Sometime back I had some problems with my admin. He went on a power trip the second he got admin title and started harassing the forum members and had pretty much driven off the regulars. He was even cyber-stalking me. This happened over a three or four day period of time and by time I got him to stop it was too late. Then one day I tried to login to my main user account on forum and could not access it. So I logged into one of my secret admin accounts and was able to instantly access the forum. I suspected he might be behind the situation so I tried to ban him but could not. I worked for over an hour trying to access my main account (though all my other accounts he didn't know about were accessible). Out of desperation I deleted not banned his account. And, the moment his account was deleted, I was able to login to my main forum owner account. I still don't know how this guy could have hacked me. Or, maybe how he changed it so that I could not access my account. But once he was gone, I could get on with no problems. I know he was very good with software and forums. This was an extreme case of staff retaliation. Just wanted to share that story just in case something similar has happened to other forum owners.
