In light of recent events with people posting howtos on exploiting services on servers.. I guess a formal rule needs to be written that posting exploits on this forum would be considered against the rules..

You would hope that on a professional forum that you could assume that posting exploits on a public forum is generally a bad idea.. But I guess you need to cover your bases.....


I'm not quite sure how to word it yet.. But I'm sure the mods can come up with something....

Seems to be covered in the first line The basic ground rules for discussions on the WebHostingTalk are simple: be polite, use common sense, don't break the law and don't post any message that even hints at advertising. But, I hear ya. :)
