So... I'm quite a well known "hacker"/"hacktivist" - don't like any of those words tbh..

- And I am known as the king of ddos, do a little research and you'll see why ;)
For those of you that don't know DDoS is when you send multiple "packets" to a website, every time you open a website it sends packets to receive information, I use a "shell booter" which is when you take servers (more powerful then your average PC as they are hooked up to a WAY faster internet connection and can have a lot stronger processors). Currently I have 670 shells online, this would mean i have control off 670 servers across the world = BEAST. I started off by noticing that the adins don't update the forums software (XenForo) as frequently they should. I then found a vulnerability in the current update of the software on a underground hacking forums i use. I then went on to find that they use a dedicated server with no patched protection IP.
This means that Skial is up for attack from pretty much anyone with the knowledge to do these things (aka me a 15 year old kid from England).
This could mean, if you've been PM'ing people emails, personal details etc that the hackers could get there grubby doritos covered hands on them.
I suggest, either setting up the software to automatically update, adding CloudFlare (free ddos protection) and pen-testing the site (this means to try and hack it with a nice guy who doesn't want to harm the community)
Thanks,
Charrie
