    Updating PHP

    Only when absolutely required, and everything I run is supported by the newer version. For instance, XF 2.2 requires PHP 7.0 with a minimum of 8.2, but does not behave well on 8.2 or 7.0 with the add ons I have, and I have a couple of licenses for 2.2 that I might pop up before upgrading to...

    Most Money Spent?

    I use cloud services billed per hour so it can range from $120ish to $250/month, depending on if I want to get a heavy task done faster (deploy an 8vCPU instance to bust something out quickly as I do value my time too, even though it could very well fully execute on 1vCPU). I also have Object...

    Is the dot forum a flop?

    I acquired a .forum domain with a forum that I bought (since resold, but kept the name). It was coming up for renewal at NameCheap next month for $42, and I was kind of iffy on that price. So tonight, I checked my favorite registrar, Dynadot, and it was $32. That $10 extra was enough push for...

    Staying Logged In

    I do. It's a left-to-right productivity routine I have down. Mailbox 1, Service 1, Mailbox 2, Mailbox 3, Drive, Sheet 1, Sheet 2, ... (winging it from bed, but essentially that with 30~ tabs). Each time I go left to right, it reminds me of the importance of tasks that need completed.

    Hello everyone!

    Staying Logged In

    Same. I was always anxious that there'd be a Windows update during the night and I would lose all my tabs, having to rebuild them again. I honestly didn't know that Chrome saved your tabs in a hard close until about a couple of months ago, so I opened them one by one and rearranged them again...

    Have you ever been?

    No. It was a forum from which I had/have explicit permission to transfer data to a third party in alignment with the ToS/Privacy Policy (essentially any other forum under ownership). A member just didn't like that they became a member of another forum, or the process that I took (importing users...

    Google AdSense New Rewarded Ads Beta

    This is pretty neat. You could probably work in a way to make SPOILER content available after an ad view (for guests) too. But, the forum would probably have to have a lot of it it to make sense.

    XenForo Contact page spam

    A private node (that doesn't add to post count) and with Ozzy's (now Xon) Contact Us Thread add on. https://xenforo.com/community/threads/ozzmodz-contact-us-thread.143934/ I find sorting through one forum easier than going Inbox, Promotion, Forums, Spam (Google's foldering/labeling) then...

    XenForo Contact page spam

    No. In fact, I make them into threads so they're not sent into the abyss as you can miss something. Unfortunately, this isn't DMCA compliant (I'd wager GDRP too but don't really care about that side of the pond). I'd add a Help page with the relevant information if you're going to remove the form.

    Do any of you not care about mobile users?

    This new style made me getting used to, but it fixed the screen zoom issue.

    Do any of you not care about mobile users?

    I never noticed this because I'm always on AAF at home, but it looks like this style is affected by screen zoom too. You have to pinch it back into place. The screenshot where the red appears to be wrapped (perfectly) is with screen zoom all the way to the left (I just found it redundant to...

    Which hosting company you don't trust?

    I was going to post a few that I knew of from this list. However, I didn't seem to realize they were all the same company. Sounds like my favorite brands (Quicksilver, Billabong, DC Shoes, etc.) and Authentic Brands.

    Promotional banners/buttons

    That's how I feel signature URLs would be if you could convince a huge number of your members to put your forum in the signature across multiple forums that they're members of. So, why risk it? I know the 750,000 backlinks wouldn't count (but you could see them if you used certain tools), so...

    Promotional banners/buttons

    That's what I'd worry about if a forum of 500 members did it across all forums they're members of... let's just say 3 each... 1500 backlinks across 500 threads each is 750,000 backlinks. It would get messy really quickly if you could get that many members to participate. What is 2 people use...

    Have you ever been?

    Yes, for "unethical behavior" for taking a data set I have full rights to, and instead of doing a traditional XenForo import of those members, creating an XML file for each member (in the XF XML import "template") to import members one by one and sending them a password reset so that I know that...

    Promotional banners/buttons

    I've considered it, but forum links are low hanging fruit and could do more damage than good with a ton of forum signatures/forum profile links back to your site.

    Looks like they have until 4/26/2025 to renew it before it goes into the redemption period. https://www.dynadot.com/blog/what-happens-when-a-domain-expires https://sg.godaddy.com/whois/results.aspx?domain=offtopicz.net
