Lol SGT.Joker.. I agree. Seriously, why do these people waste their lives causing grief over the internet? I wonder if the person or persons that did it ever had/have a grudge against PR, or if these people think of it as some sort of entertainment. I swear all of this gives me the image of some no life scumbag, living in his mother's basement, with not a single friend to talk to.

U have to differentiate between white hats and black hats:
If a white hat wouldve hacked the forum(if he would ever bother hacking a forum), he mightve created a thread with the admins account, telling what the security issue is.

The problem just is, that theres way more black hats/script kiddies out there, than "real" hackers. The Hackers Manifesto is a very interesting read actually:http://www.phrack.org/archives/7/P07-03

My favourite part:
We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek
after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin color,
without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals.
You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us
and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.

Your sort of attitude IMHO just lets them get away with it leaving them to think they are free to do it again with no comeback.
Er...no. They want us to get all dramatic so they can come and do it again.

I say meh to them.

you shouldnt call them hackers, they are just lame script kiddy's using a exploit in the forum software.
