Title: Forum problems
Post by: Piotr on January 24, 2012, 08:16:15 AM
Sorry about that. One of the other websites which are hosted by my provider got compromised and admins took the whole account down (yes, lame) to stop the spam scripts. We should be all right now.

Soooo... If it was compromised, do we need to worry about changing passwords?

Welcome back everyone!

Our forum was most probably not compromised, it was another site of mine running on old version of Joomla.

Glad to have the forum back.  I actually had to do work at work yesterday.

Guys, just to be perfectly clear, they cannot kill the forum. They can cripple iMtG in several ways, but the forum is safe. In the worst case scenario we will move the server to one of the 'free' countries, like Russia :P
I tested it already during the recent downtime, I know how to move now ;)
Remember that you can access Gathering from any web browser, iMtG is not required http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?theme=1 (http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?theme=1)
