You're right about that curses.  When the Admins banned, they put the ip in a string.  I remember dogmeat explaining it to me when I had inquired if it was a simple process because I had wanted to bann people right on the spot as well.

  Wow. So I'm guessing that some of the newer forum software has safety features that prevent this kind of thing? Like, if you malform your string it will tell you rather than just shutting the whole f*cking board down without your knowledge?

I guess what I'm asking is whether newer forum software will check your syntax before you finish making changes.
 
P.S. even now Curses delights in ignoring me. After all that we've been through, this is how he gets his kicks.

good programmers make sure their input is never malformed. but since DV programmers are script kids themselves i wouldn't have a clue what kind of best practices they use. if any. lol

p.s. the server running this software is lickety-split fast these days.
