Hack warning

[Supreme Cmdr]

In another bit of warning. I've alerted the FBI last night about a potential site hack. I received this headsup from the folks at Relic yesterday. In fact, that idiot posting as HOMEWORLD USER, actually used the Relic's admin's email when he registered, so I ended up booting the wrong person. I'm gonna close registeration for a few days until my ISP finishes their monitoring tools. I'm determined to catch this ******* if he makes a move on this site.

If you haven't revisited the Relic boards in the past day, an AOL h4x0r

kiddie got in through a loophole and made himself administrator, booting out

the previous admin. The homeworld community has been busy flaming his ass

off for the past day, but from reliable sources, his next target will be the

BC3K boards. I thought I would warn you in advance, unless he is in your

boards already, to give you a better chance to catch the wanker. He goes by

AmazingSkill (At least that was the alternate alias he used when breaking

into the Relic boards).

If you want to see the original of the thread where he declares his intent

to target the B3KAD boards next, go here:

And btw, the site was down today because I was doing a massive backup and installing some security tools. So, the site being down today, had nothing to do with this hacker. I have been putting off moving this site for over month now and just need to get it done. So, now I have it backed up, I can have it installed on the other ISP and then down this one. So, expect the site to be up/down at random and don't send me emails or ICS about it please.

Thanks

Thanks for posting the address for the original thread on the Relic Boards SC, it gave me some great laughs. Specifically the person who said the following about the hacker:

Doesn't all this make you want to go over there and post "I'm rubber, you're glue..."

It is sorry a**** like AS that make a bad name for the Internet. With Spring break upon us, I guess that there are a lot of children out there that do not have anything better to do. Good luck Derek on you trace, I'll set one up too [This message has been edited by Maxamillian (edited 04-23-2000).]
