What is the dumbest things you have maked to your site?

[galaxyAbstractor]

My dumbest thing was installing a script that blocked some ports to prevent hacking so that f_sock_open got crazy because it couldn't connect to theese ports. Pretty funny accident (using other script now).

Added a bad line of code by mistake that caused the website to reload every time it BEGAN to load, rendering it unviewable.

while {}

Without any code describing when the while should happen, so it went on indefinitely - spent 90Mb worth of bandwidth when I just let the page load by accident. Had to buy more! Luckily I fixed it without it costing me loads.

it is when i purchased an ilegal IPB board, took me months to modify it and make it look beautiful. i also had a hard time with the scripting, add-ons, etc, etc, ect,

Then after that i found-out in some forums that my purchased of IPB from my other website is not legal they told me. and you know what i did? i hurriedly delete it. AWTZ!

You know after all those hard works, it just ends up like that. i search for the vendor who sold me that stuff, i cant find him anywhere. anyhow, after that i did ask the main website about it and they told me that the board is ok but it dont support upgrading with there company. so i think twice to reinstalling it again, but i lost my copy. too bad for me, and i also dont want to install that for i may have trouble with that kind of copy in the future.

Meh, you could always run a copy of IPB trial. It runs forever without expiring

I used a encryption scheme I found off the internet for storing and retrieving passwords. It supported encryption and decryption which was why I chose it. Come to find out, it was barely more than simple replacement, and that barely more made it useless because it didn't always encrypt and then decrypt to the same thing! Needless to say, I learned a lot and now I use sha1 and have no reason to decrypt.
