Create A Forum - Support Forums

If you have good security, there wouldn't be any "hackers"....?

And really, hackers don't exist on these forums. Only people that you've made admin can takeover the forum.

That's why on MY forums, I am the only administrator. I don't add others for that specific reason.

But if you do add other administrators it is important that you are very careful. Or create a special administrator group to take away some of their permissions that could ultimately land you without a forum.

Also, isn't this the same thing here: http://support.createaforum.com/guides-and-tutorials/%28tips%29-safeguarding-your-forum/

Just to clear things up to people about what a hacker is-

In common usage, a hacker is a person who breaks into computers and computer networks, either for profit or motivated by the challenge.

(Wikipedia).

If you have a poorly selected password, or a good one that a person knows and then uses to gain access to your account, it is not hacking.

The same goes for if a member is given any access over what regular members have, and they make unwanted changes to your site.

Hacking would be if someone went through the network, or sought out and decisively exploited a bug in order to harm these forums.

The site you are referring to was NOT hosted by CAF or SMF for Free.

As stated above, our servers are secure. They were hosting their SMF forum on their own from a different webhost, and therefore the post above has no effect on our security credibility.
