NGN: "It seems it's a bad idea to ignore warnings from users about your game's security. As developers behind Super Meat Boy found out today, these threats can turn very real and impact your customers.
Super Meat Boy World has been taken down by an alleged member of the Anonymous hacking group, after he was brushed off by the developers when trying to reveal a potential security flaw."

First rule of not getting hacked, is being humble and listen especially if somebody tells you about a security vulnerability.
This douchebag developer didn't listen and thought he was right and the hacker proved how wrong he was.
Good job
Useless point that doesn't need to be proven.
I agree that hacking him was uncalled for, but at the same time do you want your information released to the malicious public because people are irresponsible?
My take it on this is different than yours since it is a public server i.e. stored public information and therefore exposed to public actions. In my opinion this was for the greater good and not really malicious.
Ironically, in this case two wrongs did make it right! ...well hopefully if Meat Boy team steps up that is!
Did you just try to correct me by saying exactly what I said?
OBVIOUSLY he was warning them of other hackers. But then when he goes around and does it himself, then HE'S the problem, whether he warned them or not.
That's like saying the bad guy in Die Hard 4 was good because he warned the government first. Dumb reply deserves dumb example.
