Thanks to some script-kiddies being active in the comment section, I was forced to add a banning system to the blog.

From now on, every suspicious activity like trying to spam the comment section (which won’t work, since Akismet will get you anyway) or trying to SQL inject the database with whatever you think is funny (eg. Admin account) will get you BANNED!

The poor bastards that got caught will be publicly humiliated with their IP shown on this page: http://projectstealth.lennardf1989.com/banned/

They will also be presented with this page when they try to access the site:
http://projectstealth.lennardf1989.com/bancheck/banned.htm

So, some word of advice, don’t try anything strange, because I will get you no matter what.

Sorry guys, my host is setting up a huge community website and he needs yet another PHP upgrade and a MySQL upgrade for that. Within a few minutes/hours this site may be inaccessible, jerky, messed up, whatever you can think up.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I’ll try to get it back up as soon as possible.

The blog has been completely converted to PHP5 usage (except the mail notifier, it’s dead for some reason, probaly have to make my own plugin for it, but not now :D).

Anyway, as you might notice, the blog now has a new theme and header (the theme is based upon the header to make it suit). I hope you guys like it.

Most of you guys probably didn’t noticed, but both the blog and the forum were offline for some time. They are back up now as you can see, sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Hurray! After a lot of hassle I finally fixed the new PHP installment (5.05) together with my host. For some reason the new settings were totally off the old ones, so it had to be fixed, as some of you might have noticed yesterday and today.

At first it wouldn’t want to show any errors at all, after having that fixed with my .htaccess I got some strange errors within the installed plugins. But hey, everything is fixed now and up and running.

Expect a new update soon, and don’t forget to check out our new tick tock additions on the forum: http://www.projectstealthgame.com/.

Dear Project Stealth fans,

Exactly 1 week ago it was April the first, also known as April Fools Day. As part of a good relation with the community, we thought it would be nice to have something to joke around with. Of course, it would need to be somehow related to Project Stealth. It all started March 12nd. Yours truly, as PR, made a post about April Fools, in which the following ingenious plan was made: around March 23rd, we’d disallow any negative talk about game distributors, 3 days before 1st of April, a new Tick Tock thread would have been made, and then…. at la moment supreme, the April Fools page would show up.

Of course, things didn’t really go as planned, but more later. I asked Bionic-Blob to make some cool renders, with the rocket-launcher from a modeling-archive. Posing the Spy would take some time. In the meantime, I made a text and passed it to Slowhand, our writer, who completely rewrote it. I had to edit a few parts later to make it more PS-ish, but it’s generally his text. Of course, the fresh announcement of the new rule wasn’t being taken well, which I expected. However, some overreacted, like Vega ( ) and it wasn’t long until we were compared to the Nazis and Ubisoft. As some members pointed out, the new rule was completely nonsense and not logical, because there was hardly an offense in the first place. Others apparently didn’t see these wise words, but continued being angry, which was funny for a while, but turned a bit more serious every day. This amount of hostility wasn’t like I expected, so I switched to Damage Control(tm). There was some effect on some fans, but others kept being upset. This probably had to do with me editing/deleting a lot of posts, in order to ‘enforce’ the rule. Note that I planned to remove the thread from the very beginning. Editing was funny, but I felt bad for some of you. I could see some be totally hysterical over a deleted post.

By then the posing of the Spy was done, and I had made a small HTML page. I played around with borders and colors and the images of the new renders. Bionic-Blob made his own version of the text at the final day, but a quick poll showed Slowhand’s version was preferred, so it was there to stay. A few hours before it would be 1st of April (UTC +1, my local time), I edited the forum’s index-file, to check for a so-called session. If it wasn’t there, it would set the session and then automatically relay your browser to the merger-file. A refresh of the original index would see the session and so the normal forum would be visible again. Precisely at 0:00, the new code was in effect. After verifying everything went OK, I waited 30 minutes to enjoy the fireworks. It was nice.

The following pages have been updated with new information:
- Developers
- Milestones; Since we finished one, new milestone added.
- Removed the Downloads page, since it ain’t something for a blog. Please visit the ModDB page for some screenshots, check the Presentation section of the forum or check the unofficial Photobucket album, which has a collection of all things found on the forum.

You can access the remaing pages by clicking the right links found underneath the header.

I added a FAQ page to the blog with a link to an other page which describes how to enable/disable the e-mail post notifications.

I also modified the e-mail template a little, but I won’t get into details on that. Furthermore, I optimized the e-mail sending even more. Though, I don’t know if it’s a bug or my e-mail adress acting weird, but it may happen e-mails get ’stuck’ and won’t be send.

If you notice a new entry on the blog but you didn’t receive an e-mail on it (even though you registered to them), please report it.

Thank you and have a good day.

I finally updated the blog to it’s final state (as far as the normal user can see :P) and it’s finally ready for the big work.

The update includes:
- Finished the comments theme
- When registered, you can enable e-mail notifications on new entries
- Tweaked the theme a bit
- Some optimizations

I also have some other great news. Me and some others are granted to keep you guys updated on the non-graphical side of Project Stealth (like coding). Hurray!

So register yourself and enable e-mail notifications so your the first one to know whats happening in the land of updates!

Happy new year all!

The ModDB voting days are over and we are eagerly waiting for the final results on how we did.

Project Stealth is coming along good, so is it programming-wise, we made some decisions here and there but we are really getting somewhere.

Thanks for all the support and up till the next update!
