bummer - Drunk Monk - 04-04-2013
it's been running fine for me lately. kudos, DOOM webmaster!
Maybe you didn't notice? - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 05-04-2014
Yeah, my bad about the forum being down for two days. TuCows, a DNS provider was sending me missives asking me to verify the account. I either never got them (which I didn't) or tossed them. I got on with Tech Support and they said that TuCows was verifying my contact information. I needed to go in and hit the button that said my information was accurate. So, I did just that without actually verifying that it was accurate.
Turns out I still had a ten year old email address in there. My verification emails were going to <!-- e --><a href="mailto:lyncher@sprintmail.com">lyncher@sprintmail.com</a><!-- e -->. Ooops. I changed it. Site is back up. None of you probably even noticed it was missing. I did. I have Amazing Spiderman to talk about.
thank goodness - Drunk Monk - 05-04-2014
I was going into ddts (Doom delirium tremens).
Now I have to spend the whole day on the beach self-medicating in order to recover.
Who is spiderman? Is he like spiderpig?

Now, if you could just make it stop redirecting me to the porn sites when I try to access the forum on my iPad, that would be great. :oops: (I'm assuming of course that this is a bug, and not a feature.)

Sounds more like a "feature" to me.
Ahhh, the ole porn site redirect - cranefly - 05-05-2014
Lady Cranefly has the same problem with her phone when touching DOOM.
Re: Why Greg hates the forum - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 05-05-2014
Hopefully, the forum has that newly updated smell.
Re: Why Greg hates the forum - The Queen - 05-05-2014
If I don't enter the forum via an email notification link, it still takes me to "instabang.com" or "badoink.com."

This forum allows me to bypass FaceBook. You guys are the only people I want to talk to.
why is it only the women here get porn? - Drunk Monk - 05-06-2014
all i get is you guys.
ED is better than porn.
ok, that didn't come out right at all. :oops:
Re: Why Greg hates the forum - thatguy - 05-28-2014
Something nefarious is detecting the User Agent string as iOS and redirecting to:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.bioidenticalhormones360.com/8de5e3f848ade2bacf16267c467af284.php?q=c0467b348d7fde7068b7d721351169ff">http://www.bioidenticalhormones360.com/ ... 21351169ff</a><!-- m -->
...which then redirects to various "dating" sites with the page title "Campaign Launcher Page"
If you change your current desktop browsers UA to:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 6_1_4 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0 Mobile/10B350 Safari/8536.25
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.webapps-online.com/online-tools/user-agent-strings/dv/operatingsystem51849/ios">http://www.webapps-online.com/online-to ... m51849/ios</a><!-- m -->
..you can see it, too.

Maybe - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 06-20-2014
I think I have found the file that redirects to the porn ap. I have removed it.
Re: Why Greg hates the forum - thatguy - 06-20-2014
No...it's still redirecting. You can test with Safari by enabling the Develop menu in the Preferences->Advanced, then open a new window and from the Develop menu, choose "User Agent -> Safari iOS 7 iPhone", then go to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://brotherhoodofdoom.com/phpBB3">http://brotherhoodofdoom.com/phpBB3</a><!-- m -->
boom! (or should I say bang?)

Re: Why Greg hates the forum - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 06-20-2014
Hmmm. Didn't work for me. I got the forum, no giant penises for me.
