So I was wondering, if the new SP could have a reddit-style spoiler, where it only blocks the words, and shows if you mouse over it. I'm not saying take out the current spoiler, but adding that would make it easier to cover certain words or phrases w/o completely cutting the sentence off. Maybe call it [cover] or something.

in-line spoilers would be useful, yeah

Would like to have this too.

Also, looking good Jeff! Keep up the great work.

jeff, that's fucking awesome. i haven't learned anything about html5 yet, but i'm curious to take a gander at the code you've come up with for the procedural walking. i briefly experimented with actionscripted walking back in the day, and it was a real bitch to get working and looked shit in the end anyway.

I'll definitely release the source on github once I've finished the project then, glad to see some interest :) Right now I'm making a lot of improvements to the animation engine so I don't wanna release the unfinished code, but for sure if there's even a slight amount of interest I'll put something up.

Didn't even know such things were possible with html5. Good job, man.

In case anyone is wondering, Stone's account was compromised so he's been removed as admin for now. The attacker didn't do anything serious, and I've already reversed any changes they attempted to make. We don't need to reset the database, no information was leaked. Nothing to worry about.

Good work.

Speaking of which Jeff, how is stone lately? I don't usually peruse the top sections of this forum so I don't know if he's actually still here. We usually get glimpses of him when he posts his twitch links in the Chat Thread and that hasn't happened in awhile.

Stone is fine, he's working on projects relating to SP at the moment and occasionally collaborates with me for ideas on the new site.

Good catch, Jeff.

Just curious, what do hackers mostly have to gain by hacking into a site like Stickpage? Just shits and giggles?

If you'd believe it, it seems a lot of the time it's politically motivated. The convenient and free access to entertainment and games gives SP an audience in some impoverished countries with tense political or social climates. Even though we think of ourselves as a small community, the actual number of people visiting the site daily from these countries is quite large which makes us viable targets and due to the unfortunate use of vBulletin - a paid software with paid updates and limited security support - we are often also vulnerable between when a new exploit is discovered and vBulletin decides to release a patch for it. It's pretty much a dead simple no-brainer for a hacker that wants to put up a message that targets our audience in those countries. We've previously been hacked by a group in the middle east and all they did was show propaganda, the same thing has been attempted a few times since then whenever a new exploit in VB is found, but I've managed to put in protections so they can't do much. Each time I see them attempting to edit the forum template with some kind of message.

Don't know If this Belongs here but What was the first ever Animation to exist In Stickpage?

Have a suggestion? Let's talk about it.

I wish there's an IRC Chat window in Stickpage forum
Since many people didn't (or maybe lazy to) install IRC Client, maybe we can put the client on the forum

If I'm not mistaken, stickpage.com is belong to crazy jay's personal website that used to post his stickfigure animations

You can see the history of this website here : https://web.archive.org/web/*/stickpage.com

that's actually a cool idea. surely there's an open source embeddable irc client around somewhere we could use?
