Such a shame to hear about the other forum, I guess the hackers got what they wanted Sad.

Glad we've still managed to stay open Smile

Sorry to hear about what happened. Might have been coinsidence, but I started getting alerts from my Microsft Security Essential anti-virus a few weeks ago when entering the old forum site, which changed to a trojan alert earlier this week.

Fingers crossed this site stays safe!

I wonder why Microsoft Security Essential didn't pick it up on my computer?

I say we just show the prats that they didn't get what they wanted, and just make this forum as good as the last.

It sure is a shame. I'm sorry to hear things had got this bad.
Hopefully the old files may some what be able to be saved.
However hopefully we all stick together so the forum will never be lost.

I'm alright, took a day off the forum to clear my head and get all calmed down.

Now i'm just a bit "faecal matter happens", and will carry on as normal. As star says, this isn't the first time we've been knocked back.

Thats what happens when you're a good site ;P

I don't blame you, it's nice to have a bit of break before getting down to something, I too have just had to have a break however now feel like i am cracking down well.

Do you know where the attack had come from?
I'm sorry to hear that once again you had a problem, you sure have had it hard but you keep on pushing by

As you said you expect it if your a good site Smile

Well I only own this domain for another 39 days, meaning we could rename this site to the Phoenix Fish Forum.

I think its a good name, funny too.

Well whoever targeted us to destroy the forum, might be waiting for it to start up again, it might be worth a name chance to throw them off for a while.

Sounds a plan Razz

How much will a new domain cost Rusty, if you don't mind me asking? Some of us might be able to chip in?

£15 for 2 years.. which is a whole £3 more expensive than 1 month of the old forum....

Yeah, go figure.

Phoenix Fish Forum, you can't keep a good fish down.

Logo could have a phoenixified Betta Splendens, Maybe a job for Flute, lol, or I could try to stylise one like the current logo as done by Wills.

I'd be more than happy to do a banner thing for the site Smile
Rusty, I'll message you about it a bit, see what kind of ideas you'd want.

Hey Anthony Smile glad you found us again. The reason why you cant log on with your name from the other forum is because you were never on this one, you would need to set up a new account, which you have Smile Smile
