Re: Wiki upgrade to V1.19 LTS
4. I've also added the "ConfirmAccount" extension, so nobody can create an account without approval from someone with an elevated level of access (what's called a "bureaucrat" in Mediawiki). Since nobody can create page without having an account, that should keep the spamming little bastards under c...

Wiki upgrade to V1.19 LTS
Since there's been a major spam issue with the wiki for a while now, I've done some research and decided that the best bang for buck upgrade path is to go from our existing version Mediawiki v1.16 (old and unsupported) to v1.19.11 LTS (long term support) which is a couple of versions old now but is ...

Re: Spam in the wiki
I just got done upgrading the Wiki to a newer version which should help with the spam issue. I'll put up a separate post about it in a minute.
Re: FYI
It hasn't actually happened, yet... I've been able to hang on to the more-expensive server for now, by the skin of my teeth. I'd rather keep it that way if I can because it won't take much to ramp up beyond the capabilities of anything cheaper and switching back and forth between servers is a royal ...

Precisely. And the "Recharge Kit" would be if you did not want to wait for the end of the cooldown period.

Nope, moving forward there isn't a reason for this not to happen. As soon as the last quest is completed (or whatever the "completed" requirement is post-beta), we can record how many turns/days has been spent and log it somewhere for leaderboard purposes.

I kinda think they should be hidden while in DISABLED mode, it isn't really false sense in that case, they aren't able to log in, so they are basicly not playing the game anymore at that point till the matter is resolved and they get back on, in which case, they wouldn't be in DISABLED mode anymore...
