Scratch

Make sure that people can't make accounts with a name that someone has already registered with. I just tried and succeeded.

Nicknames are not unique, but usernames are. 2 users CAN share a nickname, but CANNOT share a username

It looks a lot like bluetetra 

  I helped develop BlueTetra, but Servine changed it to look like this after my site came out

Interesting, but won't that make it confusing?

It's sort of like Steam. You can check someone's username by going to their profile and looking at the URL.

News and commenting added! Try it out, people! Handcoded it in a couple hours. Huge pain 

Alright tested out the commenting. 

You can now reply to comments!

Amazing, and simple. I registered as SpicyChorizo for no discernable reason.

Wooooooow.

Also, I'm working on something similar and I need a login/register user system. Any tips? Right now my biggest problem is password security.

It depends on what length you're willing to go for. Encryption is the most basic and least secure, but should be fine for a private site. Hashing should be enough for sites needing a little more, but if you want the most secure method, google "hashing with a salt", this method is more difficult to use but is what my site uses and is almost impossible to crack.

WOT says your site is dangerous.

Because it's a site90 domain which isn't trusted since there are no rules for it.

I like everything but the profile urls, no offence, but it's really ugly like that.  (I can't stand the scratch forum ones, either)  use .htaccess to rewrite those urls.

Hmm... I tried this in my htaccess but it didn't work...

Code:

# Do not remove this line, otherwise mod_rewrite rules will stop working
RewriteBase /

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
 
    
    ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
 
    RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ profile.html?username=$1
     RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ profile.html?username=$1
</IfModule>

rewrite rules should be

RewriteRule ^users/(.*)$ profile.html?username=$1

and you only need one of them.
