Weeding out spam user accounts
Just a small and quick update. I forgot to add some spam protection on the account registration which led to some suspicious accounts.
nodyfxgqm, ynqsyh, srfempu, tfiubhjkoqa, if you are legitimate users, please tell me in the next 7 days. Otherwise these accounts will be deleted. I strongly support anonymity, so such account names are welcome. But due to the previously missing robot protection this are more likely to be non-flesh intruders.

Bounties upped, poll, things
Jago stepped up and doubled the amount of the .lit support and hint/skip/detail bounties for aguirRe’s tools. They are both 50$ now. Sweet!
I have not heard back from the Ogg Vorbis bountieer. If you read this, please send me a sign of life.
The origin brush bounty might be unnecessary. Enter Urre:
Origin brushes are overrated, you can do fine with the func_rotating->info_null combo to get origin, no need to specify it manually. (Or was it called rotate_object?)
I’m starting to feel like I should make a tutorial for this, as it’s still a problem.
If that would solve the issue for mappers, Urre would get the bounty.
← I can haz a mew poll.
I did not work on the site.
Everyone loves negke.
