Hacked?

Post by RachelN »

Was the forum hacked earlier on? As I got a strange Turkish Islamic Group screen/message when I tried to get here this morning! If it was, you've obviously got it sorted out quickly!

yea.. so called hacked... Forums are real easy to hack unless they are constantly updated. New patches and updates come out weekly and I just don't have to time to keep up with all of them :).

So yes we were hacked if you want to call it that.. I think I fixed the problem, I guess I'll find out in a couple days :).

Well, I only said hacked as it said hacked on the strange screen that popped up! All rather bizarre and a bit of a strange place to hack really, but I'm glad you got it sorted out quickly. :)

I mean I was technically hacked, but it sounds so bad and I hate giving credit to some 12 year old hacker for something so simple like taking advantage of a non-updated forum :)
