I doubt that to, its a little late now though as the forum is gone :(

it probably ain't gone gone. They have the backups.

But would be a waste paying for it, with the chances being quite high for it to happen again.

I think Duffman should make all forums have a randomly generated password and emailed to them. also have it so member number 1 cant chnage the password or cant use words in a dictionary.

Like Aaron Adon and Enigma said the password where good enough to prevent a crack without some sort of program but on some way he or she did managed to break into the admin cp.

It would certainly no doubt about that but they where secure not 100 % but still. Everything is sorted out there is a new FS under a other name i can't provide a link in this message but if you look the bottom of my message you will see it.

Yes, we can certainly help.

First you should see how they got in. If you know that yu know which part to enfore.

You cannot actually requesta password you can only request to change it. So if Duffman is willing to check if someone had requested "forgotten password" just before that you know that it is probably your email that is faulty.

From your board being closd I assume that it was #1 admin that they came in, so it isn't like it would take more than quicke search.

Proxies change, and are created by the hunderds every week, so its impossible to block all of them, but we can make a try to make it at least harder for people to find a proxy. I have lists and lists of proxies, I haven't updated it in a while, but alot of proxies are blocked on my board already. It would only take me about an hour to find another thousand (not a exaggeration)

Because do you know that most people look for a proxy through Google. Its that easy, but you can make it hard just by doing the serch yourself before that.

You should wait before trying to start all over, perhaps you did not consider that because they came back and deleted the board, we now have even more info on IPs, how they got in, etc. It is no harder for us to restore your board even now.

So just hold tight, don't go throwing away what you built and start a new forum.

The stupid people come in the night!


What i'm always here at night.

Oooh, wait by that time its morning already. I almsot thought you were calling me stupid (that would make it strike 3 aand they say that if somebody tells you 3 times its normally true) :D :D

BTT: Uhm, IF probably has too much integrity to make an IP public. But of course it can slip, like 10 times like it did with Kurapika's IP. :D
