'''April 8, 2017 - Spam'''<br>
I've installed [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/stopforumspam/ StopForumSpam] to remedy some recent spamming issues on the Emulation wiki. [[User:ITEM-3|ITEM-3]] ([[User talk:ITEM-3|talk]]) 11:50, 8 April 2017 (EDT)
It seems the wiki's captcha system ASIRRA is no longer supported, causing users without a validated email address to be unable to edit the wiki. This affects both GTW and EGW. I'm in the process of finding a suitable replacement. If you want to edit the wiki in the meanwhile, you can register an account and have a confirmation email sent to you by going to Preferences -> User Profile -> Email options.

UPDATE: I've replaced Asirra with QueryCaptcha. If problems persist, let me know in the /vr/ thread. [[User:ITEM-3|ITEM-3]] ([[User talk:ITEM-3|talk]]) 00:10, 28 October 2014 (EDT)
The server will be upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on Saturday night (May 17). The site (including [[emulation:Main Page|EGW]]) will be down for <s>1 hour</s> <s>2 hours</s> however long it takes. [[User:ITEM-3|ITEM-3]] ([[User talk:ITEM-3|talk]]) 23:46, 13 May 2014 (EDT)
The captcha settings have been updated to combat the ongoing spam problem. Anonymous and unconfirmed users may still edit the wiki, but they will be required to complete a captcha to create and edit pages. To get rid of the captcha, you need to register an account and confirm your email address. You can have a confirmation email sent to you by going to Preferences -> User Profile -> Email options.
