Some people are so dumb
About a month ago, one of our dumber members posted a question about how to hack into yahoo accounts. Funny, we see a lot of that here, and it is always by people that have been a member for about 15 minutes.

It this particular question, I posted how easy it was to "hack a yahoo/hotmail" account, and all they had to do was email me the account they need to get into, and THEIR current account and password.

Since then, I have had about 15 morons peer me with their username and password. It has really been hard to not just go in and change the password.

My only regret is I had deleted the first ten, because it would have been great humor to post all the emails I have gotten about this.

A note to noobies. No, I will not hack into any account for you, nor will I assist you in anyway other than to publicly humiliate you and show your peers just what an a$$clown you are.
