The thing is if it really will be useful or will it only be a semi-trash forum where all threads regarding hacking will be send and be ignored.

They won't be ignored. If anything, they would be higher priority.
A place for everything, and everything in it's place.

unfortunately the latest exploit is coming from the actual script.... but a good server setup could prevent its being used....
I still voted Yes, though its apparently already a done deal.

Yes and in such a case a sticky in that section or forum wide announcement would be nice.
Absolutely we badly need it.
I agree, we see threads like these all the time. It would be nice to have some basic security tutorials stickied
or maybe a thread containing links to a load of tutorials
When the forum got restructed a while ago, I was hoping this was coming. Labrocca is quite right, this is a very important forum, as people reading and seeing others issues can also learn.
^ good point aristotle & labrocca ! Though I wonder why it wasn't immediately patched?
Glad this is being added.
