I would like to direct JP's attention to the addict's forum where I just BEGAN a thread in there. And I would like to have someone verify this for me. I cannot view the threads, but I did just START one. I will not say how I did this now, but if JP would like to contact me I would be more than happy to explain it in depth to him.
And I just got a way to view the new threads posted in there. Just got that this second!
And I am in there!!
who cares lamer
Biting my style eh? When you and JP get the bug all fixed up, please post how you did it. :)
Sure, I will. And yes I am trying to be like you, you were a very good example on all of the newbies here at aol and I exremely appreciate you handling it how you did.
Just one more thing, how did you end up doing it when you got in? I never heard HOW you did it.
Hmm.. now you have me playing around :)
It seems like anyone can post a new thread to the private forum without having the required posts. I still can't figure out a way to view the forum though. I was trying all last night as well when I discovered that other bug.
I hope JP doesn't get annoyed when we are tinkering around with the site. I don't think he minds as long as no damage is done, and the bug is reported responsibly.
Here is a link to the post I made when I found the bug. I edited the post and included how it was done once the bug was fixed.

Good work. :)
Thanks,
And if you would like me to tell you what the posts are about for proof or just plain curiosity just ask man.
Nah, no proof needed. :)
I want to find out how you are viewing the private threads though. I was trying all last night to do that while playing around with the other bug. Don't tell me though, that will take all the fun out of it. ;)
Hehe,

Ah,
Okay girl problem. I get it. No harm, no foul.
Anything happen with this yet? I'm still interested in how you were able to view forums.
I believe he was able to view the forums judging by the PM he sent me pointing out a problem he had with a thread I posted there.
Unless he can really guess he did it.
Greetings All:
OOOooooooooooook. These problems have been fixed. I think that's the last of the AO Addicts errors. Basically, it was the same problem as before, except using different files. When I pasted over some check-code, I forgot about differences in variable names =0.
Below is the e-mail that I got from 3ntropy that explains the problem that he found (it's written in a language that resembles English, so you should be able to figure it out.)

Hello JP,
I would just like to say that I have been at your site only for awhile now and I greatly appreciate how you have handled it and kept it up. That is why I am willing to be cooperative here.

Instead of worrying about the php authorization I simply sidestepped it.
There are a list of things you can do with a forum be it general chit chat or addict's I just exploited these ideas. To post in the addict's forum I just opened a regular window to post in the general chit chat forum, and changed the forum idea consecutively until it hit Addict's, from there, there is no authorization required so it allowed me to began a new post without verification of my status. Here is the specific http site. {
http://www.antionline.com/newthread....ead&forumid=61 } I started with forumid=48 for general chit chat then incremented it upward until it hit the addict's forum. Simple but effective.
Details: {View posts}
To view all of the responses to the posts I followed the same basic idea.
Instead of worrying about the php authorization I simply sidestepped it. I went to the general chit chat forum and started following all of the ways that I can find and see posts in it. Then I applied this to the addicts forum until I got a hit. The several ways to view repsonses to posts are. . .click on thread [no work], subscribe to forum [currently testing, appears to be working], search [no work], and to view the previously posted threads I exploited the fact that when you BEGIN to reply to a thread you can see the last 20 or so posts to that thread, so again I took from the general chit chat, I clicked on reply to a thread I can reply to I.E. {
http://www.antionline.com/newreply.p...hreadid=221234
}. This linked me to the reply window for my thread in the General chit chat. From here I simply changed the threadid to a number in the addict's forum IE {
http://www.antionline.com/newreply.p...hreadid=152316
} And in this reply window I am able to view the last several replies to the thread, however I am unable to post a reply, but I am viewing the window and viewing all of the other replies to the post.
