Okay in case you're wondering, no the forums not broken. We were attacked by some script kiddies who tried to damage the forum so its been restored from backup. This means any posts from the beginning of the month til now will have been lost. Measures are already in place to prevent it happening again and the IP's of those involved have been passed along to the relevant authorities. Sorry for the trouble this might cause, please bare with me whilst we attempt to harden the forum and repair any damage.

If you do spot anything that seems odd or receive an error, please PM or email me with the details.

Cheers and have a great New Years Eve

Haha, not quite. It looks like the damage was part of an exploit not previously patched, the user database wasn't compromised the damage was purely superficial. Its all sorted and cracked down now.
