What are the chances of the chatbox or forum being hacked. I Thought about it when and angry chatter told me he would hack the site. What are the chances of that happening.

the average ages of the peeps who come onto here are around 8-18(from my POV), and i doubt any of them would have learned how to hack.

I know but I was wondering if the site could be hacked.

IF anyone ever DID hack the site...the cops would be on their heels in seconds.
So even if it were something to worry about, the idiot who did the act would only be screwing themselves over and it wouldn't make a difference.

._. It depends on what you mean by hack, if you mean to log into someone else's account, it's possible but very unlikely that some random stranger may know how to do it. If you mean hack the website it self to take control over it, that would be in an entirely different ball park.
In order for something like that to take place, they would have to know a lot about the people who run the website and their privacy. Also if to "keep themselves off the radar", they would have to "infect" other computers and networks.

You realize if they are smart they would cover their tracks with proxies, bots, and other forms of precautions.

Overall: it's possible, but very pointless in a sense, because the hacker gains very little from doing so.

anyone openly saying they are going to hack, usually are just mad and showing off. Its the ones that dont say they are going to hack the site that are of concern.

Hahaha! Sounds like something Paladina would say.
No but really, you do realize the ages of these kids right?
Looking at the screen right now, I'm watching the most immature level i've seen yet.
To them, saying they are gonna hack is like you saying you hate Bill..
It will never happen :D
