Backed into a corner, I will kick your fucking head off

So, three days on, and no solution but to move the What’s On Xiamen account to a new server. If that’s going to take another day at least, because their service has been slow lately.

I’m not going to bother finding a new host, for various reasons.

I sure as hell am not going to move the domain to this account.

What all this means is I’ve not been able to do anything else this past three days. Wait for tech support. Attempt to delete things that might close the door. Come back a few hours / minutes later after having a meal / coffee break only to find it’s been hacked again. Contact tech support again. Get told once again it’s not them, it’s me, and when I ask them to explain in more depth exactly which files are insecure since they claim my files are insecure, all I get is ‘We are looking into your issue, please wait’ and I wait for eight hours and still they’re not done looking.

I’m a touch frustrated. In my desperate search for relief, I re-designed the site. If you check it out within the next five minutes before it gets hacked again, you can see it.

What a bunch of morons. Is there any way you can escalate your issue from the code monkies to someone that understands how the interweb thing works?

What forum software (version, etc etc) were you using?

Terry, I did, and finally, I got an answer. That was better. Not definitive, but better (i.e. indicated that certain aspects of certain scripts could be hacked into, and actually gave options as to what I could do next).

R. It was TinyBB, v 0.2. The account has now been wiped, and I’m slowly uploading again.
