Forum has been offline since some days ago. Database reached file size limit of 3 Gb imposed by my ISP (Hostinger). Instead of sending an alert email, they locked database access to the forum application. Thanks God I'm a sysadmin myself and I'm used to tinker with SQL databases, so I shrunk the database size -most of the size was taken by ancent session logs and other disposable stuff. However access was still locked. I contacted them for help, as the database was inside allowed parameters and I could access it remotely without problem. They opened a support ticket but said that it could take long to fix. So I dumped the locked databse, created a new one with another username, changed myBB config to point to the new one, and voila! Forum online again.

I'm seriously thinking about moving my hosting from managed provider to self-administered AWS account, as I already have experience with this platform.

Sorry for the inconveniences this downtime may have caused.]]>

Perhaps it would be an idea to make certain users moderators, or add an additional captcha?

I noticed setting up Windows and Linux is just a copy paste of what's in Github.

Also I noticed at the bottom of http://tilengine.org/doc/page_window.html it says "Escape" toggles the CRT effect, when it should be "Backspace" Smile]]>

When in fact if you open C/C++ you get instructions for the awesome C# as well. This should be mentioned on the menu so people aren't misled, thinking it's only C/C++!]]>
