  • Arcticfox has been promoted to a eXceem moderator
  • The difference between moderators and super-moderators has been removed, and all moderators will have super-moderator powers. Over time I'll rename this to something more meaningfull
  • Amanda has left the mod team as she no longer has the time to dedicate to eXceem
I am sure you will all welcome Arcticfox as a mod, and I would like to thank him for joining the team! ]]> News Jon http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/49835-exceem-moderator-updates.html http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/49835-exceem-moderator-updates.html Lockerz http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eXceem-News/~3/442L63X8vBo/49080-lockerz.html Thu, 22 Oct 2009 10:29:06 GMT A new site, called Lockerz has been doing the rounds, a slightly different format to most sites on eXceem, but it could still give you freebies.

As from around 7PM on Sunday 7'th June 2009, the hosting provider used by both freebiejeebies and ForFree4U has been compromised in what appears to be a hacking attack.

The problem is due to a exploit that existed in the software their hosting provider uses to manage their many machines (we are probably taking about 400+ at a educated guess)

At this moment in time every effort is being made to manually check each machine, to ensure it is clean, then turn it back online.

Time for another of our great competitions and this one's a big one!

We're going to give away either a Ford Fiesta or £5,000 cash!

To enter all you've got to do is get one referral between the start and end dates of the competition who completes an offer (pendings will count but if they revoke will be removed from the competition)

There will be a weekly competition and 5 lucky winners will receive a golden ticket (an entry into the main competition to win the car) and 2 of these will also receive a bonus referral credit. The main draw will take place at 12.00pm on Sunday 6 December 2009.


There's a limit of 5 entries per week, and one person can win up to a maximum of 5 golden tickets for the main prize draw.

We've also kept back 20 golden tickets just for you eXceemers and will be awarding them throughout the competition period for other things ;)

Please go here for the entry form: The Car Competition! and be sure to read the rules for full terms and conditions. The competition starts at midnight tonight so happy referring. (There will be a tab on every site from tomorrow linking to the form)

We're giving you advance notice because we thought some of you might like to mention the car comp on your websites (might be a sweetener to get them to sign up!)

Thanks
Richard & Alex
FJ

With the recent global financial slowdown (GFS), commonly referred to as the Credit Crunch (CC), this has caused a knock on effect on eXceem The Free Community (ETFC).

Due to a marked drop in advertising income, and members sharing their eXceem eXtra accounts (as well as ignoring the donations page) funding for eXceem has plummeted in an exponitional mannor.

In the past when eXceem has sold ad-on services, it has been done in such a way its been adding value (AV) to members accounts, rather than restricting access to such features/services and forcing members to pay.

This approach has failed.

Therefore a new approach has been concieved, with a much extended range of services and feature upgradings (ROSAFU). These have been simply called "eXceem Services" (ES)

The new data centre has better network links (though in reality it wont make any different to you and me when we are browsing eXceem) as well as a much more energy efficent setup.

This will take place between 2am - 4am CDT, which if I have worked it out correctly will be between 7am - 9am UK time. I expect once the server is handed back to me I will need to spend 30 mins max updating new settings (mainly IP addresses)

However, since the IP will be changing this means that the new IP's will need to propengate over the many DNS servers ISP's use, which could mean a delay for some people in being able to access eXceem, the most this will be is 48 hours, however I transfered a domain over yesterday as a test and for me and a few others on different ISP's it took less than 10 mins, so fingers crossed that will be the case.

In the worst case situation and someone drops the server and breaks something etc I will post updates to eXceems twitter feed - Twitter / eXceem - to keep people updated. All data gets backed up hourly/daily/weekly to various facilities as well as me taking regular backups to my home pc so all posts are safe :)

On the plus side the server is geting a free ram upgrade to make up for the inconvience of the move, this will help the server cope with more people on it at the same time. ]]> News Jon http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/40333-exceem-downtime-march-5th-2009-a.html http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/40333-exceem-downtime-march-5th-2009-a.html <![CDATA[Boffer Sell off 2'nd March 2009]]> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eXceem-News/~3/uZR1afFJdBQ/40189-boffer-sell-off-2nd-march-2009-a.html Sun, 01 Mar 2009 10:24:23 GMT Boffer are having another sell off starting on 11.59PM Monday 2'nd March 2009, have been told to expect a fair selection of consumer electronics and some prams!! ]]> News Jon http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/40189-boffer-sell-off-2nd-march-2009-a.html http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/40189-boffer-sell-off-2nd-march-2009-a.html New Feature on eXceem Live Topics http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eXceem-News/~3/5ibvRX9-eAI/39615-new-feature-exceem-live-topics.html Sun, 15 Feb 2009 22:03:53 GMT A new feature on eXceem has been added called Live Topics (http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/lounge/39567-new-feature-live-topics.html).

Yesterday saw the launch of stage 1 of the Facebook integration with all live kudos sites. This means that you can now login and new users can register using your Facebook credentials. Another feature is the ability to post status updates for all your friends to see from any kudos site. There are pre-written status clips for use or you can write your own.

In the months to come this feature will be improved and enhanced with loads of addons planned.

Judging by the press release it appears that they have struck a deal and got hold of some of the stock that was planed to head to a popular high street store which unfortunately went into administration so it could be a good one!

I will include the press release contents in the next post, so as not to clog up the front page. ]]> News Jon http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/39551-boffer-sell-off-15th-feb-2009-a.html http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/news/39551-boffer-sell-off-15th-feb-2009-a.html Boffer Sell Off http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eXceem-News/~3/q_MZiLsOEZ8/38963-boffer-sell-off.html Thu, 29 Jan 2009 18:54:24 GMT Friends of eXceem Boffer (http://www.boffer.co.uk/) are having another sell off, you can find the full details at Boffer (http://www.boffer.co.uk/), or join eXceem members discussing it in this forum thread (http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/lounge/36244-boffer-sell-off.html). *Update!* Have...

As the title says, you can now link your facebook account with your eXceem account, or new members can simply join using their facebook account.

If you want to link your eXceem account to your facebook account then you have to do the following
  1. Logout of eXceem
  2. Click on the Facebook Connect logo under the text boxes to enter in your eXceem username and Password.
  3. A facebook popup will appear asking if you want to give permission for Facebook to talk to eXceem
  4. On the next page, click on the Want to use your existing username? link, and log into eXceem as you normally would
  5. Your eXceem and Facebook account should now be linked
Be sure not to type in a new nickname as that would result in multiple accounts being created.

Currently any new pm's/subscribed threads will show as a facebook notification, in future this will be extended to create a new wall item when you create a thread on eXceem

You can control notifications on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/editaccount.php?notifications
