Fucking hell, how many times do I have to tell you?

The forums weren't hacked. Nothing illegal happened. It was one of the people you made admins.

But we weren't talking about the hacked forum. We are talking about Flamekebab's nose bleed. :)

Still, they were trusted with a job, and doing this is against the law, same way as wrecking your office which you don't own at work is against the law.

No. Occasionally if I haven't slept enough, I wake up, not feeling any pain, just feeling the inside of my nose is wet with a bit of blood and if I don't get some tissue soon, it'll get a lot worse.

It doesn't happen regularly.

Still, you have no choice but to reinstall your forum and only apply trustworthy moderators/administrators.

It's high blood pressure, your nose blood capilaries are overcharged with blood.

Sorry beno but your wrong, if you gave them the power to do this then they are perfectly within the law to do that =/

Happens when people give right of attorney power to people in the big wide world outside the internet. If you give them the power to do it then they are within the law to do so

*example*
If your head of a company and you give your board of directors power to vote you out of the company then they are within the law to kick you out of the company and change the locks your office... poor example but tis true im afraid.
Sorry beno

It's still illegal, despite me giving systemwide access it is abuse of authority, and ruining work.

Just because it is illegal doesn't mean people care.
Why should they?
They're unlikely to be caught and the punishment won't be severe.

Basically - "What are you going to do?"

Look. Isn't it just simple to get a new forum instead of arguing about the old one?

isn't it simple enough for the person who did this to give me the password because they came from this forum, I know it, I've explained this before.
