Remote code execution, the usual.

Why does your comment keep deleting and replying?

FTG has been flagging all my comments to below zero (and thus hidden) for around a month now. I did nothing and ignored it.

I decided to solve it by deleting and recreating any comment he hides.

I see, my Ginabot is blowing up lol, all good i figured there was a reason lol

Should see mine.
