"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Were any messages lost? If all he did was closed the board (which can be reopened), I guess it is not such a big deal.

In my knowledge hacker and cracker is basically the same, but cracker does harmful things while hacker comes and leaves but does not do anything really harmful.

Yes, I noticed the message about protect0rz but VWBB is running again.

Crackerz create keygens. They're kinda half-hacker, half-cracker. They do it because it is illegal and they like to screw over big companies, and believe in freedom of information, but aren't evil enough to go crashing corporate websites.

Hackers hack stuff. They find holes, see what they can do and then (in theory) either report the hole to the sys-admin or take a look around and leave.

Crackers crash stuff. They hack into a computer/site then delete stuff and generally wreak havok.

Depends wether he thought to wipe the admin logs and his user account when he left.

But bear in mind that he'll be getting the IP of everyone who visits the boards from the Who's Online.

I agree with you 100%

If everyone in the world was the same way, there would be so much to gain.

Yeah.. the guy was a really crappy hacker and got to us through a vulnerability in the vBulletin code, which we have now fixed anyway. It was probably just some script kiddie. I was instantly able to go in through the databases and lock him out of our system. Basically he had sniffed one of the admin's passwords, then logged in, closed the boards, and changed the rest of the admins passwords. Should be all fixed now and it won't happen again.

But he needs a VW avatar, just like DaveB has a Volition avatar.
