Spammers and Invite Codes

Greetings Journalers,

I apologize for the lack of updates about what's going on. We've been very busy working on other projects and with real life. That said, yes, we're requiring all new accounts to be created using Invite codes. Why? Because we're experiencing a massive amount of spam and it's causing a lot of problems on the server, specifically the database system. Any Permanent, Early Adopters, and Special Early Donator Accounts and Paid Accounts should have the ability to generate invite codes. I would like to extend the opportunity for everyone else to get invite codes without paying a single cent. Anyone who can report spam blogs to me (a comment on this entry will suffice) will get an invite code PER spam blog. A minimum of 10 spam blogs must be reported to get your invite code(s). I can then manually generate codes for you. If you'd rather pay, we have Permanent and Paid Accounts for sale. Permanent Accounts can be purchased for a one time $100 fee - payment can be sent to payments@scribbld.com (remember to include your username).

As mentioned we're not really actively developing Scribbld.com -- however there are some outstanding features and bugs we'd like to finish up and close in the near future.

We hope everyone is doing well and happy Spring!

Update: I've run out of codes, and it looks like they decided to remove the code/module which allows me to manually generate as many codes as I want from the codebase :( Boooo!! I'll try to come up with someone to fix this, in the meantime if you're feeling generous you can still let me know spam journals and I can get them removed from our site.
