oh my god I am very sorry everyone, i forgot to post the link to the message and the actual post, fuck

anyway:

http://s10.invisionfree.com/Guns_Street_Team/index.php?showtopic=741&st=30

and here is the word:

This is Eric the admin from mygnrforum.com

Here's an update:

The mygnrforum.com indeed got hacked on June 23rd 2006. The hackers did mes up data. They used the feature to send an e-mail to some members mentionning the the Forum (not their computer) got hacked.

I do have a backup (wich is a couple of days old). Restoring a backup would normally be fast and simple with a small Forum. This is not the case with a big Forum like mygnrforum.com. Plus I've run into a few technical difficulties and have had to rely on the host wich takes 4-8 hours to answser/give help.

A few posts will be gone, a few members will have to re-register. No need to panic, I'll post all those details when the forum is back up.

In a few days, weeks, months, we'll simply look back at this as an "incident".

I do expect mygnrforum to be back online monday june 26th 2006.

This is an unfortunate incident. Computer software get vulnerable from time to time. Security exploits are getting more and more common.

I encourage webmasters from all Forums to be on the lookout for security exploits. Would be cool if Forum members from all Forums would keep an eye on security patches and notify the Webmasters should danger be near.

Thank you to everyone who has e-mailed me to show their support. This was appreciated.

I'll post another update when I have news.

PS. GunsGuy, could you please post to confirm my identity.

Eric
