A friendly hacker?

Are you sure you don't have a forum that allows posts by unregistered members?

Seems like if a person had hacked your board, they would do a lot more than post a greeting to the rest of the world.

Maybe a URL would be helpful..

If I was you, I would also seriously consider upgrading your 3.8.1 board to the current software as it addresses some security concerns.
