[Tech Problem ]What is wrong with Spacebattles?

Ubiquitous · Post by **Ubiquitous** » 2003-01-03 07:59am

I have been trying to access it all morning, yet to no avail. In the last hour I have started to receive 401 user access denied errors, even when I type my forum username + password into the details box that appears.

What's going on? Anyone know when the forum will be working again? Has it been hacked? Upgrading to VB3?

Dahak · Post by **Dahak** » 2003-01-03 08:03am

It may be the VB3 update Tron talked about. Maybe they did it today?
Just my 0.02€...

I wanted to register today, but nothing. I'll try again later. Perhaps.

404 error now ... forum not there at all?

Must have deleted the 2.28 so they can put the 3.xx up.

Well, VBB 3 looked better than 2.8
It may be worth it after all

No, it's because of:
"Due to an annoying Troll, new members sign ups has been tempoerarily disabled.
We are sorry for the inconvinience. This function will be running again soon. Thank you for your patience. "

It was because of a troll named Shakkara. She thought the Middle Ages were a paradise. She continued to re-register again and again.

Right now the site's fine.

No, the troll didn't get spacebattles. Registration was just closed down for a while.

SB trolls aren't really eligible for that dishonor...

Loads fine for me...

In what context? I personally like the weather they had at the time, and if given the choice would revert the world to their weather style. (I believe it was them)

Basically so you all know the weather back then was about 10-15degrees higher then it is now.

She will return sooner or later, trust me. That bitch wont give up.

She will when she pisses off the wrong person.

I'm suprised Kier hasn't contacted her ISP and had her account yanked.

I'd like to see this thread where Shakkara finally got banned.
Link?

ArmorPierce · Post by **ArmorPierce** » 2003-01-03 05:48pm

And I thought that registration was turned off because they reached 4000 members

Same here, but sadly there isn't one. Tron must have banned her and not bothered to post the 'she is banned' thread to stop it turning into a kiss-Tron's arse thread.

Although for banning that bitch he deserves to have his arse kissed (by HDS of course, not me :d

)

Well, I have been getting a lot of "Server is currently overloaded" errors.

Shinova · Post by **Shinova** » 2003-01-03 08:46pm

About Shakarra:

Right now she's well-behaved over at Starport33, but that could be that political issues haven't come on yet---then the flak might fly.

Also, she can change her IP repeatedly, has at least 17 active usernames on SB, and some more I guess. I've seen screenshots of her programs in action. Nasty-looking stuff.

Hence, she's apparently immune to all kinds of IP bans and looks like she can change her email address as well.

Gah, talk about taking it to the extremes.

Shinova · Post by **Shinova** » 2003-01-03 08:46pm

Oh, and they haven't upgraded to vb3, for those who still can't access the site. It's probably some IP or DNS problem.

Hyperion · Post by **Hyperion** » 2003-01-03 08:51pm

i *could* probably render shakkara impotent if i dusted off some of my old skills...
