Contacted a PR person in between the last thread and this one, I'm guessing? That's a rapid 180.

You have a long way to go in my mind, in terms of fixing the initial response. You probably have help now, which is great, but your initial kneejerk demonstrates underlying trouble to me which you need to fix.

You're in a tough spot, too, because you can't delete those godawful comments without looking suspicious.

huh? you realize this was a pet project right? we're two dudes with no jobs.
You repeatedly write some form of that assertion (we're two nerds) as if it is supposed to excuse something. I honestly couldn't give a rat's ass regarding who you are. I care about your actions and your actions alone. Stop making excuses!

I'd like you to apologize not only for the disclosure, but also to the reporter for how you treated him in the other thread. The entire other thread of your responses is disgusting, and you don't get to write it off because of your gender, quantity, or employment status. Own your comments and stop excusing them with that bullshit line.

I have to admit that I would also be pleased if your service disappeared until you're working with somebody who has a little more experience with secure Web applications; this mistake betrays your experience. Since we all started somewhere, though, I can only hope you fix this on your own.
