Idiot Ban - Make fun of your troublesome users... · **Released**: 06-26-2005

Who says banned people don't deserve a parting gift?

Show your banned members you care by sending them a little greeting - everytime they login to their account :devious:

This is similiar to Brad.Loo's hack in which his displays a 404 error, however this one redirects the user to a set flash animation making fun of the user. How Glorious!

Special thanks to Paul M for the redirection help :nervous:

how to install?

PHP Code:


			
1.Unzip the file
2.Upload the file "youare.swf" to the root directory (forum)
3.Install the plug-in
4.Harrass your banned users until they cry :ermm:

how do i change the page i want them to be redirected to? (how do i change the flash movie?)

PHP Code:


			
1.Open the file banidiot.xml
2.Change the redirection name from "youare.swf" to the new file.
3.Continue harrassing the banned until they beg to come back

how can i demo test this?
www.werebored.com/forum

PHP Code:


			
Username: test
Password: test

@defi - The swf file is in the wrong place - you have it the forum folder but are redirecting to the root. Either move the file or add the forum folder to the redirect

That's really weird as I'm not getting this error - instead I'm being directed to the forum root where it's located :ermm:

Eh, I'll duplicate it for the heck of it. :nervous:

Maybe browser dependant ? - put the full url (http://........) to be sure of where it redirects.

Hahaha what an evil hack..
/me clicks install
but 3.0.7 port would be nice

Lol this is great

. I'll be sure to add this when I upgrade

How did this wind up in code mods? This edits no code. This is a plugin.

Could a mod please fix this?

This Hack includes an additional (SWF) file.
According to our current Definition, it is not a Plugin then as it requires direct file access (for uploading the SWF).

Well so much for using the plugin instead of hard editing the global.php :ermm:

Wow this is great. I'd love a 3.0.7 port of this.

It looks simple enough but I was unable to do it myself (very novice coder).
