after receiving a report from Z2K I have finally activated all the pending bbs registrations in bulk. Thank you Z2K!

Unfortunately we had a lot of registrations of users 'Buycialisonline' and 'downloadPHOTOSHOP'. All of these were using some email addy @mail.ru - without exception. I have checked all accounts created using a mail address of *@mail.ru and found lots of people like 'jdhficbvjhyx' and 'ihfidsvwzu'... so I decided to ban mail.ru from the list of allowed email addresses used for registration. I also deleted every user using one of these addresses if they had a post count of zero. This will free the username and allow you to re-register using a different email address. Just in case you're not an illegal bot.

I know I said no more user pruning but I really don't want to have any pharmacy sellers in our database.

Starting immediately I will manually activate all registrations. This way I have a chance to contact any dubious people before banning them. I apologize in advance for the registration delay...

I hope everybody is fine with this solution.

Google, Inc. the company who is spying on us for decades has brought it's espionage to a whole new level. In order to further propagate their economic interests, they're now recording every website you're visiting in order to create profiles of your internet use, identify your interests and bombard you with personalized advertisements.

Until now advertisements were shown which were matching the content of the website containing the google advertisement code. By constantly spying on the visitors they can create very detailed profiles which may be linked to other databases including your country, street address, and name. Google also knows the content of the private letters you write using the Google word processor. They know the locations you have watched in Google Earth. They know the addresses you have searched in Google maps.

This week I got a request from Google, Inc. to make certain changes to my Terms of Service and the Privacy documents. Which means, this change is a breakthrough in "reversed privacy" and definitely has legal implications.

It's impossible to turn off this "technology" on All Anime World. The privacy of my visitors is very important to me. I will forfeit the $15 in my google account and remove the google ad code from All Anime World immediately.

Although the new "technology" could significantly increase the revenue of my website (i.e. EUR 0.53 this March) this feels like spying and robbing of my visitors. If possible I will relocate the ad code to some other place.

Yesterday our server died while doing a standard system upgrade. We had a nice reinstall and finally managed to fix our email problems. Email was broken when moving to this server and nobody told me - again! Kitty is sad.

I have finally updated the  Fan Fiction page with new stories. Enjoy. Thanks to Dinky, Kira, xXemobunnyXx, and yuki_tenshi (in alphabetical order).
