It’s on!

BanLinkIt's finally official, after many weeks of development, BanLink is live! Oh sure, we have a whole bunch of enhancements planned, but it's up and it's stable, it's working great, and it's ready for release.

BanLink is a project developed by Travis Lambert and myself. Simply put, this is a free, open-source system to allow land owner groups to share their ban lists with like-minded groups. It's *not* a global ban list, though. What it does is allows groups to share data, opt-in to other group ban lists. And once you opt-in to another groups ban list, anyone the other group has banned will then be banned from you land. At the same time, you can still unban people from the other list to allow those that are banned from the other group to have access to your land only.

It's been brought to my attention that I'm a bit cryptic on this site at times with my postings. This is one of those cryptic things I've mentioned in the past. Travis and I have been working many a late night getting this thing up and running, but I've not been able to say a whole lot about it. We're pretty satisfied with how things work right now, I hope it receives a good response.

  1. Wow, that’s a nifty little website. (I had no idea of the volume of bans at the Shelter) Thanks to both you and Travis for making this. Nice intergration of yourselves into the logo and header bar. :)
