  1. TID wasnt hacked, someone got into a mods account by cracking the password to their email account and sent a request to reset the password from TID. We were very lucky that Mugzy backs up that place constantly.

     

    Thats correct TID was not hacked however Demigod's email password was and the user then came to TID and tried to login to demi's account. Upon failing login he hit "lost password" and it emailed it right to the email account he had comprimised. He then logged into Demigod's account and used his permissions to delete posts. The forum is backed up daily and was restored thereafter. Going forward we are working on system that the mods will need two different passwords to delete posts.

  2. osris works for ergo right? or he's sponsored by them if I remember correctly. all the positive reviews seem to come from ergopharm. thx for the input mugzy.

     

    No osiris doesnt work for ergo but he does like thier products. He's the guy if you want to know about folli myo. I'll ask him to make a post, he had a log on TID for a while too.

  3. The question is why did a couple of weeks ago Tm told the admins he wasnt busted? trying to get more people in trouble?

     

    Thats another thread. Clearly the information being spread was bogus and somebody should own up to it. The title of the thread is Jaydog25 Busted" Its enough of a pain in the ass keeping up with all of the information coming in on these forums, we don't need people starting false rumors without backup to prove it. So I say ..... own it or prove it.

  4. Mugzy I've been looking for confirmation since TM's disappearance. I've yet to find anything.

     

    Its possible TM got busted I dont know I just want to point out somebody is passing incorrect information. In my opinion the source of this information read a post to fast and jumped the gun screaming bust, some people live to spread drama. I havent read anywhere jaydog was busted. Im pretty sure I know who started this rumor....... now I just want to know his source of information.

  5. Actually I had heard Jaudog25 had gotten a visit from the feds however he had nothing on him and infact was not busted. Where did He get the information he was busted and can he confirm this? Also I think I know the other board he's talking about and it doesnt say anything about jaydog being busted.

  6. Thanks Again Mugzy...PH

     

    No problem PH.... its funny watching these guys respond to a spam post with a wise remark and then ban the poster for spam. All of the spam posts are done by a bot (peice of software) and they are not actual people. They are only wanting to make one post to set a backlink to there site or viagara or some garbage and the bot will not post again.

     

    Another way to stop the bots is to setup that when a person registers they have to fill in a captcha or a series of letters and numbers, the bots cannot do this as they cannot read so they can never confirm the email for registration.

  7. Its something we've been trying to implement, new version of Vbulletin has anti-spam guards

    However were still looking for a more reliable (and cheaper) TECH to work on this.

     

    Its less than a 5 minute job to install the plugin. Here is the link for your version of vbulletin and guess what....its free. - http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=176481&highlight=spam

     

    Also if your looking to update vbulletin the software is about $200 however I can send you a copy that I have nulled free if you like.... last offer.

  8. Guys I have said it several times. There is a plugin called "stopforumspam" that you can add to this forum and it will filter the spammers for you. The plugin will compare IP addresses to a list of known spammers and block the spammer if there name is on the list. I run it on my 6 forums and I have to delete a spammer about every 6 months. Let me know if you have an issue and I would be happy to install it for you. Heres the link - http://www.stopforumspam.com
