Title: Refomat Did not delete logs...
Post by: KernelPanic on September 08, 2008, 04:04:30 PM
I reformatted after a hack and still have my 6 pages long of blank logs... The reformat didn't nuke them... Why is that?

That is a bug.  You need to post in the correct section.  this is the FAQ section.

Again Arthur Dent =/fail

Format HDD will also remove all gateway logs (http://www.hacker-project.com/forum/index.php?topic=75.msg266#msg266)

Sorry Arthur but it took all of 10 seconds to search and find Sir Emi's message about it.

I was talking about another thread like this one when someone actually said that logs arent deleted and Emi said it wasnt a bug. It can have happened either after or before Emis update so I shouldnt say anything.

Edit: Grammar. Again.

Logs will not be deleted after a format because it can be easily exploited by creating a newbie account or using another owned server and routing trough it to lose track.

However logs are deleted automatically when 72 hours old.

I cant believe that I was right while V-Man was wrong. I am truly the master of HP.

Only because Sir Emi went back on his word again.  As you can see by the post I linked to it was an update.

Hmm.
1. I was right, V-Man was wrong, Emi have been proven useful.
2. I was wrong, V-Man was right, Emi have screwed something up.

No 2 should be correct by deafult.
