Site Updates: Temporary Bans and Tracking
-
2017-03-12 at 5:34 AM UTCTwo things that I'm sure everyone is going to be thrilled about: staff (me) can now issue temporary bans that automatically expire so you won't end up perma banned if I'm wasted and forget to do the reversal. In anticipation of someone getting salty over it, there is a publicly visible ban log user profile pages so you can make "attn: lanny, eat shit" threads with confidence.
The other change is the introduction of page view tracking. Like ISS (the site code) the tracking code, [link=https://github.com/RyanJenkins/Houston]Houston[/link], is publically available so if you really care you can see exactly what is being tracked and how. It's worth pointing out no new information is being gathered, rather data that has, for the most part, been sitting in log files is now being indexed in the database so I can get a feel for traffic distribution and aggregate use patterns to drive design changes in the future. There are also some security audits that benefit from usage data.
There's no immediate effect to anyone, just wanted to put it out there before someone notices and accuses me of being a CIA plant.
