What happened to the thumbs up button for posts? It was a good way to say thanks for a valuable post. I hope you'll bring it back :cry:

Yes, I liked having that feature too. It was an easy way to show appreciation for a good post, without needing to make a speech.

Unfortunately our webhost changed something in their security protocol about a month ago, and it started randomly crashing this site and returning blank pages. Something about too many php requests or database queries throwing false positives with their new firewall security?

One day the site was working fine and the next day it wasn't. Don't get me wrong... I'm all for strong security to keep out malicious hackers. But there needs to be a balance between security and functionality

Anyway, I had to disable some of the features to get the site working again.

I've been in contact with them about it and hopefully they get it figured out soon.

But at least the site works for now (albeit with some of the cool features disabled :evil: )

That's too bad. I hope they get it working or maybe you need to find a new host :cry:
