Marxist ßastard Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Allow me to inject (no pun intended) some reason into this thread:TES Source gets hacked monthly, and maybe even every couple of weeks."Someone else must've written it!" is about as believable as "the dog ate my homework."Automated attacks are cheaper and more feasible than manual ones, by many orders of magnitude.If someone were putting spam on forums via an automated attack, the text of the message would get hits on Google. Back when threads started by spambots were common on this board and weren't deleted instantly, the first responding post would often be to a Google results page.Registering a new account is faster and easier than hacking into someone else's account---again, by many orders of magnitude.A random stranger on the Internet doesn't stand to gain very much by messing with your head; also, any hacker skilled enough to gain control of two accounts in two seemingly unrelated instances probably has more important things to do.

Marxist ßastard Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 TES Source gets hacked monthly, and maybe even every couple of weeks.Say it isn't true, MB!Well, that would be the rate back from when the site was called TES Source, with an added fudge factor for time. In this post-9/11 world, I really don't know or want to know what the numbers for that are. Please correct me if you see fit---or is a webmaster's rate of attack like a woman's age?

Lord Slyther Posted June 25, 2008 Author Share Posted June 25, 2008 Say it isn't true, MB! My God! We haven't had this before! Dark0ne, I recommend contacting the nearest agencies possible. Please don't tell me the nexus is cursed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddah Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Marxist B just loves to stir the pot, I am becoming familiar with his style now. Dark0ne's response is quite Tongue in Cheek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I just read the post before you locked it down, and no **** you locked it down. I'm beginning to think there is a shadow behind the nexus, stalking the next users, I'm hoping it wouldn't be a moderator's account hacked. Imagine the terror if a mod's account was hacked! :ohmy: P.S. I'm going to discuss this matter alone with Dark0ne, since I was the first one to experience the hacking. I believe he knows what to do.

buddah Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Now give it a rest the poster rawrn00b is a ghost user i.e. loges in from many different places (I am one myself), I have just checked and he has posted from no less than 10 different ip addresses, if anyone of these was a public login (Internet Cafe), school or public library and he left the connection acrtive anyone could have used it, and I only went through the first dozen or so posts in his history. You are getting worked up over nothing. I closed that topic as I considered it a nuisance and contrary to the smooth operations of the forums, and it was reported as troublesome by other forum members, that is why there is a report button. Would you rather I make a baseless decision on the integrity of a member or accept his word, I personally will take someone''s word until such time that he proves himself to be untrustworthy. Dark0ne, is quite confident in his admin and moderators, if he wasn't we wouldn't be here as we serve at his pleasure and for as long as he allows.
