The site was hacked by someone yesterday. The staff has fixed it, and most, if not all, deleted threads have been restored.

To be clear: The "site" wasn't hacked, a user's account was hacked.

I guess some could argue that this means the site was hacked, but the 3rd party person didn't have access to very much stuff, data, etc. outside of that one limited account, so the other 99.9% of the site was fully secure and inaccessible.

Please continue all related discussions in this main thread:
