Moblog is about sharing, communicating, playing with new gadgets, and above all having fun!
We love this site so much, we decided to give up some time everyday to help manage it.
Welcome to moblog news. Your community-powered site support hub.
This is one of three moderator-only moblogs, set up by the moderators for all mobloggers.
We are going to use this blog to publish all appointments, decisions and policy changes made between the moderation and site admin teams behind the scenes.
Follow this group to get updates on how the site is developing and to get an insight into what goes on to keeping the good-ship Moblog sailing!
If there is an event, appeal, point of contention or call to action which you feel is strongly relevant to the Moblog community and you would like it posted here please contact Viv or nige or any of the moderators, to broadcast your message via moblog news.
We must say it is great to have moblog zipping along and some old friends returning as well as new bloggers.
Just to keep you up to date...
Moblog has four new and one not quite so new adminstrators.
Swamprose some time back wanted to 'kill' spam etc and moved to admin' status to be able to do the task. She was joined earlier this year by Crickson, Spiderbaby, Taniwha and Viv, who all now help do the moblog housekeeping!
Moblog has a new server. We've upgraded both our hardware and our software. More up to date versions of everything should mean a much faster and more stable site. Some things may be a little wobbly for the next couple of days, but we're working hard to make sure it's all OK. If you spot any issues, please let someone know here or via the contact page.
If you have a custom domain, you'll need to update your records. The new IP address is 95.172.239.12
For the technically inclined, the specs are - Quad Core Intel Xeon 2.53Ghz CPU, 8GB RAM, 4 x 500GB disks in a RAID array. Debian Linux operating system.
We seem to be under a weird yet sustained attack at the moment from spambots adding random inappropriate comments to posts all over the site. We are doing our best to remove them as they come up but it would really help if you could adjust your privacy settings so that only registered users can comment on your blogs. This will help keep your lovely blogs nice and spam-free until we can find a better way to fight back.
To change your settings, go to "Profile" > "Privacy" > "Who can comment on my blog" switch to "registered users only".
