BHW legions

[cashcorp]

We need to do SOMETHING about the security of this forum.
I have no power personally, as its all up to dave in the end. But here are the options as I see them...

1:Switch to SMF (simple machine forums) if you used these, you know how easy security upgrades and patches are. But this also means are database will be fucked, and wed lose all the awesome content already posted here. An option in that respect, is to save this forum as an archive, with a link available for the first year or so after the patch until we have enough new content to make up for this. We could disable posting, and new registrations to ensure all users use the new forum. (clearly wed having the homepage URL pointing to the new forum)

2:Make BHW invite only, and use the homepage url as a landing page. With a classified URL to point to the actual forum, and only viewable by users who are logged in.

3:We go to Quebec and break the guy who defaced our sites legs. It doesnt solve the problem, but it would make us all feel better!

So do your part guys, demand some change. I for one dont intend to let what is THE best marketing forum out there bendover and let some pimply ass script kiddie call the shots. Dave picks the staff, including security. If this little dickwad wanted to do security he should have asked dave. Not deface what is in essence HIS legal property. And in practice, the tears, laughs, and triumphs of each and every one of us.

Also, I think im breaking some rules by kind of outing Dave here. But I dont care, if this forum goes to the dogs Ill be gone anyways. And seeing as those are the only two options available, Im certainly going to speak up.

So if your sick of getting hacked every other week, vote. Say something. Im depending on you guys here, Members,Mods,Admins, and Dave to.


UPDATE-(glad its within the 15minute edit time limit to!)
we CAN transfer the database to SMF. Meaning we would still have our postcounts, and all the posts/topics on the forum would be safe in there new home.

Thanks to oldenstylehats(his IRC name, idk his forum handle) for digging this up!

I thought vBulletin would be more secure than SMF, being paid software??

 

[bizkiller]

invite only

fuck,

cuz of this shit,

i lost 2 days worth of threads.

 

[bizkiller]

wait wait,

but i think option 3 would be the far best method.

 

[cashcorp]

Vbulletin is one of the most unsecure pieces of software out there. Just like Windows. The pricetag doesnt mean shit, it just means its the most popular. Hence they can charge the most.

I reported these Thel3vel*net retards to Rackvibe........not sure if the whole server was not hacked as well.......

These losers thought we would be "pre-sold" on the idea that we should join their idiotic forum after being hijacked to their main forum page!!!

Now, according to whois, these jerk-offs have nameservers and these nameservers led me to rackvibe, thus.......to their IP location. Not too bright......

Anyway, I agree that it is most irritating and "shotgun to the face therapy" seems appropriate for these dudes who have their little exams to be worried about......if you read the first page of forum.

There is a NASTY little script that will continually loop their domain over and over..........I can dig it up........it was written on sindyke*8 (I know it is not spelled correctly)

Someone there got tired of the hacking and wrote that NASTY little gem.......

Quid Pro Quo I say...........

I will do my best to dig up that script and if the mods want it, then I will give it to them........

"Ohhhh, look everyone. We have a '3' in our name instead of an 'e'. Get it? A '3' instead of an 'e'? That makes us cool, right? Anybody wanna' listen to some WHAM records?"

Asshole. I was going through withdrawal all day. lol

 

[cashcorp]

Same.
I realized I keep alot of data stored in my Pm archives here to. I wound up not having a couple of urls today!

Defend thy honour, oh lady ..blackhatworld?

 

[Keedev]

I thought forum hacking was done to competitive hack-to-hack sites.. Why mess with a marketing one? I guess there are 2 black hat niches..


Anyways I was reading @ wickedfire about the person who did it working with the admin to get BHW access back.. Then again, it's still bitchmaid.. Guess there really isn't much to do when you a hacker besides forums/site, myspace, and other random shit..

Whoever they are needs to get a life and get laid already.

I second that.

I third it.
But by laid, I mean assraped by my gay friend "Twinky"

(6'4 at LEAST 300 pounds, african american.)

 

[PitBoss]

Personally, I'd like to start with number 3.

If the powers that be can move to SMF or any other more secure forum soft, then that would be my next choice. Going to invite only is not a bad idea either. It should be easy (relatively speaking) to implement both options.

Basically, as you say cash, whatever it takes to secure the fort.

niche1, Quid Pro Quo indeed! I say fire when ready, but it's not my call.

EDIT: havok, cheers for the number. I've got some several hundred friends at another forum from all over the world that I can drop that number off with and have 'em all call the jackass collect.

I've been into hacking a couple years ago, then I discovered black hat marketing, and figure out that marketing was way more usefull and effective to make money, and was as well less likely to get you in trouble some day. Though some hacking knowledge are sometimes usefull in many area.

But unfortunately, people are dumb, that's human nature. (Now Darwin's rollin over in his coffin). We can't educate them and get them to understand they could use their knowledge to do something else than useless or criminal things.

Breaking legs won't get them a brain, though I like this idea

So the best solution is probably getting a more secure forum, and eventually going to inbite only, that will avoid dumb guys registering and asking for magic formulas and being frustrated when we tell them why won't get them some magic button to press to make tons of cash, thus making them hate us.

Just my two cents
