I already said that. Lots of chunks of information like edit your forums is still gone, though.

He probably already hacked the backup site! Grrrr! That's why I can't back it up!

It's because the admin panel is disabled.

My site isn't hacked because I could get in there for the backup link we need to track his IP down and then give it to the Internet Provider Staff and delete and do things... etc.

Guys, please read this:

Idol chatting in this thread is not helping. There might or might not be a hacker because AS I SAID it is unclear for now but we have clear proof that it is a hacker for those who disagree. Please stop posting about how bad the hacker is and only post if you have things relevant to the topic.

I agree. THis is a global forumotion problem. If we shut it down, he can't hit us unless he boot's it back up, which you need an admin name and pass for. Shut the forum's down and forget about it.

How are you suupose to shut down a forum? I have a forum and I don't know how! >.<

**Retired Staff** Posts : 5616 Registration date : 2008-01-28

Don't shut the forums down yet. Please READ MY NOTE on the last page or don't post here, please.

I believe for CPP's safety, you could "close" (put in mantenience or under construction) the forums for a while.

Forum Legend Posts : 6175 Registration date : 2008-02-23

If we close the forum's HP, the hacker wont be able to hit us. We should jsut close the forum's and ride it out.
