yeah some of us were considering the application of captchas earlier. we'll see how it turns out. the amount of spam in the last few weeks is humongous

Yup, the history on every page record the name of the user that edited it. If the admins have time they can track the bandit and sanczun him (if he is a disco member).

the thing is theyre just spambots 90% of the time. i know of only one instance when a page was edited to a point of being ridiculous by a member. if i recall correctly it was the rotfront page.

I hope you don't actually think the wiki was hacked because some spambot came along and changed something, Juan_Arquero.

No, wiki administration is dealt with completely seperately from forum/server administration.

All spam banned and spam pages deleted... yet again.

I also protected the main page from editing for 1 month. This will at least stop auto defacement. If anyone wants to edit the main page with a legitimate purpose in mind in the mean time, message me and I will unprotect it.

Not sure where to post it. I don't have Access to the Wiki Page and I am too lazy to create an Account now, because of previous Problems creating an Account.

The "Interactive Map" Link on this Page (Link) brings me onto this Website.

The interactive map was made, as I recall, by a player hosting the map on an external website linking back to the wiki. This interactive map was never completed fully and has probably been taken down.

I will remove the link shortly.
