If that happens that would be bad mostly for me. I have over 5000 posts.
I just became Libby. too.. sad face :(

i'd be very surprised if a site that size didn't have a backup of some sort. they may not run it every day or even weekly but i suspect that they won't lose more than a fortnight of posts.

I just hope they don't bring any trolls..

Oh, yeah...me too...

Looks like everything is OK now.

Good night everyone!

Uh-oh!

Looks like Warseer's been hacked again!

Thanks to Kroothawk for the head's up...

What, again?

Really?

So, warsser is unsafe? Great. Just to be sure, we should be safe, right? They cant hack three servers right?



Right?

Just went to Warseer and got some alert from my browser.
Windows users should avoid Warseer.

As if we needed another reason to avoid Warseer...

No, it hasn't.

For some reason Google decided to mark it as unsafe again, even though it's been a week since the attack.

Win.

Seems like they are a funny bunch at google, marking websites as unsafe for no obvious reason just because they feel like it

when it comes back online, it will henceforth be known as: HakkaHakka.

Apparently they did have a reason. The diagnostic page now says that they found suspicious content again today.

...but they still haven't bothered to update the note saying when the diagnostic page was last updated.

only 3 posts to completely turn your story around, aye hacker?

I guess that we'll have to settle for that rather than "Sorry!"

Well, the google software isn't reknown to take these things personally

At least it was up just long enough for people to get TK pics & info up...

To be clear, what exactly is the point of hacking warseer like this? Other than for the sake of causing misery, that is.

What other reason is there to hack a website?

Karmic retribution for the "nazi mods" ?

yeah, that does sound like a reason

Check out the stock markets, Google buys out GW!

Look out for the new and improved Chrome Marines, the lost chapter returns to save the Imperium of Man!

Because this obviously makes sense here..

The problem is everyone is trusting Google for virus/malware information...there is the fail.
I won't believe anything untill Norton, Trend Micro and Sophos Anti Virus have added the site to their 'Unsafe Site List'.
I just visted the site on Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox (with no-script, ad-block plus turned on) and it seemed normal...normal for Warseer that is

Right?

It is possible to hack multiple servers but you would have to locate each server and than deal with the firewalls.

Not to mention the Adeptus Dakka guardians who protect us from the evil internet spirits, praise their souls.

And you're crapping on people for using Google?

Yep, exactly
That's why I also said Trend Micro, Sophos and Firefox.

EDIT: My older brother works at Sophos Sydeny Lab, I've given him the Warseer URL and he's going to look at it tomorrow.

rather get viruses from warseer than listen/talk to most of the inbreds on there to be honest
