Ok, I know that I have not been able to keep in touch with everyone, the reasoing being is I am home and I do nto have internet. So here goes my two cents...
I back Tarsha in the belief that it was not one of our users. To me it seemed more like a default message the hacker leaves on sites that he hacks. Furthermore, in the basis of authorities, neither Tarsha or I have done so...If you think about it, sites get hacked everyday, thousands of them, and whereas hacking is against the law its not something that can be prevented. The only this us as owners can do is try to keep up with protective updates and purging of suspicious accounts.
DK will be teaching me how to backup the database myself so we will not have to fear paying $150 the next time this happens. I say this because I have been on this site since 2004, and I am certain we will be hacked again at some point. It is part of life when it comes to owning a site.
Thank you all for being concerned. I urge you to join the FB group so that we can get ahold of you because that was one of our bigger concerns this time was our inability to reach you all.
We will continue to keep you all updated as new developments arise. There are going to be possible changes to the forums at a later date. So everyone stay on, keep posting, and HACKERS YOU SHALL BURN!
