if it wasn't hacked then why is this thread called 2nd CTW Forum Hack??

 

has someone been silly and accidently deleted the db?

 

It wasn't hacked, James has stated this already.

to gain access to anything computer related via a password or whatever means would be considered a hack unless someone has made a general mistake here.

seems like we're going round in circles here.

 

it's only a gameshow. :signumface:

So to sum up.

 

a) Someone gained access to the admin password (by whatever means).

The forums were deleted.

c) The forums were then restored to the latest available backup.

d) New passwords were suggested.

e) There have been behind the scenes threats.

f) The "attacker" is unknown, for the moment.

So to sum up the summary:

 

a) everyone's making far too much of a fuss about this and it's positively yawn-inducing to anyone outside, erm, about four people.

 

now can we get back to normality please. i'm missing the usual threads about people's miserable lives and jobs

Leave then.

Guys, its in hand. There is now only 1 admin login/password and the password is much longer.

 

Myself and Bukey are looking through various other logs as well.

 

Its not top priority to 'find the hacker', however its a priority to try and ensure this doesnt happen again too much in the future.

hush, kevin. you've had your whinging time. move on.
