Wow thats sad. You need to be extremely careful on who you pick for admins that have access to that sorta stuff. Wait for an admin to reply to your post.

[crystal786]

PLEASE HELP! There must be a way for an administrator of forumotion to restore it?????

[KiiD CuDii]

take him off the Admin's group/Rank
and contact an Admin

[crystal786]

I deleted him. Do you think I will be able to get those members back?

[ce-hub]

i would like to help if you only trust me

[crystal786]

i would like to help if you only trust me

I trust you 100% please help me!

[KiiD CuDii]

I deleted him. Do you think I will be able to get those members back?

i dont think so.probably if you restore it.

[ce-hub]

ok, anyway even the forum restored the deleted users cannot. its just all you have to do is invite them again.

@ crystal ill join ur forum now

i forgot your on maintenance i cant register on this moment

[crystal786]

Im just gonna delete my forum. The person I made admin said he is gonna hack into my computer.

[ce-hub]

no dont be so...
its just an attempt... hey please tell us the IP of that user and hes email

[CANADIEN]

...she deleted him, ce-hub.

[ce-hub]

...she deleted him, ce-hub.

yah but still he has left some post, his IP can still be viewed i think?

~anyway his a serious treat to every forum, he might as well do that on other, revealing his IP will be able to note everyone that he is not to trust with... and so as we ce-hub will warn him i just cant let someone like him do such kind

calm down crystal.Im already on ur forum.did he dealete me?Cause i could help aswell.

[VNinjaV]

I am really sorry to hear about that, personally I would never have another Administrator on my forums, even it it got really big, just lots of moderators. Sorry I can't help but I think you need to PM an Admin of this forum and explain your problem!

[zinex]

dont delete anything hun. Go to http://forumotion.com/en/utils

enter the original address to your site and the password you used when you first made your forum. Restore it and remove him from admin. It will be just fine. If you have forgotton your log in details contact an admin.

Edit- Thanks soooooooo much Zinex! You are an angel!

But I still think we need to do something to make sure this user doesnt do this to other forums. The link to his forum is www.millsberry.forumotion.com
He is an professional hacker and I think we need to do something about this.
A special thanks to Ce-hub, Zinex and Mamabear!

[ce-hub]

even a professional hacker also afraid for his pc to be crack i mean let just say, crack hard drives, un able to use IP... and sort of like that, so no worries we try to get you o cover

[crystal786]

Thanks soooooooo much Ce-hub!

[zinex]

you will be fine crystal as long as you make a really secure password and make sure that the email address registered to your forum for you, has a really strong security question too. It is fairly easy to hack say a hotmail account belonging to the admin of a site then send for a password reset email. Make sure all passwords are secure and dont make up anyone you barely know as admin. Put it down to experience

[Antonio1992]

Thank you crystal! I don't know who this guy is but i have banned his email and IP because i had a hacker come on my old forum and post hacking things and it got shut down so..... But i have recovered. You get all your members back?

I did not know that ForuMotion had that feature.

[zinex]

every forum does and should always be your first port of call if anything goes badly wrong with your site

[Nessa]

I'm so sorry to hear of this Crystal, how sad. 30 minutes after you admin'd this person too? Gesh you really have to so careful who you let inside your admin panel next time sweety, really. Zinex is right, if you restore it it should be fine again, but ban this jamie guy straight away( but don't delete that account afterwards, or it undoes the ban ). I hope you get everything back to normal again soon Good Luck Crystal.

[Antonio1992]

You can also ban his username

[Saurus]

You can also ban his username

Which will accomplish absolutely nothing, because he could just use a different username. He needs to be IP banned.

Best advice is to never, EVER give anyone you don't know personally Admin status. Even then it can be risky if for some reason you have a disagreement. Also - you have no assurance that this other person will be as careful with their passwords and such as you are - leaving the forum open to hacking through the co-admins account. DON'T DO IT. That includes other forumotion members who offer help, by the way. How can you trust "100%" someone you don't even know?

Use the tools provided that Zinex mentioned and forget anyone elses help except for a support specialist from Forumotion.
