All,
On 01/25/15, this Sunday @ 6pm, I will be turning off the forum to conduct several patches.
The planned outage will be for approximately 1 hour.
I do not anticipate any issues or it being any longer.
Thank you.
Alex

Must be PST? LOL .. See you on FB or over at 88h!
amreboot: (2015-01-26 01:31:16)
Haha. Getting off to a slow start on the update. I will postpone it to around 9pm MST
inqui-Z-tor: (2015-01-26 11:51:02)
LOL .. I was gonna say .. That was a smooth update!
amreboot: (2015-02-15 04:46:09)
More updates on their way.
Stay tuned…

Interesting color scheme
reddzx: (2015-02-16 00:59:55)
I hope there are option other than the black background

Wow! …

You know black/dark themes always look good on pc, but often just aren't high contrast enough to read the content easily, especially the grey font…

I like it.

you can change the site skin in your settings back to the default skin if the black does not agree with you.
Though I like the red and black scheme, it's very suspicious at work (where I do most of my browsing hehe), I had to change it back to default to avoid drawing attention.

Had an email this morning saying Z31P had blocked 5 unsuccessful attempts to log into my account using the wrong password … checked the IP address listed in the email and it was reported as originating in China. Not sure they'd get anything here that could hurt me… they might be very disappointed in my progress on the car.
Just wondered if this was in any way connected with the changes made to the site, or the recent emergency outage… also wondered if anyone else had this problem…
inqui-Z-tor: (2015-02-16 15:46:17)
I (personally) have not had that issue. But I have heard of at least one other person that has received a similar notice.

I am aware of that issue.
Its a new spider bot that comes from China.
There is not much we can do to prevent the unauthorized attempts.
I get the notifications daily of all user accounts who are being hit. So far, no successful logins from China.

Thanks Alex… keeping us safe from Chinese spider bots is an inglorious job, but we appreciate it!
Makes me wonder if there are any Z31's in China… and if there are, who (or what) drives them… [archived image: smile.png]

Made some visual improvements to the logo.
Made it a tad bigger and centered it. Its auto adjusting to center as well.
The mobile version also has been modified.

I added a chatbox for quick shout-out type messages.
Note - this is not to be used for asking tech related questions, or marketplace type items.
It is definitely something that if used improperly, I will remove it.
Keep it friendly and respectful!
Enjoy!

Attention All:
CHINA has been blocked from z31peformance's forum
amreboot: (2015-03-17 04:34:02)
I fixed the China issues. No one should be receiving any alerts on Failed Login Notifications.

Added post voting.
Thumbs up or down for good posts. This builds reputations for credible users.
ozzyrulez: (2015-03-18 16:39:56)
That could be helpful. Could also cause drama. Hopefully we are mature enough to use it.
amreboot: (2015-03-18 16:54:33)
Yeah, we'll see.
Looks like I need to work on the thumbs up graphic icons. A bit fuzzy on the new template.

Fixed the following error message
wbnethery3: (2015-04-15 17:31:07)
Spam in my PM inbox… you want me to forward?
amreboot: (2015-04-15 17:32:46)
I need to know who is sending the spam
wbnethery3: (2015-04-15 17:36:31)
Forwarded the PM…
amreboot: (2015-04-15 17:46:46)
Yup, just the one spammer I see. He is gone.
wbnethery3: (2015-06-29 21:36:50)
Got a failed login warning email this morning… saw someone else had mentioned it in the chat window. Assume more bots from China…
amreboot: (2015-06-29 22:12:19)
Yeah. I saw those. Already took care of the issue this morning!
