Massive spam account purge
I have done a massive scan of the CW userbase to detect spam accounts that have slipped by in the past, undetected. Many date back in Early 2015. There were some false positives (or at least, accounts that looked legit) that I re-approved afterwards, but anything suspicious (for example, e-mail addresses such as [email protected] which don't match the account name) is now requiring approval. So if you notice that our total member count suddenly decreases by 140, then it's because Street...

On the home site we have a small text about codewalr.us with the heading 'Welcome to Codewalr.us!' - why not make the project pictures link to the according project threads instead of to ? I think that would be quite nice.

Karma change reasons now enabled
So in order to prevent accidental post down-voting and discourage suspicious down-votes, I have finally caved in and decided to enable karma reasons, so now when you click "Like" or "Flag as abusive", you will be asked why you want to up-vote or down-vote the post. We don't really mind if you give no reason for "likes", since "like" is self-explanatory (we recommend replying with a post to comment rather than just clicking the button, though). But for "flag as abusive" down-votes, you have to gi...

Karma Tracking IRC Bot?
I was thinking that we should have a karma tracking IRC bot. I have one set up, all it needs is a little more tuning and to join the channel. (nothing complicated, just has !karma <nick> and <nick>++/-- ) Would you staff like to use mine? If you are concerned about privileges, and other things, you can go through all the files and say what will work, and what won't. And its a premade bot, I'm just editing the commands available.Anyhow, just asking you guys, DJ Omnimaga [member...

[SUGGESTION] [DISCUSSION] [controversial?] Forum Structure Overhaul
Hello everyone.As of lately, there's been a lot of talk about whether or not CodeWalrus and the TI community are going to die. I too notice that the general focus of the people on the site is shifting, or rather, broadening from calculators to a wide range of science and tech related subjects. A concern that I heard was 'How do we keep members around when they lose interest in calcs?', and the answer is most likely 'Give them more place to discuss the things they like and get replies!'.

I am unable to join #CodeWalrus right now, because the channel limit is set too low. Juju tried manually increasing it, but the bots keep reverting his changes to +l 34 and even deopped him in the process.Would it be possible to just remove the limit altogether for now? It's not like the TI community is still under attack, after all, and we could just set the limit again if bot spam becomes a problem. Or we could just set a limit depending of time of the day, such as between 12 AM and 7 AM when ...

The slogan would be written in small font, placed diagonally, but it would change on every page refresh.Some ideas I had were the following, either self-humor or in reference to other stuff:-Friendship Unity Caring Kindnes...

Title says it all, three networks plus the internal omnomirc network are kinda annoying. I suggest dropping the freenode channel as no one uses it, maybe we could get rid of omninet as well since basically no one that doesn't come from omni uses the latter.

Some images for CW site are hosted there since I don't have write access to the main folders, because I sometimes update the site very fast, before you guys have time to upload them yourselves.And now some images such as contest banners are missing due to the sub-domain name not working.

Back in late 2011, Juju made a post statistic graph script like what Kerm had on Cemetech since 2010 or so, which displays forum daily posting statistics since opening. That graph is used on Omnimaga and was implemented by Juju, but he was demoted in March 2012 so the version we got is not as recent as theirs. However, they removed trend lines/averages, for some reasons, although they fixed missing 0-post days, so we got the trend lines back, at the cost of skipping 0-post days (although it's no...

The other day, Netham45 signed up but his account landed on the spam account page, with a yellow icon because it could not be checked. Also, sometimes, accounts will have a blacklisted IP, but their email won't be. In some cases, the last time a blacklisted IP matched a spam account will date back several months ago, which implies that it is not 100% guaranteed to be a spam IP anymore (especially with rotating IPs).This is why before deleting accounts you should make sure that it's not a false p...

Is there a setting somewhere to have quick reply enabled by default? I usually type posts up in the quick reply box and then preview them if I feel the need before posting. It seem really odd to have it hidden by default, and I'd assume there was an option to have it visible. Am I missing something obvious?
