Dammit, someone hacked our front page last night, or early this morning. I've emailed the folks at the hosting company to have them restore the index file from backup. Grrrrrr.

How do they do that? And what info was taken? I am not computer tech savvy at all!

To be honest, I'm almost flattered that our tiny little corner of the interweb attracted enough attention for someone to bother hacking it.

The supprt people at the webhost said it looks they hacked the Wordpress theme, so I'll have to reinstall it when I get home today. No idea how they got in.

If you don't remind me from time to time, I forget that we have a front page...

Don't feel bad, I probably haven't seen our front page in six months.

I guess that explains why the front page looks so bizarre, and why I had to get here from the link on FB.

For a bit I thought I was losing my mind. Well, maybe I am, but at least this isn't confirmation.

Well for a while today there was a whole lotta nothing to look at. I've got it back up and running, but our previous theme is corrupted, so I've had to swap it, so I have lots of editing to do now. The asshole that hacked it also removed the previous users, luckily I was able to go into the user database and edit his user to my own, and then regain control. This sucks. Now I've got to recreate the users that JH and others used to post their stories.

Ugh. I don't even know what you're saying but it sounds yucky.

I've also got to recreate the links on the page that point to here and chat.

Pointy-toed shin kicks and stiletto heel toe stomps to the hacker(s).

I just wanna say, I have no evidence, but I'd like to blame some jerk from Boston College, that paid off some jerk from MIT, to do the breaking and entering.

Also you can click where it says "Home" at the top, next to "Board index".

I don't use the front page. I don't use the front door, either.

Thanks Chris. We all owe you.

A fantastic job! It looks great.

Damn, Chris, that looks pretty good! I may have to go look at it once in a while!

Thanks, but I don't do much. Contributions from JH and MHT during basketball season help alot with the men and women. Anyone who would like to add a voice, let me know. Football really needs a contributor.
