OSBA forum database leaked

Post by **Andrew** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 12:00 pm

PTCFast2 (The Administrator that intentionally caused OSBA to crash in October last year) has finally leaked the OSBA database from October - Link below.

The reprocussions from the leak are as of yet unknown, however at least two more splinter forums have been created from the code, fragmenting the community even further.

PTCFast2's motives for releasing the leak seem to be to gain added attention, however we cannot be certain. It is known that the leak itself and being openly homosexual are both signs that PTCFast2's morales are clearly not of the quality of the general beta community.

Members from BetaArchive should be careful when deciding to use the code for any purpose, as new forums will not survive, and will most likely cause more hostility within the beta community.

http://osba.r-type.ca is where a lot of the Ex OSBA members who are not in Glendacorp hang.

Could this be of any use? Or is a more-modern database being used for the new OSBA?

what are the usage rights on this?

Why would you want to use it? Its not really of much use, its just being stated as news.

aren't all of our passwords in there?

Post by **expert01** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 12:26 pm

They're encrypted, it's really REALLY hard to crack any.

good, cause i think some stuff of mine still use that password

Post by **Flare** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 12:29 pm

Encrypted in an unbreakable encryption. Ive worked with IPB databases before. Unrackable.

You MUST have an active IPB lisence to run any IPB forum. Unless you have one, prepare for a takedown warning.

I thought that phpBB had an IPB converter, but they must have gotten rid of it...

*nope it still exists*

If you can translate the full thing maybe we can add it

To be honest, this post linking the file should never have been made,
it's bad enough that erik has the damn thing why post a download link
for the rest of the world to download, personally, I find this a slap in the
face to Leibo & all others respectable from osba, posting a download link
to all members personal info...
What's this scene coming too.?
I'm sorry braindrain, nothing personal against you buddy, you know I don't
dislike you at all, this post just shouldn't have had the link to an osba
backup...

i agree. someone remove the link, may aswell not let it spread further

Post by **Jeff** » Thu Oct 05, 2006 6:02 am

Oh, sorry.

I posted that when i didn't know the passwords could be cracked.

DON'T POST THE DL LINK PEOPLE!!!
