We're working on it.

I think luzion was looking into that , there’s not a lot I can do there yet.

@Acres  
update: it works. this was hours ago.

That’s good, glad it works.

Has there been any progress with getting hCaptcha working?

Hcaptcha should work fine. I didn’t know there was something wrong with it. Especially since there are people signing up every day.
 
Edit: Just tested it on an incognito instance, hcaptcha loads and can be completed.

@ZizzyDizzyMC  
Strange, hCaptcha’s functioning normally for Registration, but for tag edits, source edits, reports, and image uploads, it’s still returning an error message saying that it’s not configured correctly.

Alright I’ll look into that further, that might be a code issue rather than a config issue. I apologize for this.  
>philomena is well tested, bug free software (until zizzy touches it and then it becomes just slightly better than vrchat.

This is zizzy trying to make an incognito post testing.  
Not sure if this will work.
 
Edit: It worked, but it also didn’t even ask me for a captcha. Thanks Philomena!

If it’s just a comment, it wouldn’t. Those have always been freebie’s for unregistered users on all the boorus.

@Anonymous #8A3E  
I just logged out and tried to edit tags. hcaptcha gave me some kind of server error.

Yeah I’m looking into it. There’s something wrong between the merges and I haven’t found it. I didn’t change anything relating to hcaptcha though.

I have successfully traced and fixed the issue with Hcaptcha regarding the other areas on the site. Any more bugs let me know and I’ll try to work through them as I can.
 
Thank you for your patience.

Is it just me, or are all the images broken?

@Havoc  
noticed it as well

@Havoc  
@Acres  
So I’m not the only one who experienced that error…

It’s brought to the admins attention.

@Acres  
About 15 minute. Record time.

@Havoc  
more like when I first posted, but sure.

@Havoc  
Hey now, we’ve got the average report response down to a mere sixty hours now. Please show some respect for the glacial speed we now provide.

@Napsack  
It’s never enough. Never.

The site wouldn’t even load for me. Weird,I didn’t even get the “We’re working on it” message.

@Dex Stewart  
I had that a little too. Hope it’s not another DDOS.

Network issues with upstream transit provider. In addition to one of the services failing due to network issues. Was fixed after 10 minutes or so when I realized what broke.

Due to extortion by a dumbass Swiss man (or duo, depending on who you believe) ANY users using hotmail are unable to receive email from Ponybooru (Or any other Z+ asset for that matter)  
This means you can’t sign up.

Now here is UCEprotect’s site, as you can see it’s a piece of shit. And that’s saying something considering the site you frequent. http://www.uceprotect.net/en/index.php
 
Why are we affected? I go though a smaller but not completely insubstantial provider who has now had their ASN (Autonomus System Number) listed as Level 3, which means anyone who uses UCE protect as a blacklist no longer accepts mail from ponybooru’s network.
 
Why don’t we just go to a different provider? 1. No. 2. Digital Ocean, Cockbox / Cock.li , Linode, Ram Node and several hundred other large providers have been blacklisted.
 
That site is doing this as an extortion scheme. Blacklist an ASN - tell that ASN’s customers to complain to their provider (The ISP) that they should pay the ransom. Otherwise their shit won’t work.
 
Providers like myself have finally said “Actually fuck you” and are now refusing to pay the ransom except for m247 who actually kicked Cockbox off of their network. Want to have fun? https://twitter.com/Cheaperhostnet/status/1359884042074734594

Yeah, it’s a shitshow.
 
Apparently you can also get your own IP blacklisted by emailing UCEProtect because they refuse to publish a useful email.  
It’s funny as shit.
 
From their contact page: http://www.uceprotect.net/en/index.php?m=8&s=0
 

 
And by own IP I mean the IP of whoever your email provider is. So basically with the change UCE protect has made, it’s possible to get a provider like gmail - banned from sending email to outlook.
 
 
Extortion will not be tolerated, and neither I nor the host I choose will pay the ransom. Simply don’t use hotmail or outlook , or pressure Microsoft to stop using UCE protect as if it were a legitimate blocklist.

So, what happens if I already have an account with an Outlook account?
