Last I checked, '2' in place of 'to' is not proper spelling. Don't mind me if I'm wrong, I'm from the U.S.
I emailed Ben and got him to back up the boards and change his password, but it didnt sound like he had updated anything yet. So really, Im not sure what that was.
Could it have been the person trying to hack the site a while ago with the DevCast Forum? Maybe they tried to update it. Strange but a possibility.
I wonder if there is a way to log the IP address and information about a user or computer that changes the board scripts. What language do the boards use for programming? If it has similarities to BASIC, Linux, and/or C (+/++) then I may have enough resources and experiance available to make the file myself. It could be a self executing file that monitors the boards every 5 seconds or something (just so that your ISP doesnt lock you out for sending a barrage of requests).
Or, now that I think about it. Any time the basic stuff (like the script files and such) is altered, a program takes a ``snapshot`` of every user, computer, and such connected to the forums at that time. Giving id information so that you can later do a more extensive search trough whois. Or something. Sounds like fun.
When in Japan with access to just about every system ever made and those that have yet to see international soil, gather your forces, and make the cool ones your own.
Well Ben just emailed me and wants help setting everything up without killing everything...
Gannon... Can you help 'em... Im tired right now and would probably lead him to delete the board or something bad like that... (remember to use the charter email adress...)
