There's only one way for an account to be deleted. And that's if Tony or webmaster deletes it.
Well I've just had to re-register as my username and password were not registered on here already!
I entered all the details the same (Including username) and it let me register without saying that someone is already using that username!
Unless Tony's got a good reason why my account was deleted, then Special Reserve, or atleast UKdiscussions has been hacked and is NOT SAFE!
Tony please reply, and check my details if you don't believe me! They are all the same!
NOTE - this was due to an error, not a hack.

Edgy, you did say that the person had hacked your other accounts, if they had and you used the same password for all of your things then that would more than likely be how it happened, and by the sounds of things, it is more than likely someone you know who is doing it, or how else would they get to know you came on here?? Also if they had hacked or had any other access to your machine, they could also have just copied your cookie, wouldn't be that difficult!!
I did read somewhere that you had the persons ip. If you give it to me i'll look it up for you on a WHIOS database and let you know exactly where it is coming from!!

They should do know. It was our old mail server. Unfortunately it ran on a macintosh and it was useless. When we first started we didn't send confirmation e-mails, so it's no surprise that old accounts will still work.
