Just wondering did you ever find out who hacked the old site?

I'm just asking as there is an interesting post on the "other" forum about another independent site being hacked by a member on the "other" forum...

It was a virus via tapatalk from what Rusty said, just read what's been put on the "other forum" seems so strange a member set up their own site and members suddenly getting their pm's stopped, ooh sounds so familiar then the site dissapearing, they are so scared of competition Sad

I doubt they'd go that far, would they? Or if they even could.

I'm really glad I left that forum though tbh. The way they treat some of their members is shocking.

It is diabolical how they treat members, Sad, too much of a clique that forum, if your face dont fit.

I want to hope that people wouldn't actually stoop so low over a fish forum >.<

....But it wouldn't surprise me either.

Read the posts mentioned above. All seems very familiar. They treat members like scum on there.

And shock horror that Jpeterson was involved.

Would kind of like to know who the "other forum" is, as well... I frequent a couple others. I rarely post there, as I see a lot of unfavorable opinions to newbies...

I managed to find the info though. Wow that site is worth a lot, on that data I would reckon our old site was probably worth atleast $1000
