Site now actively watching

[admin]

The site has had a new function launcher, where it will look at every connection it receives and compare to a list of "bad IP addresses", if it finds a match, it will save a record of this and will punt them off to my exit page.

Also there are already a number of other pages that when hackers attempt to pass bad information, will see their address get added to the previous offenders, then will be punted to the exit page.

At least in theory this should work.. lets see if we can tell if it is

as of 11-16-2024 12:38am (38 minutes), there have been 45 records saved, so 45 people have been booted.

So as of 2:12pm on Sunday November 17. The site has tracked 1,743. As one GM can attest if you are banned, you will be locked out. This should only be the case if you do something shady, I know the GM and say no chance he's a secret hacker, but will be watching for any odd behaviour anyways

Ok last update, just happy to see how this is working, I had a clunky manual list, but this works so much better.

There are a total of 2,765 records have to this table

There are a total of 320 records saved as of today @ 8:00am.

So I see this thread was started Nov 16, so in just under 4 weeks, the site has tracked and rejected 82,608 hits, that's as of the time of this post, the number will keep climbing all day and night.

Once the site finds a user passes bad code to the site, it saves their information and saves to a database. Everytime someone loads the site, virtually every page, checks to see if that connection is on the bad list, if it is they are expelled from the site to a "colourful" google page. If you are concerned you've been added to this list, it should be blantantly obvious, but rest assured, can always be fixed.
