I Apologize...

Okay, guys, I want to apologize for the hack. Yes, I did it, but I had inside help. There is currently no way that a regular user to go in and actually hack Brickfilms.com, as in SQL injection, or variable overwrites, as far as I know. The only reason I could hack it was with inside help, help that had access to the main news page. I'm not going to reveal who. If they want to come forward, they can, but I won't mention them.

The main reason we did this was because we were bored, I guess. This was not a tactic to try to drive people over to ILB, even though there was a link. My help suggested that. I guess another reason I did it was to show that there are a few security flaws with Brickfilms, because, as you saw, I was able to inject an external javascript into the page, and rewrite the page.

I want to throughly apologize for this. I also want you guys to STOP BLAMING ALED! He had no part in this WHAT-SO-EVER! LEAVE HIM ALONE. I also want to say that I will accept any punishment you guys see fit; if you don't want me to be part on the ILB staff, I'm okay with that, and will move on. If you guys want me banned from here or Brickfilms.com, I'm okay with that; I'll just move on with my life.

Again, I apologize for this; it won't happen again.

- Jason
