    Vbulletin is very unfriendly to use.

    "box is misaligned" pray tell what magic knobs I have to twist to make it right?

    Vbulletin is hundreds of fields of shit like this:

    Id be interested in being a mod. If you need someone with unix and server experience let me know I am always available.

    I've been active on the site since 2007 - I'd like to volunteer for moderator if I could.

    Good luck with recovering, everyone. Were you able to deduce if any sensitive information (PMs, etc...) was accessed, ASSEMbler?

    And yeah, vB's style system is a bitch, I still have nightmares from it in my days...

    I guess it would be safe to assume regular users should change their passwords as well? Hope you get well soon. That comes first. It is just a website after all. A damn good one but still.

    Password changed.

    I try to keep spammers away as much as i can but wasn't online when this happened. Glad LeGIt was online and did what he could to stop it.

    If it's a vb issue, i guess we need some help with that. You must take care of you health and not have to worry with stuff like this.

    Your right. I guess that makes a bit more sence. Still, what good did the person who used this exploit get? I assume the R4 company was spamming adds, but this low-life just deleted information gathered over a week as a collective community. Why do people do things like this?

    I'd volunteer for a mod as I have the time and know the site inside and out but I'm a newer member so...

    I'd volunteer as a mod but I don't remotely deserve it and I'm probably the least knowledgable person on this site

    Kev saves the day! Thanks for fixing this as soons as you could man! I'll change my password even though I'm only XBOX moderator :p
    Even though personally I'd like to see Druid or Bad become global moderator, I also raise my hand as well.

    Oh I love this community! Everyone putting their hands up.
    Those who do moderate I don't know how you find the time away from real life.
    Kudos to all of you! :loyal:

    not sure where you're getting this actually, the whole left block has been perfectly aligned for me always, and still is. maybe stop browsing with IE :p
    granted i'd love for the posts to not take 2 screen heights worth screenspace per post but it's not like i'll die to that :p

    i've always been a fan of minimalism myself, and my own forum represents that pretty good too (click for pic)

    just like to say i am fine with the alignments as is. I don't mind the bigger pictures at all.


    /my 2cents.


    Also: To those whom are upset about having to change password.


    1.) use a password manager, problem solve.
    2.) use a PWM to generate random password, then write down all your passwords for websites in a notebook.
