yep..i did.
he makes a couple of contradicting statements.
he says MODS are reading them too, everyone knows MODS cant access the admin panel.
** more importantly..i wanna know who these feds are he`s talking about about. lol.
anyway..here`s my reply to this:
-------------------------------------
i can say we do have the "log in as user" plug in. i only use it if and when a member tells me they are having problems logging into their account or that the board is kicking them back to the log in screen, and i get permission from them to log into their account and see if it kicks me off or not. if it doesn`t, i know it`s their browser or their cache.
i have had to use it 2 times in a year and a half.
if i was gonna read pm`s, it would NOT be thru this plug in, it would be thru the real, actual "read pm`s" plug in that V-BULLETIN has, THAT WE DO NOT HAVE OR USE.
this board was NOT hacked, it was a member of the community that knew my password,and i know who it was.
Well no need to let anyone know yet lets just leave it alone and I'm sure it will be handled
Guys how can this guy just see inside every ones board like this? How does he have this power? can he just see in side every VB board? I do not like this at all. thats some scary shit!!
no...what happened was...someone i know, knew my password and used it to access my board and another board i was admin at. and then took screen shots there.Quote:

D-red you at one time owned both, could this be an iside job? Has somebody had access to both forum's admin areas?
Guess we are all here at once....... ok that explains it.
OK, it must be the guy I am thinking of them.

You can give a moderator any admin permissions you like without giving them full access to the admin panel. You can pick and choose one by one what they can see and use. They should never have access to the board functions like they do in those pictures. Thats your investment and there is no need for anybody to be messing with it. Let me know if you want me to send you details of how to do it.....
true mugs. and good post.Quote:

Well I know this much for mutha fuckin sure... If there was an Admin or board owner looking at MY FUCKIN PM's... I would damn sure hope it was D-RED... and not some of the fuckin douche bag lames on other boards that let scammers and rats thrive on their boards. Having said that I will say this over and over again. If you type ANYHING AT ALL ON THE INTERNET, the federal government can read it if they choose to read it. I would bet good money they are the ones behind almost ALL so called secure email hosting sites. Why not? Its a perfect set up... pssst hey, come over here we got this encryption see, its unbeatable, totally secure, the server is on Mars, non extradition blah blah blah...
i'm not a fan of Asshole Roberts by far but sometimes i do wonder if certain people can access pm's at any given moment.any admin can tell the users ip addy right? so what would stop someone posing as an admin from hacking into a members account to veiw their info?
if ordinary computer geeks can hack into government offices,start viruses around the globe then what would make someone think that it's impossible to get a hold of certain info at will? i mean these boards aren't put together by the C.I.A. or F.B.I.
if LE wants in don't doubt for a second they'll get what they're looking for.anyone notice the number of busts or the number of solid sources just suddenly leaving boards cause they sense something's up?i was involved in LE many years ago and even tho i realize things have changed since i was in they've also changed for the worse on our part.how do you think they catch these on-line child porn weirdos?they pose as one,hack into accounts and bust them.maybe i'm paranoid but when my gut tells me something's amiss i'm usually right or damn near close.call me crazy,nuts,whatever.i don't care.too much shit's been goin on lately and instead of making one huge ORD bust they've just been chipping away at certain people,taking them off the count till they give up the next guy and so on and so on...
I figure anything I press submit or send online may be viewable at some point in time by others, no such thing as security online.
