A question
in Help
Grand master is rare, because it takes a significant amount of time and contribution. A lot of the ranks are time gated, as cisco mentioned. Because some people want the rank and just spam non-helpful content to try and get it. Same with the Contributor group - you can't just get it by posting a lot quickly.

Hey everyone!
We recently had a community member, @Ferib reach out to us about a Lua service they created. We're sharing it here for any of our serious power-users to take advantage of, or just try out if it sounds of interest! Let us know how it goes. On to Ferib's description:
QuoteGameGuardian is only partially able to protect your Lua script out of the box as I noticed most people pre-compile Lua bytecode (5.2) in an attempt to hide the actual script. This however is not effective as the compiled Lua bytecode represents the exact functionality of the Lua script, except that it is not in a human-readable form, giving a false feeling of security.
This is where LuaObfuscator dot com comes into play, we specialize in 'transforming' your script while maintaining the exact same functionality. This is achieved by adding junk code, extending if statements with opaque conditions, and other clever tricks. This whole process is called 'obfuscation' as is designed to make it harder for humans to understand.
Obfuscation is not encryption, encrypting a Lua script is somewhat pointless as it has to be decrypted before it can be used.
To demonstrate some transformations on the code, have a look at the following inputs and outputs from the LuaObfuscator.com tool:
Input: https://i.imgur.com/g703E4v.png
Output after CFFv1: https://i.imgur.com/rvTOHM2.png
Output after if-statements: https://i.imgur.com/adQ6ZOD.png
Output after minify: https://i.imgur.com/YYzfAE5.pngOur service is freely available at https://luaobfuscator.com, enjoy! (To start using this, go to the website and use the 'live IDE', at the moment you have to erase the demo Lua code and overwrite it with yours)
NOTE: The current version (v0.1.5b) is in Alpha and might be a bit buggy, please post bug/issues or give feedback, thanks!

It generates a different package name to avoid detection of anti-cheat.

i forgot to ask.
when we hide our post/comment..
will it remain hidden forever and we cant access it anymore?
or we can undo the hide somehow?
Should be able to unhide it. Try it and see
EDIT:
Nvm, only staff can see and unhide it
QuoteHidden content is visible to staff but not regular users.

Yes I believe so. It helps anyone 'soft delete' something if they receive hate over it but don't want it removed completely.

Hmm..any new perks for us Contributor?
one i discovered that i can now edit my post from last week.
its that a feature for all users or what?
anyway many big THANKS.
Bigger inbox, larger attachment size/limit, can post without needing mod approval in certain sections, use cover photo, gif as profile picture. Probably more I'm forgetting. The idea is greater level of trust has been earned, so less limitations. Both Ascended and Contributors also don't see any ads.

Hello all,
After seeing many of our regular and engaged members...ascend to the Ascended group, I figured it may be helpful to have a higher group who help above and beyond even that.
This new group is Contributor! The main criteria for this elite group is post count, membership time, community and reputation rank, showing that the community here finds them helpful.
I am pleased to welcome @cisco72563, @sammax71, @CmP, @HEROGAMEOfficial, @Collen, @MAARS and @MonkeySAN as our first Contributors
You will continue to see people being promoted as they are more active and post more as well.

Rebuilding achievements now since they were broken, should be the last broken thing

I've made another change that will take a few minutes to propagate (if you notice broken images just wait a few minutes).

As stated, there was an issue with attachments. Should be working as of now.

This is a known bug in the software that is awaiting developer patch upstream.

Hello all,
Long time no talk, sorry about that. As part of our regular update and refactoring, the site's been updated again. I believe the cookie issue only exists when using `/download` page now. Regarding that, we're planning on moving the community to `/` instead of `/forum` which will fix that. This is a major change so It may or may not happen soon or in the future.
Also working on sorting through attachment errors.

oh btw he did that too countless many times before..
Hmm, I'll keep testing, but the main issue was existing cookies were stored on /, instead of /forum/, which should now be remedied. If he still has those cookies (they persist even if his browser closes/signs out), then the issue will keep continuing.

I cannot reproduce anymore. Here's what I did:
- Log out.
- Clear cookies/data for just gameguardian.net from Chrome's settings.
- Close browser.
- Open gameguardian.net in browser.
- Login.
- Log out.
- Login.
Because some cookie settings were changed, old cookies might be causing the login to fail, thus locking the account.

"Code" option is missing (again?) from toolbar of private messages editor in desktop version of the site.
It's a known bug that the IPS has released a patch for - I'll try and get it applied.
Login issues should be solved now. I think. Please try logging out and in again and let me know.
I was also trying to change the structure of some things with the site and it didn't go over well, so I rolled those back. Need to speak with my favorite dev about that

ok.
i was able to log-in for now.
glad i didnt reset my password again...
Yes, I manually unlocked your account
Sorry about that

I am able to reproduce the issue, by logging out and trying to log in. I've asked support for help on this.
For the time being, I've disabled the lock account feature.

Definitely still some login issues for some people. This is all blocx is getting when he tries to log in. Display name & password are correct.
That's.... odd. Considering sign in function has nothing to do with cookies and cache (which were previously the issue)

Hey all,
Enabled Cloudflare again after making some site changes. Let me know if you see any login issues again.

I was helping someone in private messages and noticed there's no way to insert code box's in replies/messages on mobile is it possible to do this?
Weird, that had gone away on the mobile toolbar. Is it available to you now?

For the Ascended folks: Do you want the download banner (homepage and downloads section)? I was thinking I should remove it for you since you already have GG

1. Default activity stream page - https://gameguardian.net/forum/discover/ - has outdated data when it is loaded. Shortly after this it gets an update and offers to display new items that are up-to-date, but after being reloaded the page will contain outdated data again.
I guess caused by Cloudflare cache, which is off for now.

Yes, I am waiting for support to fix, as I said earlier.
Login issues should be fixed for now. If not, clear your cookies. What a clusterfuck

Sorry everyone for the issues earlier. Was optimizing some things and came across a race condition in the software. Mostly everything is back to normal now, except reaction images missing; waiting for the site software devs to take a look.
Also - Ascended have no ads now

@Sysadmin I just noticed that the code block tool have been removed, i can not type highlighted code anymore
Added it back on mobile/tablet.

I'm sure they'll add a frontend way to check what you are missing. For now:

@Sysadmin can you please check whether edit posts functionality works properly? The possibility to edit posts for first N minutes after publication seems to be unavailable for me. Moreover, possibility to edit messages in private conversations is gone as well.
The setting is still there:
QuoteCan edit own content up to 45 minutes after posting

Error while uploading files.

Sorry for the delay on this y'all, I was away for a bit. The issue was affecting new uploads because of security changes we recently made.
Should be resolved now.
