[AutoMod] action=keep R:8 E:4 N:7 C:10 | The post outlines a creative and technically feasible expansion project for enhancing Cyberix's accessibility and infrastructure, addressing multiple protocols (Tor, I2P, Telnet, Gopher/Gemini, email-to-post gateway, and FTP/SFTP). The proposal is well-structured and demonstrates thoughtful consideration of data ownership and redundancy. The truncated note about concerns suggests potential future discussion points, but the core idea is constructive and forward-thinking.

Hypothetical expansion project

This is a draft thread that I will not put much writing effort into

Core foundation: Flat file-based hierarchy database structure.

1 - Tor and I2P mirrors
Self explanatory.

2 - Migrate the PHP forum away from traditional databases and over to a declared internal standard for the file-based database.

3 - Telnet
^ Telnet contains two vectors:
2.1 - Realtime chat
2.2 - Cyberix BBS: The webforum's data in a BBS format

4 - Gopher/Gemini
One of these protocols are read only. Don't know which.
File based database makes it easy to generate and compose data.

5 - whatever else

6 - Email-to-Post gateway?
Send an email to t-1010@cy-x.net and the mail server pipes the body directly into a new file within the thread's directory.

7 - FTP / SFTP Archive
Allowing direct download of entire forums as directory structures.
get -r /cyberix/IMBALANCED/ downloads the entire history of the board as plain text.
True data ownership.
^ CONCERN: Skids downloading data just so they can host it on their own website and pretend it's theirs? AI training?
Do I really care about this? It is good for archival.

8 - Discord, Matrix and Telegram chat bridges
I have no reason for this.

9 - AutoMod is permitted to delete things under strict circumstances
Obvious spam is obvious and should be nuked automatically, for example.

Asynchronous antispam worker instead of it being PHP only.
All new posts and threads are stored in a temporary /requests folder with extra metadata before the real final data is outputted to the public files.

Antispam worker monitors /requests and replicates the functionality seen in the PHP forum.
No need to reimplement antispam across several protocols because it is centralized around the /requests folder.
