Sorry guys, the forum has been attacked this morning.
The only way to get it working again was by restoring a data-base back-up made April 11th: a lot of topics and posts have been lost.
If you've registered after April 11th you'll have to register again.
To the hacker who caused this, I wish you'll have the runs for the rest of your %^$#@# life and I hope it'll end very soon >:(
That stinks, thanks for getting it up and working Brutuz.
Tried at about 4:30 am Eastern time this morning and could not log in. Death is to quick. I say we put the hacker in front of the entire forum for target practice!!
Sure am glad you got it back up.

Let's stone the ******* to death by trowing empty CO2 cartidges at him >:(
Was just this forum hacked/defaced or was the webhost under attack causing loss?

I'm pretty sure it was my x-wife >:( Go get her boys :D
i was on around 1am central time usa
the forum was real slow and i couldnt post but could preview my post
must have started around around that time,i thought i was my connection but had full bars
Why would anyone hack a airgun forum? I agree lets stone them with empty co2 cartridges >:( Maybe a face full of BBs from my friend the Drozd >:(
I'm just glad the forum is back online and we didn't loose to much information.
Good job Brutuz and also for getting it done in a very timely manner.
I noticed it about 5:30 am central time and sent packrat an eMail cause I could not find yours.
That was the question I asked, why this little airgun forum? Guess some scum just have nothing better to do. We will catch them one day and then it is curtains.

The up and coming hackers go after forums to hone their skills and then move on to bigger things.
Lucky Brutus had a backup that was not to old,damm I just hate hackers >:(
If they catch them (which is unlikely) they should be rigged upto a 15L cylinder of HPA regulated to dump its load in one trigger pull.
Rigging them up is the creative bit.
The hackers seem to have replaced my favourite 'Thumbs Up' smiley with a dodgey 'peck on the cheek' kiss smiley.... :(
Whats worse is all my posts now have Smileys 'getting it on'! Makes me look like I bat for the other team... :-* :-[ >:(
The question is:
Did you win the Nigerian lottery!? Or claim the $15,000 they have in a presidential account for you. Our records show you still have time to claim them ;D
