Got hacked by a troll yesterday. Evidently they placed a code in their posts that caused all the other posts in the thread to disappear. Even the quotes, delete, edit, and ip buttons in the thread were gone. Anyone see this before? And what is it?

I deleted the threads and the user because i was afraid of the corruption spreading. Question, if it happens again and i direct an Admin or SuperMod to the thread. Would you be able to find out what was going on?

That is very weird. Youll probably need more help though, have you searched or the code? have you tried backing it up to a earlier stage?

Please keep posts separated by every 24 hours

No on the code. I was hoping someone here saw it before and could tell me more about it. I think i could have fixed it without deleting the threads by starting another thread and moving all the hackers posts to there and out of the effected threads.

Just freaked me out and did not want it to possibly spread.
