as by now you can see they got my account again and are changing passwords via admin account to gain initial access they have your info already and have just chosen not to exploit it yet...

As to the rest I feel you I miss the discussions before it all became trolls and attention whores back when when the majority of those discussing cared and knew what they were talking about...

Yeah, I knew that'd be the case from the get go. Thanks for confirming it.

Exactly the point, it's become a pointless task trying to discuss the fundamentals, although we're doing a good job at times...

But if you can't get back the board, shut it down ASAP. Cut everything; hard wired from vbulletin. For obvious reasons of confidentially and professionalism.

Props jamacia. At this point, I think they need to think quickly and act on it.

I'm about 100% sure that is not the case as the only admin that could do that is Greg and his account hasn't been logged into since 7 hours ago and your pass was lost about 3 or 4 hours ago at most.

Guess again!

This is true...........AHH has one of the worst security formats than any working hiphop forums out there. Vbullentin is a joke and anbody with the right amount of knowledge can take this shit for a spin. Greg and whomever else better get there shit together or shut this shit down one or the other.

I respect your posts, you made excellent sense as always.

I agree 100% that the site should be shut down ASAP.

Lol ok, cool bro, dont take any offence to my post, more than likely u didnt anyway... u seem to be a mature adult unlike some mods (Fazeem). I know ur barely on here so its understandable for you not have knowledge of the posters you're offering explanations to... but the exchange between u and him was hilarious for the fact that he's actually the culprit, but yeah.. respect.

None taken, but yeah, it's tough with the new I.C. as I used to be of an age where you could keep up with the posters, but now I just come on, do my bit, try to get some good threads out there and then bounce.

Vbulletin ain't even the problem some of the biggest forums out are hosted on vbulletin and they don't get hacked left and right and when they do get hacked, they get the problem fixed immediately. The problem is in the ownership. It doesn't matter the format they will get the same problems.

lol this site got hacked back in the summer and the white boy c0dy that did it, left his email addy for the owners to get in contact with him and he'd tell them how to secure the site. do you think the ahh owners did that?

I posted what those people needed to do to fix their site in Donkey....think they listened? Nah, they deleted the threads made about the problem.

So I find it funny when those you try to help refuses to help themselves and they just fail

Smh...........hell i googled "vbulletin hack" just to see what would come up and its a damn forum on how to hack this fucking site and others. Greg doesnt get money off this forums but the ads is his money maker and until that is fucked with there will not be any major fixes. Most of this shit is a simple fix like you were saying but if duke dont care why should I? So carry on with what ever yall doing or not doing lol its apparent the power that be (who ever that is) dont care.

Whilst that's the case, the I.C. is the reason I even bother coming to allhiphop.com. Without the I.C. a lot of people wouldn't even come; they'd visit the blogs that suit their taste of music more. I'm sure he would understand that as the I.C. got big by all the vets posting constantly to create a community of posters, it's a lot of time invested in the I.C. but it is surprising and a shame if they've had words of warnings and not acted.

lol Greg cares about allhiphop.com, that's the moneymaker for him. community.allhiphop.com isn't. It's pocket change for him. I have no idea about the ads since I use firefox and haven't seen one yet.

Your right allhiphop.com is paying dudes bills....the forums is like annoying money eater that he keeps feeding lol.
firefox FTW!!!

it was more a shame........greg could walk over to bestbuy and holla at geek squad and they could fix his shit but will he? Lol i'll answer that nope the alleged culprits could fix it for him to but will he bend nope? So accounts will get hacked, info stole, exposures and other fuckery and the boss will just cash a check do interviews for MTV smh.

No I haven't been hacked yet but it doesent matter because any thread I might make could be deleted and destroyed.

Therefore the effort that it takes to make a compelling HipHop thread for discussion isn't worth the time.


After careful analyzation and observation I have come to the conclusion that based on the timing and coordination of the attacks on the Reason; certain posters threads were targeted in order to get the desired reaction.

So before I allow other posters to suffer because specific posters see me as the ultimate "troll-bait" on this forum I'd rather just discontinue posting and hope that the vandals will consider my departure as a triumph and possibly allow the forum to return to it's glorious state before it was compromised.


So this is my last post on the Reason but if you know me then you know I'm on FB, Twitter, YouTube, and Soundclick so you can hit me on there, I might return to the Cheap Seats for the next NFL season because we have had IC Fantasy Football leagues for the past 3 years and I gotta vendetta going on.


So yeah hold it down and thanx for putting me up on that Gas Mask by The Left, I'm still bumping that joint.


Peace Family.

You and me both, I'm contemplating doing the same.

Props on being a solid poster and continue enjoying music from the Left's camp. Apollo Brown has been putting out greatness for two-three years now.

Whilst it's a shame to lose you on the board, there's no compelling reason to say for you or anyone else to do otherwise (including the mods).

Peace.

We need a quick turnaround, the I.C. should go away for a while and come back with amped security. Then, and only then, should it be up and running as it is… IMO.

'Cos this will just happen again and again until they come back with it for the 21st Century (or even the 90s).

It's not so black & white chief, the admin is like "god" of the IC, he can see your account info (passwords/username, etc.), your complete post history EVERYTHING u can think of the admin has control over. They can de-mod a mod or make a poster a mod. They have the power to do virtually everything on allhiphop. So it dont even matter, if the admin was hacked then whoever gained control had access to ALL that shit.

When the admin got hacked every major thread in every room was deleted, I dont even think we can get them back chief. You gonna have to make new threads unfortunately.....
