I sent email to Subsim at 06:15 this morning... they haven't fixed it yet. Btw, how do you notify a 'bad post' without opening one of the rogue posts??

I sent a Red Alert at 9:30 PM PDT. Never seen an attack this bad before, and it is spreading to other forum sections now.

That was the worst one I have ever seen ... in a foreign language I couldn't read, but you could tell it was with hate and forethought.

Great job fixer uppers, but it was just GT ... hey were all spam anyway :D

It had also spread into the SH3 mods, the new members introduction one, and a couple of others I saw before I went to bed.

It was so intensive and vast and painstakingly done that I wonder if the hackers have developed a way to do it ahead of time and then just go click to include it on your web site ... it even looked like it had it's own signature of names.

You know like the camera software that you can just click with a mouse and the photo is B&W or becomes like an artist portrait?

Should be a way to see if others have had the same intrusion, uh? :yep:

I try to check and see if other popular forums are being hit at the same time when we are here, but for the most part it doesn't seem like people publicize these things reliably
