This is a
request to Server Administrators, are you using the
RMBL ban list that is a compiled list of both PBB
and PSB anti-cheat groups with duplicates removed?
I ask because
I see nobody has signed up for the email that tells
them the list has been updated, and it has been
running now for a couple of months, and takes a lot
of processing power to generate.
you can also have the ban list posted to your server
via FTP automatically, at the end of the day you are
paying for your servers so protect them and stop
these cheat/hackers from destroying your game play.
On another
note you should also ask your server providers to
open the screen shot port to enable anybody to see
screen shots as a lot of hackers can be found
through this method, and there are many players who
would scan the screen shots for you to track down a
hacker and have them banned.

Hi all, well back
online.
It's taken sometime to cross over as the new website plan only allows me
one database in MSSQL so have to re-assign all the forums databases and
pull both both of them into one DB.
I think everything is all up
and running now, but should you come across any bad links before I get
to them please email me and I will fix them A.S.A.P
I do hope now to keep
this site running for a long time as the running cost are cheaper than
the last plan, I would like to thank all those who donated as this as
helped pay for nearly the full year, thank you one and all.

I am overwhelmed by the amount of people sending emails of support
and have amazingly received donations. I don't like asking for them
so that's why the donation button has never been prevalent on the
site, my fault maybe trying to keep this running from my own pocket,
although I have managed to do it for a good few years now, and don't
like Advertisements - I hate being subjected to adverts all over the
place.
Anyway there is a rescue plan in place. A good friend of mine,
in-fact the person responsible for getting me into this in the first
place, also has a hosting plan with the same company - all be it on
a reduced scheme to the one I have - he is going to pull it over and
we will share the cost of the hosting. My only concern is the SQL is
limited (Unless you pay more) to 2 gig. Ever since I started the
Chat-Log auto parsing pages, and holding them for two weeks, Admins
have been using this feature a lot and it takes up quite some space,
plus all the other things I store away.
I also have an SQL server in the UK, but need the web server in the
USA to have the chat log data close at hand to make sure the speed
is there. Most of the data for the other things at RedSack come from
the UK SQL.
I think it should be all ok, just have to change it all now, so the
site may go down for a couple of days.
I was depressed when the conversion rate showed it was costing so
much, and came to the conclusion that I could not afford it anymore,
but with the amount of support being offered, it has shown me that
it must stay up and running, I am only one person and did not think
there were so many people devastated as much as me if it went down.
Please be patient, it will change in the next couple of days all
links will stay the same.
This email will be posted to the website and all forum members, if
you are one of the donators I thank you from the bottom of my heart,
I am 49 years old and I felt a lump in my throat when I saw these
come in - THANK-YOU again for them.
