You tend to not hear much about this now, probably because PHP and SQL security has been much improved over the years. I believe most 'bot attacks' now utilise databases of harvested email addresses and passwords in a 'brute force' method to get lucky and gain access to a website through standard login pages. (This happens a lot with Wordpress sites for example) Website shouldn't use file extention like .inc which is insecure so all executable files should ends in .php.....

I'm interested to hear yours and other peoples thoughts on this. We don't know it was 'he' and not just 'some of the threads'. You mean, at least for now, all of the threads from the past 16 months or so! If Gareth comes on the forum and says he thinks that 'he' had something to do with it, then I might listen. 3 hours ago, oz93666 said: The way management just deleted the old forum with no explanation indicates they regard members as sleeping partners... The management didn't delete the old forum.

They will never have their wages docked and they will never be 'defunded'. Unless, we kindly do it for them.

chocomel Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 From little private conversation I had with him, I gathered that he cared and had best intention for the forum. OK, it's just my subjective opinion and you could all go on arguing it's a pretence etc etc.... Anyway, I'm sure he knows too well that we are a paranoid lot that we are casting suspicion on everyone really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone code a virus that deletes files on someone's PC - what gain is there for the coder? None, maybe some smug self satisfaction but otherwise no gain, so why do it. I guess they can prove their programming prowess but can you take a virus to a job interview and show it off? Not sure, but companies sure do make a lot of money selling Anti-virus software so I suspect they create the problem and then sell the solution.

MI5 paymasters would expect him to put in 9 to 5 type hours , so he would have no trouble in building up the highest number of posts and reactions ... and no one here will notice he has no knowledge of the subject ... I can remember very little about Muir's posts , just that he had the strange idea the Cabal was run on Kabbakistic Magic ... when I questioned this he had no reply .... also near the end I remember he attacked two new members , simply for asking reasonable questions ... So the goal would be to gain management trust ... and finally get the password needed for access to forum settings , essential to bring it down .... After the cash Management would realize Muir did it ... They would be embarrassed ... would not want to talk about it ... close down a thread inquiring about Muir .... But then another thread on Muir starts ! ... they can't close again!!! So an announcement ... "Muir is well .He's just taking a break" Don't judge management harshly ... The stress and work in running any enterprise the size of Ickonic and davidicke.com is considerable ...But in addition to this all the dark forces are targeting you as well ... Not just MI5 agents ... but the mind control suggestions from electronic means and ET psychics , suggesting that you should trust certain individuals ... The only defense from this is a partnership with God/Divine Realm . This is what has enabled Alex Jones to survive and expand over decades ... He prays daily and asks for help ...Even though his idea of God is distorted by Christian beliefs ...It still works! .... So if Muir returns after his "Break" I'll eat my words ....

This account was created on Sunday 17th May, which was at least a clear 24 hours after the forum hack occurred. Maybe the block on new members was only applied during the early hours of Sunday morning? This account, along with some other accounts created on the Saturday, could have just snuck in there. xs92sn Edited May 23, 2020 by numnuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want SE to continue as the only active mod so I asked a few different members, who all said "Thank you but no" That included Muir. After the 'council' concept (about 2 months later) I asked Muir again and still he said "No" Muir .... the same as all those who should be given mod permissions .... did not want to be a mod. Eventually, after many PM's, he agreed to be a mod. LOL .... sorry I laugh because after that we had many 'heated' conversations ....
