    [WTF] WOW - Copiertalk.com got hijacked

    I don't go to this site often, but it appears it's been hacked. Here is a statement from the new "home" page: "Not your fault you're born and you're a victim of hacker but your fault to die and you still victim".
    It's in Arabic, then translated by Google.
    I hope that CTN is well protected.

      Copiertalk is one of my default browser windows, but I sure couldn't make anything of the Arabic without Google Translate. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          Nah... I can't translate the copytalk hacked web page ?
          It just translates to broken english wording with no real comprehension ?

          Sombody else may have better luck ?

              Google translated the whole page for me. Sounded like a rambling maniac, dunno if that was their aim, probably.

                  To any members: It's back up. According to Lost, it was a relatively minor operation to fix it. No personal information was ever at risk of exposure. =^..^=

                          There is an easy way to find out - take a guess.

                                  Interesting if CTN went off line, say in the event of Earthquake War, EMP exchange.
                                  The possibility had me thinking.
                                  How would the forum all meet up again if CTN went out ?
                                  Everyone would be scatter random.

                                  Maybe we could plan ahead an agree to meet at XYZ.com ?
                                  Maybe we could develop a simple buddy network an link every second person to the next one via email,Phone or snail mail?
                                  You'll only ever need to communicate with two other people.


                                  just a thought....

                                      Well, I suppose a major site should have a pretty good defense for that sort of thing, and as Facebook is kind of a juggernaut right now maybe that? I do have a Facebook account although I haven't used it in a few years. Mainly because I am as boring as grass growing.
                                      It's a shame that IRC and P2P have been abused by dummies as that might work as well.
                                      Still, based on what happened after CTN got hacked back in the day, Aneurysm is a freaking genius. So that may be less of a problem than you think.
