  1. I have RSS feeds for both getmangos and ru-mangos communities, as I understand russian it was an advantage to 'eat' more knowledge :)

    But latest RSS I've received is:

    Закрытие проекта MaNGOS

    by evilstar

    Проект прекращает своё существование.

    Translating:

    Closure of Mangos project

    by evilstar

    Project is terminating.

    And their site is down now.

    That isn't very informative nor kind information, but in the style of russians, they don't like explaining.

    Is here anybody who could explain me WTF is going on?

    The most important question for me now is: did he mean Ru-mangos project or the whole Mangos (including this site) is about to be closed?

    Secondary question: Why? The forum was very active, I am dissapointed

  2. No problem, When I was typing topic name :"Forum spam" I was thinking someone will definitely accidentally report me :D

    I personally have to fight spammers much, I have active forum which periodically is a target for spammers.

    Best thing so far I found is "assemble picture kaptcha", but since you run different forum software I can't insist on my option being best cross-platform :) Just felt expressing my opinion since I noticed a lot of spam in RSS which means moderators have tough time keeping it clean.

  3. Hello everyone,

    I am relatively new to the forum but would like to point out:

    I am subscribed to RSS feeds of the forum, and have noticed that 80% of posts are spam, most of which is deleted fast.

    Due to massive spam, I would like to suggest improving anti-spam side of the forum, captchas, some custom questions like on ru-mangos site, etc etc. We could add something to reduce the spam traffic.

    Thanks

  4. Hello everyone,

    I am writing a site module which will bridge registration/users with realmd database.

    I have hit the common problem for newbies, so I am sorry in case the question is repeated.

    How do I encrypt the 'sha_pass_hash' filed in realmd.account (UDB).

    I have looked around wiki, forum, even YTDB wiki, they all tell me the logic: sha1(uppercase(username + ":" + password)). But I have tried it on my 11775 version and it won't work. I get authentication error.

    P.S. If I set password using realmd console then authentication works, but if I rehash password using sha1(uppercase(username + ":" + password)) I get different hash and can't authenticate.

    Could it be that since 11775 hashing method is changed? Or is there anything else which I've done wrong?

    Thanks,

    Stinkyfax

  5. Tried using python script, it has some bugs, here is how my fixed and working version looks:

    For scriptdev2 updates

    #!/usr/bin/env python
    import glob, os
    patches = glob.glob('*.sql')
    patches = sorted(patches)
    
    for x in patches:
     print(x)
     db = x.split("_")[1].replace('.sql', '')
     os.system("mysql -umangos -pxxxx -v " + db + " < " + x)
    

    for UDB updates:

    #!/usr/bin/env python
    import glob, os
    patches = glob.glob('*.sql')
    patches = sorted(patches)
    
    for x in patches:
     print(x)
     db = x.split("_")[2].replace('.sql', '')
     os.system("mysql -umangos -pxxxx -v " + db + " < " + x)
