would you be worried if you were on this list?

[dobrovdave]

seems there is a leak in AB towers of user names and e-mail addressess.
Did you join pre 2005? are you on the list? are you worried?

IAMWORRIED . . if you are STILL worried . . . . .

It is most unlikely the Ed will respond to emails.

Why not write to him at
Answerbank Limited
25 London Road
Kettering
Northamptonshire
NN16 0EF

You never know - he just might reply.

Or the Ed may be located at The AnswerBank which is owned by UKNet Guide which in turn is owned by Crystal Guides Ltd,
Registered Office: 118-120 Great Titchfield Street, London. W1W 6SS

Why hasn't the editor been on and said anything about this whether its true or false? Thats what I want to know

[ChuckFickens]

B00

It wasn't your name, and the username in entry 29183 is Boo not B00

[jno]

well, I'm not after having my real name known, B00. No special reason, I'm just kinda private.

[IAMWORRIED]

I already got a reply to an email i sent last night.
And that is why they have removed it for the time being :(

I am not sad at its removal, but the fact they use the time being words because apparently its a new feature of AB2 where all usernames, emails and ip will be visible for all users to view to stop all the alias nonsense going on. That was just a small sample they were testing during some beta.
they removed it as it was meant to be beta only and not yet available until it was nicer laid out and working properly with the new site and when the new site starts it will have a differnt privacy policy you have to agree to that says your info will be shown to everyone as -- the word they use was transparency?!??!.

so i am not happy that when ab2 starts they will have all peoples usernames and emails and ip showing. not just a handful.

they said they will explain the whole situation on their ab blog shortly :(

[lilsecret]

angel - - because the Ed has not written a blog since 16 January - that is over 21 weeks ago!

DO you remember his Friday afternoon chats on here? They are long gone, along with the promise of a new AB in March or April. The site is a total joke - and who are the jokers?

[leggysreturn]

you mean ab 2.0??


lol


what a crock


btw velvetee said they were copying it last nite so it will still be out there



woooaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh























lmao

[leggysreturn]

im worried copy n paste the content of the email from the editor then.

[angel21]

that long, crikey,

thought the blogs were becoming more regular for a while -obviously not

You'd think they would have mods looking at the site everyday

[another-view]

I don't see how displaying the email addresses will help stop the aliases, as surely people have to create a new email address each time they create a new account?

[kjc]

How many on here are going to agree to the 'new privacy policy' so that your details are available for all to see?

LOL...........

At least there will be no more of people accusing you of being someone else.
I say bring it on!!!!

[IAMWORRIED]

AB-ED blog was updated 27 may 2009

will be updated later today they said.

[leggysreturn]

ips change regularly too


never sen them on public display but displayed in ur answers only visible to yourself before on phbb forums.


this is more crap from i am worried



trollling the day away


lol

[Rollo]

Recent updates are from the oily rag not the engineer.

[dot.haukes]

it's not realy beleivable that this one person stumbled across this when most of us are loitering around ab each day, has anyone else happened upon 'the list'?

[leggysreturn]

lol dot are you finally relising what i said last night is true?


lol



i smelll a dabbler here


lol

[kjc]

Well I shall reserve judgement until I have read the ED's account of it all.

But if it's true that your details are shown on here, then a lot of people will be dismayed that they can only have ONE name.

[lilsecret]

IAMWORRIED - yes, there was an update on 27 May - but it was from (as Rollo says above) the Oily Rag. The supposed REAL Ed has not surfaced since January.

Who cares, anyway?
