PFQ has had HTTPS for a while now, but there was still a small vulnerability where if you just type "pokefarm.com" in your browser it wouldn't use HTTPS until the server said "hoi, get secured!". Now the server sends a Strict-Transport-Security header. What this does is tell your browser to never ever connect to PFQ insecurely. So now, even if you specifically try to go to "http://pokefarm.com/", your browser will refuse and take you to the secured "https://pokefarm.com/" directly, thus closing the vulnerability. All websites should do this. Websites that do not use HTTPS are inferior to those that do In addition, I have added the Content-Security-Policy header. This acts as a whitelist for the browser, making it block any and all content that isn't specifically allowed by the policy. This helps reduce the risk of someone finding a XSS vulnerability in the site and exploiting it. However, since it is a whitelist system, I may have missed certain things that should be allowed. If you discover anything not working that should, please let me know so I can see if the CSP is responsible for blocking it. While this may have unintended side-effects, the overall gain is a more secure website and is totally worth it. The internet is a dangerous place, but with this update I hope that PFQ is now significantly safer from a technological perspective.

March
Date | Update |
---|---|
Mar. 24th | New players will have an option on the scouring page that allows them to buy the "Suitcase" that is needed to start scouring. |
Scour Boosts and Scour Slots can now be bought from the Scour page. | |
Mar. 23th |
|
Mar. 19th | The "Pokémon Selection" module - that is, the series of pop-up boxes you use to select Pokémon for things like Scour Missions and the DayCare - has been improved. When selecting a field, you get to see the field. Click on the Pokémon you want, confirm its info in the tooltip and click the "Select" button :) |
Mar. 16th |
|
Mar. 15th |
|
Mar. 14th |
|
Mar. 13th | Accidentally forgot to purge old interactions from the interactions table! x-x; That caused major problems at one point on the previous iteration of the site, so that was fixed.
It only took 9 hours at 100,000 interactions every minute... >.>;; That's a lot of interactions ^^; |
Mar. 11th | Further adjustments have been made to try and reduce to amount of deadlock errors; it will retry once if a deadlock occurs before relaying the error message to the user." |
Egg Supplier is a work-in-progress - expect completion in the coming week~ | |
Mar. 8th |
|
Mar. 7th | Boxes can now be viewed and opened. Access to the page is done through the item's tooltip, so it's easily available whenever you see a Box eg. from Scouring. |
Mar. 6th | Mechanics have been altered for scouring. Sending scours out at 0% energy is now more punishing. |
Mar. 4th | First post layout has been altered. There are other ideas behind displaying the information, but this has been selected for now. Further alterations may be made. |
Mar. 2th | Daycare had some major errors with cross-breeding (aka. special exceptions) eg. exclusives, Unown etc. - these have since been resolved, apologies for the inconvenience. As an additional experimental "quality of life" - change that we're testing out, scour-returns can now be sold from the tool-tip from returned scours. |
Mar. 1th | New scour mission layout! Instead of having everything displayed, each scour area is displayed in tabs! When each particular Tab is selected, the relevant information will be shown. This should be easier-going than what it originally was - feedback is appreciated! |
February
Date | Update |
---|---|
Feb. 29th | The Mass Click Weekend is now (lel I made a typo, sorry!) fully automated (in terms of giving out prizes - so Niet no longer has to be around to hand 'em out!) - staff can now upload the sprites that they make, making the whole process a lot easier! |
Scour Missions are back! | |
Feb. 23th |
|
Feb. 22th |
|
Feb. 21th |
|
Feb. 18th | Adding and removing Pokemon to/from the Daycare should now work. Obviously in case of errors, report them! |
Feb. 17th | Tutorial bugs should have been fixed now, thanks to someone finally making a report detailing what was going wrong! If you come across a bug, please don't just complain about it - report it so we can fix it! XD |
Users who unlocked Mega Evolution after the recode should now be able to collect their Key Stone and Mega Ring from the Lab. | |
Feb. 16th | The Tutorial has been programmed back in, so newer users can continue playing the game now. |
Feb. 15th | The tips for counters now have the usernames link to the user that they're associated with, by popular demand - apparently people liked that function! |
You can buy new Fields. They will be added to the end of your Fields list. | |
