we got hacked, and we got hacked bad.
the database of all the posts is gone, empty, zero.
betty has a backup at work from a few months ago, which we’ll eventually put back up as a searchable database, and in the meantime, we’re going to use the opportunity to change the software for the forum to vBulletin, which updates its software more often (which makes it more impermeable to hackers).
betty has been struggling to fix what she could, find out what they did, & all with a migraine. she rocks. we had hoped there was more left. the user list remains, and ironically, the private messages. but everything else is gone.
i will put up a skeleton of the former boards so that people can post, and gather, while we get the new version ready – hopefully by tonight.
