Administrators YCMaker Posted August 20, 2007 Administrators Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 It seems that there was some security breach on the forum around 9PM EST and all points on the forum were reset. Unfortunately there is no easy way to recover these points so for now I have run a script which calculates the number of points you have solely based on your posts/threads. If this number is lower than what you had before, please post here and things will be straightened out.I apologize to anyone who was severely traumatized by this incident, and I hope to restore things to the way they were before as I investigate how the error occurred, or whether it was the doing of someone else. At the very least it's good that it was something that could realistically be restored, like points.Thanks for your cooperation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators YCMaker Posted August 20, 2007 Author Administrators Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 I have a question, what's this going to do to everyone who had point trades going?If anyone lost points, post here and they will be restored. Also, I'm implementing a points-backup feature so that this doesn't happen again. I would have done it before but I honestly had no idea something like this was possible and didn't see it as a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaco Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 I'm not exactly sure if this had anything to do with it, but I just got an error from my computer saying something about Google-analytics instead of Google.And it said it was "possible, although unlikely" That someone was trying to intercept that connection. And I was told to contact the site Admin. So if that means anything to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
