My Name Is Romance Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I use a different password for everything i visit. If i ever change browsers i don't know if i'll be able to remember every password i use. It sucks that people take a fun game and turn it into a vendetta.

Schattenmann Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 (edited) [quote name='ratonbox' date='28 February 2010 - 05:09 AM' timestamp='1267351981' post='2208084'] There was a warning about updating forums on this forum. Too bad for you that you didn't upgrade when everybody announced the hackings and possible exploits here. You should have payed more attention. And as a recommendation, use vBulletin, way more secure than most forums. I really do hope that every admin will check to see if their forums need updating. Sorry for the problem, though! [/quote] Why do the superior eggheads love to come down from their towers to chide people when this sort of thing happens? Thank you, daddy, now we know and knowing's half the battle. Here's one: Maybe nobody in RoK has a few hundred bucks to pony-up to switch over RIGHT NOW! and so they had to ride it out for a bit. Then of course the ever-present "X forum software [that no one uses and most have never heard of] is [i]sooooo[/i] much better anyway so it's a good thing you did get hacked maybe now you've learned your lesson and you can get a supercool [i]new[/i] forum." And I love that you edited-in the cheap "oh yeah, also sorry" as an afterthought. I'd say "blow it out your butt, dude," but of course that's already what you're doing.

I just corrected some spelling mistakes. It's not like I did the editing after somebody else posted. And I was just pointing out that there were these threads posted over here some time ago: http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=80924&hl=forum%20exploit%20warning&st=0 You even posted on it so you should know what's about. http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=80935&hl=forum%20exploit%20warning&st=0 Another thread about a forum being hacked. There's another thread, but i can't seem to find it right now. And again, I am sorry for this, because i know how awful it is to have to change all you related passwords, or make another email account, or setting up a new forum.
