HACKED - Toyota Yaris Forums

Shroomster · 10-18-2008, 10:45 PM

WTF? we've been hacked.

*YarisBueller* · 10-18-2008, 10:49 PM

I dont know, I checked out that site and I cant see any reason for them to do this to us. im guessing just some punk asshole did this. even if they did whats the use, i'm so distraught right now that it doesn't really matter anymore. All we can do is rebuild.

Shroomster · 10-18-2008, 10:50 PM

nice to see ya active again 'boss' not so much under the circumstances but nice none the less, and you're right we'll just have to rebuild I'm pretty sure most everything was photbucket'd as far as pictures goes....

PETERPOOP · 10-18-2008, 10:52 PM

WOW. SO MUCH information lost........

I had to re-register....

ztrack157 · 10-18-2008, 10:53 PM

Had to be someone in the Japanese market. I'm suspecting Fit.

2006fronty · 10-18-2008, 10:53 PM

this sucks, I'm kind of skeptical that that BMW site actually did this. Some fucker is probably just trying to start problems between our forums.

PHXDEMON2 · 10-18-2008, 10:54 PM

This is bullshit my fucking account is gone

ztrack157 · 10-18-2008, 10:54 PM

We need a better back up incase this stuff happens again.

PetersRedYaris · 10-18-2008, 10:56 PM

That was really wierd seeing the site hacked. At least you recovered it quickly. Nice job...

On a positive note, all the political posts about the upcomign election are gone. Woo Hoo!

Shroomster · 10-18-2008, 10:56 PM

everyone just needs to stay calm unfortunately this might not have ever been planned but at least the admin was nice enough to have a backup....some sites just crash and go completely "White screen of death" thankfully YB had a backup....

BTW welcome back everyone.....

*YarisBueller* · 10-18-2008, 10:56 PM

yea, we have daily backups now.... sorry everyone, it should have been daily backups before but i got us a backup service that will do it for us now. setting up as we speak.

PETERPOOP · 10-18-2008, 10:56 PM

Yah seriously. Most updated backup info was over a year ago? Come on YW...

Don't worry, YW is a great community that will bounce back from this

Just rejoined as well. Glad you were able to get the site going.

On the bright side (and there is ALWAYS a bright side) now we get to add to the old threads we forgot to rant on when they were active.
