Last night, there has been an idiot, who kept trying to fuck everything up here. Therefore, we're forced to temporarily turn off User Registrations. I don't know much about the person, but what's for sure is, he seems to study at the Game Development course at NHTV in Breda, Netherlands, and he may possibly life somewhere in the Dutch province of Zeeland, and hires a study room in the same city he's studying. From what I've heard is, his main goal was to steal your Password hashes, and to kill the site altogether. Before you change your Passwords, we can confirm he didn't get the chance to inject any sort of Code yet, thanks to our monitoring crew being to fast for him. Either that, or he simply didn't know how to do it here, in any case, I've been asleep at the time. His Accounts were "Weegee", "potator", and "Gumba", registered with different IP Addresses and Email Addresses, but in each case, he kept trying. So just because of him, we had to disable User Registrations, until we make it impossible for him to fool around here. |

SGC Yellow | Have you backed up everything? You should probably warn the other forums about this fucker he most likely will try to attack them as well. |

Yes, I'm creating multiple Backups daily. I don't know who that person is, but he/she doesn't seem to touch the Hack Store, nor the Wiki, at least. |

Arctus 64 | I think if this happens again, we should try using the hack store's status update feature to be able to communicate while it is being fixed. |

SGC Yellow | Anyway where did you get the information about what he was trying to do? I would like to see. |

I got informed by my brother, I saw it happening myself, I saw it in the Server Logs, etc. Also, Registrations are still disabled, because we still need to fix some more Files. The person who fucks everything up knows exactly what can be done if we don't fix them all, which is why I can't re-enable Registrations yet. However, thanks to Pablo, another Bug was resolved, so it's save enough to have at least the Site back Online. |

Too bad you can't kick people in the balls on the internet. :/ Actually I want to torture him in a small cage full of nails for five days and, nights and, he wouldn't be able to lie down or, have any food or, water. |

Well, this is bad. Changed my password to something longer and more difficult to guess, hope it works out. |

it's quite an evil measurement. Just to be sure, you're certain this will only affect him, right? |

MKGirlism | It'll affect anyone who attempts to Exploit, just targeting a single person would rather be hard. |

As a security measurement, I disabled User Registrations again, and I've temporarily downgraded all Moderators and Administrators to regular Members. This war seems to not be over yet. |

LeonisaTrotsky | (Tongue-in-cheek) Just track him down and have him assassinated or something. Problem solved. |

ニンテンドウ64 | First, let me get things straight. So some guy out of nowhere decides he was going to take everyones passwords, and he got busted, and registrations are temporaily disabled, and we can't ban him??? Even with the killer technology today? Cant we find his Mac adress and block it or something? |

No, they took Password hashes, no actual Passwords. Banning MAC Addresses aren't as simple as they used to be, since people nowadays always have multiple Internet Devices, and if not, they can still use a VPS (or any other kind of Remote Server). Besides, PHP can't detect MAC Addresses, unless the Computer in question is in the same Local Network as this Server. |

LeonisaTrotsky | What? This is was some university student studying video game development (he likely thinks hacking is stealing or whatever). |

From where was this happening? Somewhere in the Middle East? Read the TS more properly, the Country + City is clearly mentioned there... |
