I can understand, why somebody would spend time and effort, criticising ( or hacking at the extreme ) a site that represents something they have strong feelings regarding ( not saying I agree with such activity mind you ) . But a long standing flight sim site ??????????? FFSK |

Surely if you want to test a proof of concept you do it to your own server where there is nothing important to be lost and you aren't breaking a shed load of laws? |
