Spammers out in force

Filed under All posts, Website Updates

Since Jan 1 2011 the forum spammers have been out in full force. They have been hitting my forum and others with a vengeance, I added a mod to mine to stop them or hopefully slow them down. Some of these are not spambots they are actual people in Russia that are being paid to add spam to forums. WordPress uses a spam service and mine has been stopping these registrations, like over 3,000 so far. Time to get prepared for a new round of fighting off spammers folks.

Site Updated

Had to make a new sitemap for the Search Engines, they only accept text and XML files now. The sitemap.html is still there and has been updated. Wow this ended up being a real pain trying to figure out what links to put in the text file, there are a lot of links on this site, my hobby got a little huge from 2000 to 2010. I just went with the major static and index pages otherwise were talking hundreds of thousands of links. I know there are some XML sitemap generators out there, but they only scan for 500 links.There is some software you can buy and install on the Server but there are a lot of options you have to set up in order to use them effectively. Makes CMS software really attractive for a site, you can install SEO/Sitemap plugins that do it all for you and they are free. CMS were not available when I started my site and moving it over would be an enormous project for just a hobby.

Just a fun note: WordPress was just starting up back then and it was bad, it was getting hacked all the time, I had tried it as an experiment and got hacked right away, it was removed by my Host not long after I had installed it, lol, software has really evolved from back then. Now WordPress is the most used Blogging software on the Internet and is “very” secure and fun to play around with. Like a CMS it has many free plugins to enhance your Blog and it is not to hard to make you own theme or modify an existing free theme.

Fixed some Head tags “Keywords” apparently Google was using some of them as site links, weird.

Fixed some game pages that somehow got messed up.

Removed a lot of old posts on this Blog, mostly site updates from years ago.

Gaming Arcades

I have a Gaming Arcade here: MikesComputerInfoArcade which has 800+ members so far and free to play, register for all the features like saving your high score. This arcade has over 3000+ games installed.
I have had my Forum up for a long time and nobody uses it, so I installed a Gaming Arcade to the Forum. The only difference between the two arcades is that with the Forum Arcade you can setup Tournaments. If you register you get all the features, like posting your high score, favorites, setup Tournaments, etc. I have 1800 games installed , I will be installing more games regularly, installing one at a time, lol.
Post a comment on the Arcades.
