Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Why are they so interested in us?

Our wings are not tired.

Because we're very pretty.

Dammit. They found the 'email the admins' page.

I swear, the "Mission: Impossible" theme went through my head at that.

What is even happening?

I left Natter loaded with this as the last post: Topic!Cindy "Natter 39 and Holding" Oct 14, 2005 3:06:46 pm PDT

I just came back, and hit the message center link at the bottom of the page, and got the following error message:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';', expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/httpd/vhosts/buffistas.org/httpdocs/classes/email.php on line 51

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Fixed now.

Okay -- I've double-triple checked we can't be used as a relay. However, I can't think of a way to reliably weed out the bastards.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

If they're using the 'e-mail admins" form, can we capture their IP address? Would that do us any good, or is it likely to be fake?

Can we stop b.org return addresses from being accepted?

I can embed that information into the e-mails. Let's see if anything comes of it.

As for blocking b.org addresses -- dammit, I hate those kids. We shouldn't have to do that. There are legit (though avoidable) reasons to accept b.org addresses.

Yeah, I know.

Although, thinking about the e-mail form a bit, do we need it, as opposed to just using a mailto link? The form is nice because is fills in the user's default e-mail address, but most of the messages we get are from people who either aren't Buffistas yet, or have forgotten their username or password, and therefore aren't logged in anyway. For them, the form doesn't really provide any more functionality than a mailto would, does it?
