"It's better me break in and make the fact I did public, than someone break in silently and wipe the box, losing hundreds of hours of both the team's and clients' time."

It's better yet to break in and discreetly notify the folks involved. Show a screenshot at Twitter.com that you COULD have tweeted. Voila-- you've done something positive.

Going public is an immature ego play that doesn't consider the feelings of lots of folks. Even if you want the the ego boost, post a "How I saved PHPfog" post-mortem when the issue is resolved.

Shame on you.
