They all look great Nikt! Congratulations on the new crib once you’ve found it!

Not often I make an update these days - site is mainly still up for historical purposes but I was on last night removing someone's details at their request and decided to ban a spammer.

Not sure what happened, maybe they had a weird IP saved or something, but once I hit ban, nobody *even admin* could log in - just this message

: oof

In case I have to fix it again, the tradition is I post the solution here, in case it helps someone else or at very least future me.

1. removed all recent IP bans directly from banlist in database
2. tested - still same error
3. remembered phpbb caches everything in it's database, so changes don't always appear immediately.
4. bust brain on how I can purge cache while locked out of the board - button is in admin panel, requiring login
5. google it & find a page on phpbb forums
6. Make afile.php with code in it as follows:

Code: Select all: <?php define('IN_PHPBB', true); $phpbb_root_path = './'; // Relative to your phpBB installation path $phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1); include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx); $cache->purge(); $auth->acl_clear_prefetch(); die( 'done' );

7. Open it in browser - it says "Done"
8. Fixed! board lets us back in again.

yeah, been playing a lot of FF7remake on ps4, and alot of ps4 games actually.
Mr Greens is where i race on here as well, and SiK i guess.
MTA is quite empty these days *sigh*
I take it the DRuG MTA server is long gone?

Glad to see that everything is still up :geek:

Thanks Ziddy & also HAPPY BIRTHDAY DRuG!

We were formed the day before my birthday way back on November 2nd, 2003.

This brings DRuG to the ripe old age of 16.

Stay tuned for a proper birthday post... with PHP being updated, many may have noticed the member list and downloads areas on drugcrew.com were broken.

Members is now fixed, downloads is what I'm currently working on before I make the big post.

Enjoy! Make sure you check out the galleries.. well worth.
