Well, i don't think the Forums are gonna mount a crusade to rescue the accounts.

Actually wait don't for the love of god do that. You'll kill us all!

It's not strictly speaking hacking
Whoever it was, Okiver or not, obviously guessed the questions. Not hacking

That's why I always falsify my email questions or make it something I've never posted about.

I wonder if some social engineering took place.

It was okiver who attacked those users, he PM'd me over steam.

But he hasn't been online for 14 days.

Is it just me or do the forums randomly drop requests now? I'm seeing various images occasionally just fail to load and sometimes even the entire page not loading (rarely).

i saw this once on my iPod, refreshed because i thought it was a bug and all was fine.
BTW this was the rc car thread for reference.

Genius Badspot deserves the nobell peace prize for this
