Dishonest People
 
I posted a username and password on this site for people to help me with my enquiry on a LIVE BOARD.

Someone (who can't seem to control their fingers) started banning and deleting users, and deleting threads.

This is classed as messing around with things that are not theirs and I will take further action against that person.


The IP has been logged as *** IP Removed *** and will be reported to their ISP.

Host Name: *** IP Removed ***

This information has been recorded, and if this post gets removed from this site, then I will report to VBulletin.com as this site is supposed to be for HELP not to have things DELETED.

I urge the moderation team to take this seriously!!

Uhm, I'm sorry, but what does this have to do with vBulletin? It doesn't.

You posted the username and password here, publically??? That's just poor judgement on your part.

Good luck with that...

Hex_legend 08-05-2007 07:54 PM

Yes I am posting it publically cus if they have the bad manners to mess around with MY SITE then its only fair that I make whoever it is public.

If you left your credit card details on the forum, would you expect someone to let you know without using a penny?

You should have at least restricted access to the account, heck you shouldn't have posted it here sending it by private message would have been more appropriate.

It could have been just some random visitor how may not even had an account here, I guess at least now you know to safeguard all you details. Never post a password no matter how insignificant it may seem, the Internet isn't the best of places to give out details.

da420 08-05-2007 08:02 PM

No, what I meant was - Did you post your username and password for your site here, publically?

Hex_legend 08-05-2007 08:05 PM

@ Opserty

I realise this, but it was as a general post for someone to help me with my UserCP request. I didn't PM it because I had no one to PM it to, as it was a general request to everyone to have a look, not to mess around with my forum.

Yes I understand that it may have been a random visitor, but at least this way, they will know that I am on to them and have started an IP log on their PC.

I thought this site was decent enough for people to help you, not to start messing up other people's sites.

Other than that, can anyone help me with my username request located https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=154312

@da420

I posted a "Test" username and password in the programming section under UserCP

These details are now invalid as I have blocked access to that account.

Alright, keep in mind that's a bad idea. Generally, yes, most people here are very helpful and would never do something like that. But, I would highly recommend to never post your username and password publically, especially considering this is a public site that anyone can access with or without registering.

Your situation is unfortunate, But... At least you learned something, right?

Hex_legend 08-05-2007 08:13 PM

Yeah.

The point I am trying to get across is that I am looking for someone to help me but as it was a general request to all coders, I wanted them to take a look at what I wanted done before they messaged me saying whether they could do it.

Still urgently need help if someone wants to play around a bit.

I would highly suggest also that you do not post passwords and usernames in an open forum. You may end up in a worse situation than losing threads and users.
