Somewhere between May 2nd and May 4th the forum was compromised. We are sorry this has happened and that we weren't able to stop it sooner. To make sure any trace of the hack is removed we currently in the process of reinstalling the forum server and restoring everything from a backup.

As far as we know the attacker was able to download a list of all users usernames, email addresses and passwords. The passwords were salted and hashed using MD5, but unfortunately this method of hashing is fairly easy to crack.

Assume your password has been compromised. If you used the same password on any other site please change them immediately. For this reason you will need to reset your password once the forum comes back online (unless you already did so in the past 1-2 days).

Unfortunately getting the forum back up will take a few hours as it takes some effort to reinstall and reconfigure everything, not to mention to take steps to prevent it from happening again.

Our apologies for the inconvinience.
