Hacking aftermath: Forums down again :-(

And yet another hole found, data destroyed, files damaged and the forums down again. I wish I'd be able to get my hands on this cowardly hacker freak... he'd suffer some real pain :-(

I'm not sure when (or if) things will be back up soon - I'll make one more attempt to save stuff tonight but I'm slowly getting tired of reinstallating the forums. And reconfiguring them... which really is a pain in the ass with vBulletin due to the immense amount of features... configuring those just takes too long.

Oh well, dark times for ADOM and JADE. So much time and energy lost...

  1. You should save a total backup right after you configure. That way if you have to reinstall, you can reconstitute the forums by doing a fresh install and then installing the backup. Saves you time and hassle.

  2. Basically yes. I just don't want to lose to much data and the DB was attacked, too. But for now the forums are back up once more.

  3. After seeing this I, too, have decided giving this skiddie a place in JADE is a bad idea.
