Forum got hacked
« on: October 01, 2011, 06:35:06 pm »
Well my forum, dominationx.smffy.com got hacked by some [censored] named Jake.
I think he payed someone else to do it because Jake can't do ****. He's a huge poser.
Well he said he injected it. I'm guessing SQL injecting it.
I wish to get my forum restored and something to happen to our little 'friend' Jake.

Please refrain from the language you used.

What exactly makes you think it was hacked? Also, unless he had some good reason to do so, logic would say that he didn't pay anyone to hack it. A lot of the times, people will threaten you by saying they're going to do something or they already did something, when they really didn't. To restore your forum, you'll need to pay $2.95. However, we cannot really take action against a person in a situation like this, especially without solid proof that he did what he did.

/facepalm.
I didn't say it was a threat. I said he did it.
If you go to my forum you'll have all the proof you need.

Regardless, the fact of the matter is that we likely will not take action against this person. It seems as if he was mad at you or something - otherwise he wouldn't have posted what he posted.

Also, he didn't SQL inject you - he just somehow got access to an admin account. The likely cause was that one of the forum's admins could have had a weak password.

Fine. What do I do to get my forums back?
And are you sure he didn't SQL inject? Or are you just running on probablys?
I'm going to beleive you because he's a huge poser and I don't think can do anything.
And I think he got the other owners password because yes, it was a very simple password.

There's your answer. ;)



To restore your forum, you'll need to pay a fee of $2.95. Also, I'm about 99% sure that he didn't SQL inject you. ;) It's possible that he's smarter than you think though.

Wait, who is Jamie?  :confused:

Also, I've told you two times already, and this is the last time I'll say it - you can restore your forum by paying a fee of $2.95

Sorry for the attitude but you aren't answering my questions very well..

Wow, calm down. I am not doing anything to be spoken to like that. The reason you're not getting answers you want to hear is because you kept saying "How do I restore my forum", which to me, seems like you didn't see what I said about having to pay $2.95.
