Taking Down the Old Forum

[Wes]

You've probably seen that a ton of sites are being hacked because they're using old of date versions of vBulletin. The previous incarnation of this forum, which is over at newayenee.org, is running a very out-of-date copy of vbulletin and is at risk. In the interest of protecting users' personal information and passwords, I think we should get rid of that forum soon before it gets pwned. I have admin rights there but not server access. So I'm thinking about what would be the best way to do this.

There are, as far as I know, only two people with server access on that site. If my information is out of date, then there's only one. And you can guess how frequently they get on...

For now, it may simply be best to just keep it as secure as we can until that particular individual gets back on.

Well, one thing I thought of doing would be to clear out all the users so that if the site was compromised, there'd be no user data to steal.

Well if I am correct the only people with the power of the server are DSX, and maybe SJ. Other than those two Ceros might . I know that was always a bit higher than my pay grade, and I am pretty Sure Madi doesn't have that level of access.
