I think this was probably already posted here but, if so, it seems to have got lost in the great meltdown ...
For the record, it wasn't a meltdown. It was a hack by a banned douchebag former poster.
Actually, it depends on what aspect of the 'meltdown' you're referring to. Yes, the forum was repeatedly hacked, prompting a change of forum software. However, that hacking is NOT what caused 1,000s of attachments to be lost (pictures) or thousands of links to become unusable/broken... the links are broken due to the software change (in a way) and the pictures were lost due to a mistake by a system administrator in making/restoring backups. So, if blame's gotta be assigned, let's just do so accurately, that's all.
I stand corrected. However, the whole 'meltdown' was initiated by the hacker, who is still a douchebag.
Worse than a douchebag by far IMO... perhaps a colostomy bag?
