Exclusive Board is being published on a public site? How? and why?

[DN BROKER]

I upgraded my membership for one reason, to take advantage of Private Boards like the Exclusive Forum Boards

Noticed that my sales thread has been published on a public site and I'm puzzled... how was this done?

Easy black hat technique from an existing member. Will not explain the method in public, but glad to assist the administrators and to you in private as I use this technique on another site with a custom PHP script. Easy "exploit" fix IMO.

Ehh, I'd classify it as grey hat as it's very similar to "REFEREES" left on your public Webalizer.

PM sent to you and administrator to understand 'how'.

Thanks for pointing out the issue we're facing. Who ever is responsible for this should have their account terminated.

The problem with that is that I believe the forum /f525 is accessible to any gold member and that's cheap compared to the profits they can make. (Again :?

So, there's plenty of factors involved than what I just gave you.

One is open to the public and the other is only visible by other exclusive members.

That particular forum is, as noted:

"Maximum Exposure - Exclusive domains for sale section. This section is open to Exclusive Members to post domains for sale which are viewable by all logged-in members, and able to be responded to by Gold and Platinum members. If you wish for your thread to be seen only by Exclusive members, please use the Exclusive Sales forum instead. There's no "domain in title" rule for this Exclusive forum."

I suppose shouldn't use /f525 then if you want secrecy then.

Though what I brought up does cover the "Exclusive Sales" forum as well, that is if the insider is an exclusive member... :?:
