Looks like everything's been cleaned up and sorted now, I can't see the extra forums anymore. Oh well, fun while it lasted <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

basically, Mr. Hacker deleted all of the threads. and the root admin (5hfifty).<br><br>so, they had to put all the threads in to one forum and put them all in their respective places. looks like 5himon has been put back too.

Yes I was wondering what was wrong, it just said "Li" whcih means something offensive in Vietemese no doubt. Or it could be his hacker psudonym, though maybe I'm just thinking of Cowboy Bebop where hackers reutinely have them <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> .<br><br><!--QuoteBegin--> <table border='0' align='center' width='95%' ><tr><td class='quotetop'><b>Quote:</b> </td></tr><tr><td class='quotebody'> I suppose, I can still throw stuff at you though right?<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table> <!--QuoteEEnd--><br><br>You can throw cookies at us.

One thing I've been thinking about... The hacker tried to make it impossible to fix the forum by deleting 5hfifty's account, not realizing that likeafox was an admin as well. Supposing he had realized that likeafox was also an admin... would be have been completely screwed?

[Softpaw]

Not necessarily. If someone had direct access to the database server, the database could be manually edited to make someone an admin. I've had to do this to fix hacks to forums hosted on my server, as well as changing passwords this way and other things.
