forum troubles :)

in the beginning of february probably some script was registering dummy users with web page to increase their exposure to search engines.

so on feb 19 we added image verification and luckily made the database backup, which i used to restore the forum after new security hole in phpbb.

probably i'll made periodic backups, depending on forum traffic, since all useful information i write down/save right away and most messages will be always restored anyway.

i mean we don't collect posts as the ultimate goal, posts just a means for development and reference for users who are looking for answers, so as long as that is generally preserved there is no big deal :)
