Saw this while scanning the IPB forums. What up with that? Why would anyone want to lie about a security hole to move to phpBB/IPB from vB? That is beyond me...

Ugh, he can't even back up his own arguments.

100 users move to other forum software? Pulled out of his butt

Security hole? It was not proven, and someone probably guessed his password. Try google brute force, haha Pulled out of his butt

Jelsoft trying to cover it up? Uhm, from what I read from that thread - they tried to get Max to share log file entries, etc, but he did not provide them, or could proof where or how or whatever - he probably used a proxy and faked it :> Pulled out of his butt.

Now that there is so much space :)

We take security issues very seriously. If he would cooperate then we could gladly take closer look at this.

Ah, just as I thought :cool:

Funny how IPB delete threads about serious vB discussions but keep the ones that discuss security holes...

Has it ever occured to this moron that someone probably compromised the server to make themselves an admin and then delete themselves afterwards?

I don't see any further reason to keep this open.
