Debate: should makers of tests like that below be expelled?

[DevaCat]

Thoughts?

Rhetorical question of course. Although I might propose a sandbox be created for the children.

In the meantime I can pray that schools reopen soon.

Well first id say some children can be very mature and not absolute idiots.

The children should stop playing games hacking the forum. Because let's face it, they're hacking the forum. Seems if you're hacking the website, you're at risk of being banned.

No one has hacked anything. A certain someone( not me) not saying any names has just been finding features that have not been shown to the forum public. Just cause you cant do something doesn't mean that you should accuse someone of hacking man.

The definition of hacking according to google:
The gaining of unauthorized access to data in a system or computer.

Now that's not what has been happening here has it?NO .

The "test below" has been deleted. This thread is closed.

Exposing "features that have not been shown to the forum public" qualifies as "unauthorized access", methinks.

I think expulsion is harsh, but a slap on the wrist wouldn't be unwarranted.

UNAUTHORIZED. While the feature is there, it is hidden because it was not intended for the members to use them. Using said features is, in a sense, hacking. In Christian's defense though, the feature was there in the first place.
