    Recent hackings, who fault is it!?

    Interesting! Which version of the software was Off Topix and EUH's forum using when it was exploited? I'd like to try it out myself. Could it perhaps be a subquery?

    Recent hackings, who fault is it!?

    That's a possible scenario, albeit less likely. I feel like it is also likely that the hacker could have done a simple query like... UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `password` = 'hashed_password' WHERE `username` = 'admin_username' ... to grant access to an admin account.

    Technical Support - phpBB, MyBB, SMF, and more

    Hi everyone, I'm opening this thread as a means for forum admins to ask answers on technical questions they may be stumped on. This can include simple questions like "How do I do x in y?" all the way to analyses of plug in code for potential vulnerabilities. Anyone is allowed to contribute! I...

    What's to laugh at? All I've gotten in this conversation is passive aggressive remarks and he/she harassed another user about something not even relating to the subject. That's trolling! I would rather you left me alone altogether because you're acting like a jerk.

    Recent hackings, who fault is it!?

    As far as MyBB and the likes are concerned, there are ways to prevent a hacker from breaking your software. Thankfully since all our passwords are hashed before being stored in the database, there's a very low chance that anyone's sensitive data was compromised. If your password was very simple...

    Preferably. I'm only 18 so there are a lot of things I would like to be doing with my time. I'm seeking contract work right now. It isn't that I am opposed to full time work, I was just tired of being drained from being in that office all day. Plus I kept getting sick there and my boss is not...

    I'll leave it alone with the rest of your argument because I feel like I'm conversing with an angry child. I wasn't the one who made the comment about Canada but if you continue to post off topic trolls I will report you.

    I'm starting to stress out about money again. I keep kicking myself for leaving my last job, which had a nice salary, but I was having so much trouble taking care of myself... so I feel trapped. Part of me wishes I have kept my job and the other is happy that I'm able to relax and live on my own...

    Recreational cannabis

    I don't think you grasp the concept that I'm trying to convey to you. I have smoked plenty as well! Whether or not we have the same "pot experience" is debatable. I am able to take a dab of 87% THC hash oil and sit down at the computer and write code for hours. I understand very well that I am...

    Governor to pardon own son's drug conviction

    I am all for the son being pardoned because I don't feel like anyone should be imprisoned for such a non-issue as just possessing marijuana. However, I am not too sure about this Jackson character... I think that pardoning someone who could potentially hurt children is a completely different...

    So what makes your experience more qualifiable than mine or someone else's? I linked to the studies in a former post, here is the link again: http://norml.org/library/item/marijuana-and-driving-a-review-of-the-scientific-evidence I am not saying that there is no effect. And like I said in my...

    Recreational cannabis

    I don't think you understand how marijuana actually affects people. When has anyone died because of marijuana? Also, THC has been strictly controlled for very sick people for a long time under the name Marinol. CBD is also being researched and allowed in some states for the treatment of things...

    Apple Boss: I'm Gay And I Want To Inspire People

    He was actually making a greater statement to the LGBT community, and I'm sure he gave it some considerable thought. A man with such a high status as Tim Cook would not be one to hastily decide to make a grand appeal about something without a motive especially pertaining to this topic. Let's...

    Are you trolling? If marijuana were to be legalized it would be removed from the black market. Ergo, the huge industry that is currently being largely controlled by cartels and criminal organizations will be regulated, and those criminals will have less power. The money generated from the sale...

    Hacked + Software Upgrade

    I see now, I kind of thought that's what you were getting at. You're right too, especially amongst the PHP community. PHP is a forgiving language so it's prime for novice web developers to dive in and start producing. This sadly means that a lot of code contributed to software like MyBB is prone...

    ‘Drunk girl in public’

    That's what I presumed but wanted to make sure. I wasn't able to place the sentiment of the post. I don't know if I necessarily agree, but then again, I haven't tried to have sex while I'm very drunk. It takes a good bit for me to get drunk and I don't consume alcohol very often. So in my...

    Hacked + Software Upgrade

    If you guys would like an analysis done of the plugins you use, I can search through the code and look for any vulnerabilities. I'd be more than willing to collaborate to help find and patch what could have caused the hack. I'm not sure I follow, care to elaborate?

    First allow me to point back to a quote from the Huffington Post article: I will not deny outright that there are no long term effects linked to marijuana use. However I think that research would be more easily conducted if it were free to access. This gives researchers more candidates to...
