Did anyone else see that photo of Dr. Bob with 'Ghey' scrawled accross it in red letters?! What's going on? Not related to those strange bugs people keep finding in posts on the newbie board?
Is Babble-land under seige?!

Well it only appears when I go to the main board, it's not here on Admin or the others. I've saved a copy on my computer, which I'm just thinking probably wasn't too wise since it's likely a bug of some sort...... oh well.
Does 'Ghey' mean Gay?

Friends,
It is written here,[....I removed it...]
If this is a post that was removed that could be of the hacker, then could not that be traced to that person?

I believe the post that was removed was posted under my screen name and it was gibberish and believe me it's all that I can do to post on babble I'm computer illiterate so no I would definitely say to that one unless I misunderstood easy for me Love Phillipa

Friends,
It is written here,[...the removed post..was posted under my (Phillpa's) name...gibberish...].
Now if there was a post, regardless as to what the screen name was, could it not be that the poster posted from his/her computer and could have left a clue as to who the poster was?

Since Dr. Bob has reported the incident, I think the authorities will likely know the best course of action.

Friends,
It is written here,[...reported the incident..authorities..the best course of action...].
My concern in this thread is to offer support from my perspective to those that may be concerned about if the authorities are the FBI or others,that any members here could come into the investigation in some way.
First, let me say that I do not know anything about who or why concerninng the incident. But what I see according to what I know about computers being identified, if the person that is being sought that did hack the site used his/her own computer to make a post, then it is my understanding that the computer can be traced to somewhere and possibly someone.
If that is so, then there is the potential IMO to think that the hacker will be apprehended quickly and without an investigation beyond identifying the numbers of the computer from if there was post by the hacker that was removed.
I think that if that is so, that members here could feel relieved to think that there could potentially not be an investigation that could result for one to , let's say, be interviwed by perhaps the FBI.
In {Casablanca}, in the end, he says [...round up the usual suspects...]. I think that if that movie was made today, that that line might not be included in the script.

Friends,
Another reason that I think that it could be important to know that there is the potential IMO to apprehend the suspect quickly by identifying computer numbers, is that if that is so, the following could be IMO good to know.
First, if the hacking was done in the manner that I think, because of the hacker posting, then it might not have been done by someone that had an intent to use member's infomation, but to be done as a prank. That may be of some help to those that are concerned about their passwords being used for other things that could be important to them.
I tend to lean to the theory that the hacker was not seeking other's infomation and perhaps did it for other reasons unbeknownst to me. If so, then IMO the incident could have the potentisl to be concluded by the apprehansion of the hacker. OTOH, the hacker could have really wanted other's infomation. But if the hacker wanted infomation only, what could have been the purpose of the defacing-defamatory scribbling?
I tend to lean greatly to the theory that if infomation was wanted, that if the hacker posted, that could IMO be conterproductive to that aim.

> LouFriends,
I ask that we not rush to any judgment as to who the hacker could be. On one hand, if one could think that particular members could be of interest, could it also not be that those same members would not do such a thing? I think that the authorities could find the person in question, and if so, we could maybe find out if the person was seeking to use infomation or not, and go from there.
