who killed .org ??

was it you Broon

Apparently it has been hacked.

The same person who killed xpower?

Strange that both of the big general forums are down.

The Xpower forums run from the same servers as .ORG, Looking more like a server failure than a hack,
If it was hacked should have been restored from backup by now, Really supprised that it is still down though.

SIMON!
Have you been a naughty boy? :nonod:

Only joking.:lol:

These people infuriate and baffle me! How twisted do you have to be to do this sort of thing?

Been waiting for that comment Hoping boredom might strick some of the .Org'ers and they'll wander over for a look.

Sorry :whistle: I hate being predictable. :rant:

Thinking about it, it is a good Hack target as it has a big userbase and running on old software, somebody will pay good money for all those account details and email address from the site

I'd say for a least 60% of the users, having their username, email and password, gets you access to all the sites they visit, Paypal and ebay included, plus access to their webmail account.

The other 40% of people will have used different password for each site and will be safe.

Unfortunate but we have everything here for the MG F/TF owners, friendly forum, experts regularly online and a how to section to rival any site.

so if you're searching google to find out

why is mg-rover.org offline look here for all your needs

I reckon it was an MGF owner' revenge for Phil's (phil-hex) comment on the F compared to a TF
