Come on guys, if someone actually puts some time into helping him, he'll stop posting topics over and over about the same thing.

Get my logic?

Yeah, there's just one problem with your seemingly flawless theory. HE WON'T LISTEN! Every time either of us suggests a fix or a change, he refuses to listen, and instead starts asserting that he's right and we're all wrong.

If he does that I won't help him, then someone will hack into his site and then realize that we were right and he was wrong.

Nah we hacked his website last time, and spammed it out with loads of fake user registrations and he still doesn't listen.

Also, I love how he decided to use a Flash login system. I downloaded and decompiled the thing within seconds. I found out that he uses an XML-based user system as well. Finding out the password of any particular account is a snap. The XML file of any user is named after that user's username. One would only have to know a user's username to gain access to their account password.

Is that in relation to my post, or to the fact that adam235436305 decided to use a Flash-based login?

Then listen: remove the garbage login (it will only every serve to easily reveal passwords of people who are stupid enough to register on your site), fix your code and remove all that ugly crap on your site (which is pretty much your entire site because there's nothing else but the garbage design).
Again, your site is ugly, invalid, unsafe, and not in the least useful to anyone at all.
Learn about valid code and basic aesthetics before doing it again.

You want to be productive and think you know everything, but you don't know anything and are being counter-productive.

That increases the font size.

Could it be useful on a usability level if the website increased in size? Yes and no. I however doubt you're capable of achieving something like that.

@ adam9075389:
Man, why are you such a stubborn dick? First things first. WHY CAN'T YOU CHANGE HOSTS?! I mean, it's not like you actually pay anything for your crappy hosting. Go to 110mb.com, and make your site there. You'll have PHP there, so you can stop with all these insecure workarounds. Why do you insist on staying with this garbage host? Is it really that hard to move a few images and files?

Appologies in advance, I mean this post in the most lighthearted, jokey way.

News post from 1st September 2008:

110mb.com hacked! Thousands of card details stolen

The popular free webhost 110mb.com confessed to an unauthorised break in today. The card details of all their paying customers has been compromised; they urge everyone to cancel their credit cards and apologise for the inconvienence.

How the hacker gained access to the payment database is still a mystery, however the access logs point out that the attack originated from the domain orangemedia.110mb.com. Having checked the code powering the site, the chief engineer has been reported to have had a nervous breakdown.

The junior engineers, who were apparently inexperienced enough to cope with the sheer horror of the site's source code proclaimed "It's.. it's... indescribable.... The guy who wrote this makes so many XML calls. We provide him a free MySQL database and everything! Who the hell reads the contents of their <title> tag from XML!?!?".

The owner, commonly known as "adam2510" had this to say:

"fuk of[f] its in beta"

Once again, 110mb.com would like to profusely appologise for any inconvienence caused, and is offering all paying customers 3 months free service.

Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

Nah... it's probably that you Brits have your own version of sarcasm which we Amereecans do not comprehend... Then again, sarcasm is pretty hard to interpret from text. NG really ought to introduce <sarcasm> </sarcasm> tags to the BBS...
