looks like modelwarship.co being hacked just being on forums are bare.

EDITED by Skipper: Hi again David.
I know and understand your being mad about it! The same has already happened here...
but please have some "temper" when writing your posts. Remember that this is open to all age modelers and some of them are still youngsters - and we don't want to scare them away, right?
That's why I edited your post. Nothing personal
:)

Thank you for your input!

David,
I am sorry to hear that. The amount of cyber-hacking is on the rise. Alot of it is pure machine based (scripts going from server to server). In the past 6 months I can't count the number of malicious scripts I have had to remove from the temporary directory. This ussually means there is a vulnerability in one of the scripts or in the way the server is setup that allows this stuff to get access to the server and potentially monitor activity, passwords, usernames, etc.

I hope Tim does daily backups.

Thanks for the head's up.

Jim

Rui, I think you edited it too much. What is left of his post makes absolutely no sense. Did someone get in and wipe out Modelwarships.com again? That has happened three times in the last year and a half. At one time I had something like 100 posts, then they started over I got up to 75, then once again. They seem to get into a lot of arguments over there and I wonder if some disgrutled ex-member keeps going in and messing with them.
