Holy fucking bot hell batman

Maybe someone got offend by the idmf meme thread about idmf…

Or maybe it was some political shitposts

You remember the dude who lost his shit because his song wasn’t picked up for a comp?

It brought us what remains my fave IDMf quote ever, courtesy of @ReWIR3D

“it should have been my track selected you dirty cunts”

Yeah, my first thought was the Disco Android finally achieved sentience and went full smooth, lapelled, cocaine-fueled Skynet on our dirty asses.

Invite him back, let’s settle this once and for all with a good old fashioned rap battle

He’s not banned or anything. He’s even been back at least once recently that I know of.

Righto peeps, it’s just so happens that a few days ago discourse introduced a native hCaptch plugin. I have updated the forum and activated this so we should be protected from those spammy bots now. I have re-enabled user registrations

@Guy_Wachtel they’re back, apparently captcha isn’t enough to stop them :confused:

So far just the one user since the change. Hopefully it was just a blip.

At least i don’t see a flood of bots active rn, hopefully the captcha can catch most of them.

There are some additional checks behind the scenes i’m going to implement as well that should help, i was going to do it yesterday, but my IRL job required my attention. I’ll see what i can get done today.

@Manton and I will keep our eyes on this over the coming days, and will do what we can to prevent this nonsense from occurring again.

If need be I can increase the complexity of the captcha with a puzzle as well.

Make everybody set up a modular rig, it’s the only way forward

Probably falls under unnecessarily complex, but having to (virtually) patch something stupid simple like VCO > Envelope > VCA > Mixer would make a goddamn amazing Captcha. 1 billion bonus points if the Captcha actually played sound while you did it.
