As you are all aware, both Vaclav and Horace have been permanently banned. There was a security glitch in the forum (since fixed) that they had been taking advantage of (if you read their posts, they hint at having private information.) Horace lied about having unauthorized access to the moderator's forum (yes, one exists) to at least one moderator when confronted. If either Horace or Vaclav had any good will whatsoever, they would have alerted the moderators, and not used the information maliciously.

I hope that this answers all your questions.

Fok.

Wow, I thought that vBulletin was suppossed to be more robust than other forum software - oh well, it is impossible to test all vulnerabilities.
Thanks for the explanation Fok.

Pretty egregious behaviour. Thanks for clarifying.

New senior members for FNB.com, I suppose. Some people need to get a life.

Hmm... this leads tremendous credence to the theory that Vaclav was merely a show, because if he really was as bumbling and clueless as he seemed, he would lack both the ambition and technical acumen to take part in such things.

I will miss Horace. Vaclav, to a far lesser degree.

Well you could hire an illegal immigrant to pose as him.

(It's a joke I just couldn't resist, Kent, please take it that way)

I'll miss Vaclav. Wonder who he really was as he knew a good deal about subculture stuff that surprised me. I bet the moderator forum has some good tidbits

I think this is all very weird. What happened to the Labelking?

He was genuinely interesting!
