I'd like the person who's causing all this trouble to pay close attention to this post. Unfortunately I am off sick today, but when I come back to work tomorrow, I am going to clean this mess up, and then I am going to take some very real action against you - not by banning you, but by taking some real action which will affect your real life. This is not a physical threat, but merely a warning - you have comprimised our site's security and gained illegal access to people's details, which is a very serious matter and you will be dealt with accordingly.
This is a warning to you - we will do everything we have to to stop you from visiting these forums in the future, and rest assured the correct cause of action will be taken. You will learn that actions taken on a computer can affect real life, and that this is way past a joke - you've caused a lot of damage on these forums already, and have caused a number of users to up and leave due to your actions. If you continue to do what you're doing then you risk us shutting down the forums completely for a while until we can make sure that user details cannot be comprimised.
To other UKchatforums.com users, I apologise for this person and I hope you will continue to enjoy the site as it was meant to be used - for fun, and a mild distraction from wors/school/life. It's a shame your enjoyment of this site has been tarnished by a few ignorant individuals and we will do everything to make sure this will not happen again.
Please note, none of this was caused by ANY Special Reserve security flaws - the reason a few accounts have been taken is because some users unfortunately released details which they shouldn't have ie. e-mail addresses and passwords. The SR accounts and secure system remain 100% secure and always will be, it's completely safe to browse and place orders as long as you don't tell anyone your user details.
Thank you
Ali

Thats my account that he's hacked into! He asked me who I was on SR and of course I said Figo, so he changed my MSN name after hacking into my account and there you go...

Sorry to bring back an older post but I can't believe how stupid I was after reading what you've just put.
He was under Lawrence's account and he asked me for middle names for a project he was working on at school.
Of course, i gave him mine which just so happens to be the same as my dads. Buah!
