      It is a bit suspicious how you all got accepted after I posted my l337 hacking script.

      You owe me royalties!

        No, I never got a confirmation email. I did sign up, but for some reason I never got one.

          I'm no forum backend code expert, but when you sign up you submit your details to their database.

          I would guess they would have some kind of automatic purge for people who do not activate their accounts through the email activation, but if they still had your email address to send you that message then you're still in their database and you've been exposed.

          I am signed up and activated on their forums, but I did not get a beta key. I got the security message as well.

            I never got a security message either.

              Well, my guess is that my password isn't exposed :) Never heard anything of that QA Boss thingy.

                The name, QA Boss, doesn't that sound an awful lot like a gaybar?
