This has plagued me for a while now, so thoght i'd post it. Last year around this time, my account was hacked at few places, it really tore alot of relationships with online friends! So i switched to I.F instead, and i found out that i was my ex-friend Tarvis >_<. So has this happened to you guys?

I.F?
Well, in the past, I've had a lot of trouble with a couple of people I know just trying to mess up my old forums and stuff, but they said they were only "messing around". To be honest, it's a bloody pain when people mess up the hard work you've put into something. Doesn't happen now though, stopped talking to them really.

I've been lucky enough to never have been hacked into. I heard all about so many forums being hacked into and had their hard work completely lost... but yeah I've been lucky.. that hasn't happened. and I hope it never does.
I think hacking is just simply pathetic.

One of my best friends, Ramirez from The Outcasts Guild, had his first forum deleted without warning one day by PB and they said that something on there violated their ToS. We reckon that someone hacked into his account and did something but obviously we have no proof. There is this one guy he used to know who messed about with his old forum and my old forum for a bit. We had a few problems but eventually we got rid of one guy and the other turned out to be harmless. My forum was hacked into once and screwed up slightly but fortunately I had two staff members online at the same time and they were able to sort it out for me.
Nothing major has happened to me and I'm not exactly the sort of person who'd try and make a massive fuss out of it anyway.
And what's I.F.?

I've never been hacked. No one I know has had reason to... but luckily enough, I've never had someone on the internet do it just because they could. =/
I have to agree... I think hacking isn't cool, except when you might have to do it to acess something on your own compy, because it was messed with by someone, or just out of accident. Doing it to other people is just stupid though. *Sigh*

Well that's good fortune . Yeah i think one of my accounts was hacked at a place called Outcasts Guild on my P.C too! My friend Travis, well yeah i went out to just get my football from the street,( it rolle donto the street and i have a good view of things from the study) Travis, quickly got onto the P.C and yeah did things, i can't remember though, but we have the same I.P! Also at a place called Exhilliratoin Studios, he did the same thing to me there. Yeah i really hate hackers, the most recent attempt to attack my P.C was from Russia! A guy near Moscow............... I.F I = Invisionf F = Free It's a forum hosting service.

You were on ToG? And your account was hacked there?! Crikey. Having the same IP is a pain too. I seem to have the same as everyone close to where I live too if they're on NTL. It is a major pain in the ass.

Yeah, it's soooo annoying especially when you have no clue that's it actually happened. Yeah alot of people in my new area having IP's close to mine, and one or two exactly like mine. Also the biggest hack i've had was when someone, broke into my board, and deleted the whole forum! The stats were 287 Members and 20,424 Posts! >_< it wasn't Travis this time though. It was someone at a resource forum!

Woah, you seem to have a lot of bad stuff that's happened to you! It's flippin' mad. I can't see what people think deleting a forum or hacking an account will accomplish though, other than just annoy and upset people.

Yeah i don't know why though? Maybe because bright newbs, like destroying forums/sites. But they always seems to get my password, i've recently used a pass gen, so i hope they'll keep them out .

Man, Well that sucks, Sorry to hear, but i also have been lucky enough not to have been hacked. I don't see the point in hacking, Unless, say its on a game, And you get them MAJOR noobs that think they can hack.. That pisses me off, so, thats the only thing i think you can hack on, Also if its a life threatening thing, Like to hack into some world organization to stop, carrot eating crabs ^-^.
But back on a serious note, i think its pathetic, Plus these people that say they can hack, UM knows who I'm on about, when thy use other peoples software, or they get people to create a program for them.

You seem to be going on about animals a lot now, randomly. Oh yes, I know who you mean. "Hackers" that download programs or get others to make them for them aren't really hackers at all. And I just remembered another thing that annoys me. When people find out a password to something and they log on and mess everything up and say it's hacking. Hell, it's not. It's bloody cracking, which requires no skill at all and is still just as pathetic.
