Lazy Bastard: /* History */

'''GSCentral''' is a [[Game Enhancer]] code site which has had two incarnations over the years. The database, while large, is filled with many untested codes which may or may not work.

==History==
GSCentral was created in 1998 by a person going by the name [[Jim Reinhart]]. At some point much later a clone of the site (''GSCentral.org'') was produced after [[Rune]] either was banned or left on his own (depending on who you wish to believe). The original lasted until sometime late 2005/early 2006, when it disappeared without any particular notice. The GSCentral.com domain was given to Lazy Bastard by [[Stinky613]], after Lazy Bastard promised it would never be given to Rune.

As of early October, 2006, the majority of GSCentral's veteran members (and staff) left due to dislike of Rune's recent administrative actions, and his bullshit regarding when the code database would be up. The exodus of the GSCentral members began when Rune took down the forum (the only thing left at GSCentral), and took away the administrative powers of the very people who made the site worth visiting (Parasyte, Viper187).

Many call the actions Rune took that day '[[Batshit fucking insane]]!', which is indeed quite accurate considering in just one night, Rune got rid of all of the talented and capable individuals at GSCentral, and soon replaced them all with a bunch of clueless newbies.

Not too long after the exodus, the GSCentral Forums were hacked by unknown person(s).
It is unknown at this time whether or not those who did the hacking were ever caught, or found out.
But it is rumored to be the doing of a coalition between [[GameFAQs]], [[NSider]], and [[Haxxor World]].

== Present ==
The reason given for taking the code database down was to prevent "thieves" from stealing their content. The irony of it all is that GSCentral gets a large amount of its content from other sites, and often fails to give proper credit. Since then more codes have been added but it is not known whether or not the codes have been credited.

After a ridiculous amount of procrastination, the database was ''technically'' restored. There is no way to browse codes, and is only accessible though a buggy search box.

== Technical Information ==
The hosting is provided by the German host [http://all-inkl.com/eng/index.php?cna=&cnb= All-Inkl]. It runs on Apache Apache 1.3.36, and has PHP 4.4.2, FrontPage extension 5.0.2.4803, mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0404142202, mod_ssl 2.8.27, and OpenSSL 0.9.6i. Due to circumstantial evidence, it is presumed to have access to a MySQL database.

The newly added search function has a limitation of only accepting 3 or more characters. Non-alphanumeric characters are stripped. For example, you can't search for "C-12" and get the game "C-12 - Final Resistance", but the full name of the game gives results. The maximum search string is 8,197 bytes (8 kilobytes exactly). After this, the server gives an HTTP 414 error, complaining about the input being too large.

Each game is split into pages. Each page has a likely unique key generated and checked for by mcrypt. Each key is 32 characters in length. Invalid (but of the right length) keys give this error:

'''"''' ''An error occurred. We are unable to satisfy your request. Please contact the webmaster to notify him of this error. Upon contacting us if you could provide the URL address you tried to access and details on where you found this hyperlink it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. We apologize for the inconvenience.'' '''"'''

It has been discovered that nowhere near the quantity of codes that should be up actually are. Recently however more codes have been added. It is not known whether or not the codes taken from other sites have been completey credited.

== '''Kodewerx''' ==

The origins of '''Kodewerx''' go back to March 5th, 2002, when the original "Codewerx" website launched in retaliation against [[GSCentral]] and their holier-than-thou attitudes. It should be no surprise that the new Kodewerx was launched for similar reasons. This time around, with a slightly different name (due to domain name issues) and a much larger supporting user base.

Kodewerx was founded on October 1st, 2006, and launched the Kodewerx Content Manager (KCM) project. KCM is designed on the idea that a website's users are its most important asset. KCM gives its users a certain level of control over the website content.

== '''The KCM''' ==

KCM is a Content Management System based around phpBB v2.0.21. It installs alongside phpBB and uses some of its configuration settings automatically, to easily integrate into your current phpBB environment.

KCM is designed as a community-driven website, where your users control the content in a weighted-voting manner. Users can add their own categories and sub-categories, which will initially be placed into "New Submissions". At this point, other users are able to vote 'yes' or 'no' for these categories to be added to the site permanently. Once added permanently, a category can be requested for deletion by any user, whereby other users can vote 'yes' or 'no' for permanent removal from the site.

In addition to submission and deletion of categories and sub-categories, the owner of the category as well as administrators and moderators may edit the categories as required. Moderators can be assigned to access KCM moderation features through customizable phpBB Usergroups.

Content creation under categories and sub-categories is supported by configurable content formats, defined by regular expressions. All content creation is handled in the same way as categories and sub-categories, with a weighted voting system and administrator and moderator control.

Finally, user-submitted content can be limited to phpBB Usergroups, if you prefer to have a more 'open' or 'secure' content submission medium.

A standard phpBB forum can be linked to the KCM news page. Each initial post for any topic posted to the KCM news forum will appear on your KCM home (news) page. The number of news posts displayed is configured by the "Posts Per Page" setting in your phpBB configuration.
