What the heck?!?!

[Psycho Dave]

Okay, here is what happened.

Some hacker from Turkey is going around to all the message boards that
use PHP-based Phorum software. He basically takes advantage of a
security bug in the software, and screws up the phorum. I decided that
it's best to just start from scratch than bother trying to fix it. PHP
does not offer any solution for fixing this, and rather than have is
just happen again, I moved the forums over to google-groups... or at
least created forums here.

Consider the message base gone. I am not recovering it. It's history.
Too bad.

But hey -- if all of the usual suspects come here, things will be back
to normal pretty soon.

Fuck, how did this asshole find the likes of the weirdcrap boards and
even care enough to hack it? I mean we didn't even have over 10 real
frequent users?

And the lack of being able to post as a guest will deminish the amount
of different personalities, i'm hoping goldy sticks to aryanmeister the
whole way through!

Apparently, the group of Hackers just targets pretty much any website
that uses Phorum. I searched on Google for "master_revenge", which is
the name the hacker identified himself as, and every site was powered
by Phorum software, even Russian and Chinese ones. It was really weird
seeing the Chinese sites hacked. They would start out Chinese, and then
there would be an English message from the hacker, then the rest would
be in Chinese.

I was too busy trying to fix the problem, plus I work for a living. By
the time I was done, you had already posted.

Too bad AwovenSorrow probably won't be coming back. I did save all our
aim messages, but his weirdcrap post were SO much better.
