coz as admin, I dont post. df is my account. admin exists only to change the board. admin is the root account. you dont use admin as an every day account...

and I'm only on now as admin, as i'm banning more users. grrr. I get sick of ppl boming my board for whatever reason (ie: some robot/script is requesting every msg id, or trying to send a msg to all users, etcetcetc...)

php requests.. fun... all the same attacks from several different ip's..

i understand what admin is. i was wondering who it was. also how come it said 9 posts but only showed 3?


it is really a shame on how people try to ruin a board when we arent doing anything to them. we are chatting and helping each other. no one should be screwing up the board or hacking it or whatever. you should only join this board if you are going to talk about any topics that are here. or else, go find another one that you can mess up. that is my opinion.

Because he posted nine times... and 6 of them he deleted.(and it lets him keep his post count.)

So do all boards have a set name admin? or is that just YaBB boards?

Only the original YaBB boards used the name admin, YaBBSE boards can have an admin by any name.

I have used both and personally YaBBSE is better than YaBB.
