don’t know what will happen if I recreate it, probably break everything. Will give it a shot.

I thought it had been locked before being deleted though, obviously not!

Hey, welcome along! 😁

Straight on the wishlist

Ah good, what everyone said would happen is exactly what is happening.

Sure its not the data verification company directly, but proves that the whole process is so sufficiently complex that your ID could end up with multiple different providers and then be stolen. Not great.

That’s like the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me 😭

Thank you ❤️ massively appreciate it!

I will look into liberapay if people want to use it!

Thanks for being part of it!

Thank you for being here!

It’s very annoying.

I will add that as I host it myself, there are probably additional things a user doesn’t see - Piefed is great. but they really need a pass at making sure all the cool things they are adding are easy to set up, documented well, and accessible.

One example is that on the admin page, there are lots of tabs with different things to configure. Then, for some reason, a different set of tabs is at the bottom of the page with different names for some of the same tabs, and others that are missing from the top etc.

I fully appreciate the active and constant development, but it really needs a UI pass.

I think it would have done much better had it been a true spin off from scrubs as originally planned, instead of some silly studio decision to make it series 9.

There was legs for something, but it wasn’t “scrubs”.

Me too. His character was great, and i really hope the other Ted’s Band members make a reappearance for the show.

Please don’t let it be shit.

Season 8 ended perfectly (there is no season 9).

How you come back so long later and keep it fresh, I don’t know. I just hope they can pull it off.

FYI these are all on ASN 49453

The other (lazier) option is to block/challenge the ASN

Definitely something was up, the server maxed out.

Seems similar behaviour to when someone imports their settings from another instance, which caused a lot of problems during the .ee migration, however I’ll see if I can find any other reasons for it.
