  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Sorry, I don't know who in Phun.org to address this to therefore, I posted it here.

    This is in regards to a certain IP subnet that Phun's firewall (??) doesn't like:

    The following are my trace report to forum.phun.org

    218.x IP subnet works fine but a 116.x IP doesn't:

    Question: what is it that Phun.org doesn't like about a 116.48 IP subnet? :confused:

    This can be replicated 100% and any time of the day.

    The problem is we get alot of hackers from your fellow countrymen. 90% of our forum hackers are from china(including HK) and Russia. I can see about possibly lifting that particular IP but you have nothing but your fellow countrymen to blame for us wanting to protect our site.

    Well, I won't argue that but probably blame it more on China than Hong Kong. Hong Konger's love pr0n :) China people are more traditionalists.

    If you could lift that subnet, that would be great. Otherwise, I may have to live with it...or see if my ISP can force a 218.x distribution based on my MAC address.

    Thanks

    Thanks...but could you ask them to unblock 116.48.x.x instead? I have a dynamic IP address...and my current IP is not 106.87.

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! It works.

    This certainly saves me a lot of hassle connecting and disconnecting whenever I received a 116.48 subnet

    Thanks again!

    Cheers!
