Admins cannot view members passwords without either looking directly into the database or installing a mod.

you can edit a member's profile by going to members.asp and clicking on the on the right side of the table in the row of the member's name. Or, you can view a member's profile by clicking on one of the profile links in a post made by that member, and when you're logged in as admin, you can click the member's name on the top-left of the table.
You can only delete members by going to members.asp and clicking the on the right side of the table, in the row of the member's name. Remember that if a member has made posts and is then deleted, all his/her posts will get N/A as the author's name. In those cases it might be more interesting to permanently lock a member.<

Hi all. Recently a friend of mine who has a Snitz Forum like these ones, and is kept by the server:
http://www.inworg.com/
Just a day, she saw that her forum was disappeared, with all the messages on it. She (and me), just wrote a lot of email to that server, but without any answer. I wish to understand if is possible that a hacker can go in, and modify or erase completely a forum. Also keep in mind that after 2 days, magically, the forum reappeared...but TOTALLY EMPTY !!! Thank so much for your help....but my friend is just desperate for this . Fabrizio question<

If it was a 3.3 forum, without security updates, it's quite possible a hacker did it.<
