AvantGo Access Restored
Posted by Jason Dunn in "UPDATE" @ 09:25 AM
By now, all of you using AvantGo should be seeing it working again with this site. We've created a special page for AvantGo that is zero levels deep - meaning you'll get the front-page stories, but no links to any other pages, including the discussions. We're taking this step in order to contain AvantGo - it's unfortunately all too easy with their system for someone to create a custom channel that delves three levels deep, and all of a sudden we have their crawlers pulling down dozens of forum threads. This solution is a balance between giving those of you using AvantGo access to our content, and protecting the stability of our server. Feedback welcome!
