  1. This is pretty classy, a step above my ads, I guess. [ATTACH]274._xfImport[/ATTACH]
  2. Ok, this thread is to list the qualifies and things you like about theadminzone.com. It can't be all bad, can it? On the whole, I don't think I have any personal problems with the current moderators, as haphazard and inconsistent as their actions are. That's Howie's fault, really. I think the design is nice, and for the most part appears, to be pretty speedy. That's all I can say at the moment. Maybe more later.

  4. Maybe one of the 5-6 other admins could it. Just think how crazy that admin log must look
  5. I'm not sure Chris D is still staff. Howie assigned him staff without his knowledge a couple of years ago, and when Chris found out, he was like 'wtf, dude?' So Howie might have removed him. So 14 moderators, 8 that are admins? Jesus
  6. Yeah, I was going to start a thread about that. Ali was the original trash talker, a great self promoter, probably the biggest individual sports icon, but I'm not sure what kind of American Hero people are saying he was.
  7. I don't know how or why @Gary @GTB puts up with that disruption of service.
  8. Can't login with my account anymore, @Gary @GTB changed my password and is using my account now for his joking around. Just pick a different avatar Gary, you don't have permission to use mine. [ATTACH]260._xfImport[/ATTACH]
  9. Is that from email or a link? What has he done to prevent this happening a tenth time? Nothing, it appears. And it doesn't appear he even knows how the malicious file was added to the server, so the exploit can still exist?
  10. His socks. Hope I don't have to file a DMCA notice for using my image, but that's the kind of stuff Gary does
  11. Opioid painkillers killed Prince, When will these substances be outlawed, along with rice cookers and guns!?!? WHEN!? Where is the OUTRAGE!? Prince cause of death: opioid overdose, AP reports For the record, I smoked opium (or at least was led to believe it was opium) one time, didn't think it was that spectacular.
  12. This isn't MC, but could be (runs away).....

  14. Thought this was pretty funny, Shaq poking a little fun at himself: "You know about free throws?"
  15. This is a law passed in 2014 in order to help protect members of web sites when those web sites experience data breaches. Read about it here: Senate Bill 1524 (2014) - The Florida Senate In part: This rule appears to fit the situation that TAZ recently experienced, data breaches, possible vulnerabilities, password hacking attempts, with not much information from TheAdminZone.com LLC. I'd like to keep this thread updated with facts about information that people DO KNOW about these hacking attempts, breaches, or whatever is going on at TAZ. As I understand it, there have been at least 3 known incidents of security breaches at TAZ. ------------------------------------ In one instance, late May 2015, a password reset was performed for all members on TheAdminZone.com. At the time, members were told that a staff member's account had been "hacked" by a member of the Vietnamese site, Brivium.com. The staff member had accounts on both TAZ and Brivium.com. At first, there was an explanation that the staff member's password between TAZ and Brivium were "similar, but not identical". I'm still curious as to why that information was needed, as even a "similar" password wouldn't gain a hacker an advantage to accessing the TAZ forum. Later, claims were made that the Brivium "hacker" somehow installed a keylogger on the staff member's PC, and the TAZ password was then lifted from this staff member's account. After much discussion, the majority of members came to the conclusion that the staff member had simply used the SAME password on both sites, which allowed somebody with access to the Brivium forum database to access the TAZ staff member's account. Once the "hacker" had access to the TAZ staff member's account, the "hacker" attempted to remove posts on TheAdminZone's forum that were critical of Brivium.com. As a result of this breach, the staff member had their password changed, and all members of TheAdminZone.com had their passwords reset. As far as I know, I don't think the staff member was identified, whether they still are a staff member, nor if it was found out if Brivium was the real perpetrator. There was also no evidence provided that anybody had installed a keylogger on the staff member's PC. ------------------------------------ In another more recent instance, on or before May 13th, 2016, server problems and unavailability were present, and then a full member password reset was performed. The explanation was thus: TAZ Security No further information was provided. The only thing evident from that description is that the mention of 2FA, and "small number of accounts" means that there was an attempt to overtake another staff member's account. Was the hacking attempt successful? What was stolen, if anything? Why the password reset? What is the update? Will Brivium be blamed again? As of today, the official answer to that question is that the administrator is still looking into it. On May 13th, prior to this announcement, it was discovered that old installations of TheAdminZone's forum software were still located on the server, and that addons developed by Brivium were installed on at least one of these installations. It was surmised that these Brivium addons may have been the reason for the password reset announced on May 16th, but no connection or information has been forthcoming identifying or explaining the 2 incidents. ------------------------------------ I thought there was another password reset incident, or something defined as a "hacking attempt", but I can't find it at the moment. I'll update the thread to fix my mispellings, and to try better grammar.
  16. Wow, that's a great choice. Just one question... who the f id David French?!
  17. According to a spokesman, Glenn Beck is "only interested in the truth, he's not a conspiracy theorist'. That doesn't appear to be the case in at least the case of "The Saudi" that sued him for defamation, when Beck claimed that a man he called "The Saudi" was actually the guy behind the Boston Marathon bombings.

  18. Can't stand this guy, complete snake oil salesman, fake, phony. Everything, needs to shut up and shit himself. His empire is crumbling, and this looks like a publicity stunt. SiriusXM suspends Glenn Beck over Donald Trump comments Conservative host Glenn Beck has been suspended by SiriusXM satellite radio for agreeing with an author who asked hypothetically “what patriot will step up” to remove Republican Donald Trump from office if he’s elected president and oversteps his authority. SiriusXM said Beck’s program was suspended for this week and the company was “evaluating its place” in the lineup. The comments “may be reasonably construed by some to have been advocating harm against an individual currently running for office,” SiriusXM said in a statement. During an interview May 25, author Brad Thor said he was “about to suggest something very bad” before citing a weak Congress and asking “what patriot will step up” to stop President Trump if he tried to exceed the powers of his office. “I would agree with you on that,” Beck responded. http://nypost.com/2016/05/31/siriusxm-suspends-glenn-beck-over-donald-trump-comments/?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=NYPFacebook&utm_medium=SocialFlow

  20. I just kind of whipped this up for Paul. (not really)
