Ok, yes it works on main website for me.

Is the reason it is not applied to forum because of bandwidth issues? File is 20kb, so probably the reason if it is constantly being used (although it should get cached). Our avatars are only ~2kb for comparison.

I remember we had this discussion several times over the past decade, most likely in this very thread.

Oh.  Well I don't see me bookmarking the main site just to get a Favicon working. :P

I understand if it's bandwidth problems, but that must have been a while ago.  Surely 20kb, cached for all regular users, wouldn't be too much?

I doubt it's a bandwidth problem. Gob just forget to link to the image, or put another one in the forum's folder as it's working for me now. :)

Hmm, still not showing up and I did a ctrl+shift+r to clear site cache.

But now looking at thumpers post http://forum.dune2k.com/favicon.ico image is not showing up for me. So maybe my adblock is blocking it, but I have no idea why it would. disabled adblock+ and it showed up in link, but is not on forum yet. :( enabled adblock+ and it is showing in thumpers post. But ctrl+shift+r still not getting it to show up in bookmarks or tabicon or addressbar

Shouldn't be adblock as link was working when I last posted, can't find any related links in adblock database.

EDIT:

icon works fine on windows+firefox+adblock. Maybe it'll work when I boot back into ubuntu.

EDIT:

Hurray! working in ubuntu firefox now.

I was going to make a post earlier about the favicon still not working under Firefox, but it looks like it was probably just something akin to a DNS issue.  Everything seems to be working fine on the icon front.  It is most refreshing. :)

EDIT: Oh lord, pun not intended.

The file in the forum was just an empty favicon.ico file so that is why nothing was displaying earlier. Not sure why... it wasn't a bandwidth issue as we have lots of that. I just replaced it with the one used on the actual website which is why it works now.

Yeah, the user I've seen do the most damage is kruthika.  The bot seems to copy a paragraph of legitimately posted material from other threads in the board, use a scrap of that paragraph as the thread title, then add on spam hyperlinks to the end of the post.

I think it's safe to say that he can be banned, and all of his posts deleted. >:(
