forum hacked - metulburr - Nov-23-2016
The forum was hacked recently. We are working on the back door fix. Until then if the forums go down again, we have IRC to communicate through. Also we had to reinstate an older snapshot which may cause some confusion as to missing accounts/post/threads since this snapshot was taken 5 days ago.
All users including mods and admins are advised to change their password.

automate! daily snapshots!
RE: forum hacked - metulburr - Nov-23-2016
backups with digital ocean seem to only allow automation of weekly backups. Although free to manually make snapshots as much as you want.

What did this hack entail? All posts were deleted? Do you know whose account specifically was compromised? etc.
RE: forum hacked - metulburr - Nov-23-2016
Im not sure exactly. But the snapshot after the hack was 3GB less than normal. I have no idea. Password changes are just in case.

if there is a manual way, then automate around that.

Is this really a hack or could it just be MySQL that went belly up and lost data?
