GeofftheMedioAnybody done any game scripting with Python?04:48
TortanickI've played with project Euler, but no real programming04:48
Tortanicksorry04:49
GeofftheMediodid Euler involve Python?04:49
TortanickEuler is in any language you want, its a collection of math problems best solved by codeing04:49
TortanickI use python04:50
Tortanickbut I'm not very good04:50
Tortanickbtw geoff, how long will it take for my forum account to be activated?04:51
GeofftheMedioI'm not sure... I think Tyreth deals with that presently.  How long have you been waiting?04:51
Tortanicksince saturday04:52
GeofftheMediohmm.  that's a tad long.  I'll email Tyreth about it... hopefully it'll get taken care of soon.04:53
Tortanickthanks, that would be great :)04:53
HaravaHey hey can you ask Tyreth to check mine too? Deto :D05:01
HaravaI've been waiting for some random weeks :D05:02
GeofftheMedioemailed05:03
HaravaThanks Geoff :)05:03
Tortanickthank you :)05:03
GeofftheMediothanks for waiting... it's unfortunate we have to do the activation thing.  (excessive spam)05:04
HaravaBetter than free accounts in my opinion :)05:05
TortanickI wonder why the spammers are targeting you, I've never known any other forum to need personal activation05:05
GeofftheMedionot better if we don't get interested people contributing because they can't post immediately, or their activation is forgotten...05:06
HaravaMaybe there could be 'free' section in the forums? But you'd need activation to access more important sections?05:07
GeofftheMediothere is forum spam on many phpBB forums05:07

tpb<http://ln-s.net/Z+N> (at ask.slashdot.org)05:07
TortanickI've either seen forums with no spam, or nearly all spam, I don't think I've seen any in the middel05:08
HaravaYeah, majority of 3D forums need activation, but its usually very simple process, couple of image textes to write and email to check :)05:08
TortanickAll the forums I've seen with no spam have required a captha and a valid E-mail adress, but not waiting for an admin to activate accounts05:08
GeofftheMedioforums with enough traffic to keep it quickly deleted, or which don't use a prewritten forum software probably don't have much problem with spamming...05:09
GeofftheMedioI think there was captcha authentication for a while, but it wasn't working05:09
TortanickPerhaps you could ask other phpbb forums for advice?05:10
GeofftheMediomaybe... I'm not a forum admin though...05:10
xandertracererI had also spam05:24
xandertracererbecause of that i have now phpbb3rc105:24
xandertracererjust update your forums and your spam problem is solved, but you will have lesser problems, because it is a rc105:25
xandertracererI could help, because I have done that05:26
GeofftheMedioi suggest you email tyreth05:26
xandertracererI should email him?05:30
GeofftheMediosure.  or forum pm, since he doesn't seem to gave a public address05:31
