Another Hacker Warning

Well... it was nice of the guy to post it to let people know anyways.

And as for "needing to be hacked"... come on Maddog... You can't really think that. It's not so much about the forum owner/admin as all the members who get their passwords stolen.

Imagine you sign up at some site, the site gets hacked, and you lose control of other logins and email accounts... Not a nice picture, but pretty realistic.

Most people only use a few weak passwords for everything.

I hacked some site a while ago - by accident of course - and man... talk about brutal passwords, as in easily bruted  - 1234, love, same as login... Just curiosity really. But I could have done a LOT of damage because I got a LOT of information from it... Thankfully I'm a nice guy  

I get the point - some people need to stick their hand in the fire to find out it burns.

Unfortunately some of those people are holding other people's hands at the same time.

You guys are still not getting my point.

The point is, if someone cant take 2 seconds to read a readme file (must always read the readme files!) and they get hacked because they cant follow directions, they needed to be hacked to learn a lesson that readme files are there for a reason and should be read for a reason.

Bruce didn't spend hours (maybe even days) creating documentation just to hear people say they where hacked and they didn't read the instructions!
