Rebuilding FSTDT

[BobRumba]

I was an approver of submissions back in Distind's day.  I would do that again.

I never saw how bad the troll problem got, I wasn't really privy to that.

I've got tons of free time, and i've admin'd on imageboards and game servers. if you want a public facing admin to deal with troll enforcement and submissions, i'm your man.

Troll enforcement, yeah.  Public humiliation actively encouraged.

my method was always the give warning to pack it in, if they continue then bring down the hammer. What exactly do you mean by public humiliation?

Currently working on a database setup script for the Rebirth.  Using PostgreSQL because its something with which I'm familiar, its free, and I'm a cheap bastard.  Also, methinks I've decided on using the Python approach, since anything I need there is likely available free-of-charge and, again, see cheap bastard.  Doesn't hurt that Python can run on anything that's got it installed regardless of OS.

Wooh!  Not even two weeks after I said work was being done to bring back the mainpage, and I've already received one indirect death threat!  Oh, this is gonna be fun.

[Art Vandelay]

Sorry about that. I get a bit testy when I can't find any good horse porn.

This is quite exciting.  Thanks for keeping us in the loop.

I wonder if you can put up a new page which says "returning soon" or something, so the faithful can know there's still life in the old thing yet?

[RavynousHunter]

I don't have any control over or access to the FSTDT domain, so I can't do anything with it, unfortunately.

Oh, I wondered about that.  Is that one of those things where only shy has the key?

[RavynousHunter]

As far as I'm aware, aye.  If I had they keys, I wouldn't bother remaking shit, I'd just fix what was broken and be on my merry way.

Oh man, death-threat guy on the FSTDT subreddit seems to be getting a little testy.  Prolly because I keep mocking him, but its just so hard to resist the urge!  I can't help it, I swear.

[SomeApe]

There is an FSTDT subreddit?! Cool!
