Not everyone is perfect, not many sites are perfect (apparently Google is since they challenged hackers to break their codes)...
That's not really relevant here. The USBs were being used to distribute a copy of the database code that the hackers had already accessed through site vulnerabilities.I had an account here for some time, never really used it, but I'm here none the less. I hope our beloved site is back up an running soon (and yes I know there is ETA on it yet).
For the future NEVER plug in and unknown USB into a computer that is A) connected to the net B) has files you want to keep safe. The simplest hack is that of leaving a USB laying around, and then someone will pick it, and infect thier computer.
I fear Google. I really do. They're going in with their own OS, trying to make the computing world their own. Plus, they are sending out all these physical world torpedoes...I mean self driving cars. And trying for all so much more. What's next? Google ICBM's???

- raises his fluffy paw - I hope everything will get fixed soon.
lol I'm doing the same thing. Even though I know its going to be the same result.How bad is it that I'm refreshing the page every few minutes and still feeling that sense of loss knowing the site's still down?

So, whomever did this, spent like, $35 for ten of those credit card USB drives....

I think I might use this account anyways, just in case my simpleton brain cannot comprehend the letter Q or something.
Still sucks about what's happening here too. I uploaded about 5+ submissions that I need to reupload, but that's sort of my fault as well. I need to stop uploading in short spurts and keep to an even schedule.
The only personal benefit I could ever find here is the fact that it's going to be dead/finals week, and I won't get distracted I guess. Actually, in retrospect, I'll be checking this forum constantly to see if a possible ETA has been established yet.
Anyways, I hope that the people at FA can get this situation straightened out, I miss looking at all of your cool artwork.
I honestly should be asleep by now, it's 11:07 P.M. in my timezone, haha. But hey, I'd rather be here! Better than any dream I might have (of course if it's not lucid)indeed the sooner the ETA is annouced the better
i miss looking at the creativity of my fellow watchers
guess still then we are all stuck in Forum Limbo
*sighs* i guess i should stop stalling and at least get these dishes washed
Sadly this hack has not just hit Furaffinity. A lot of sites are reporting that the ImageMagic app has made them vunerable and they have been damaged.
I can also sympathies with the admins here re the backups. Backup tech has not progressed at the same speed as data storage.. and the hardware and software needed to run a constant transactional based backup is not cheap.

Yea...like LifeBoat.OMG and FurryBunker.SAF ;PThere are websites OTHER THAN FA!?!?!?![]()
No, this is very different. A DDoS only keeps people from accessing the server that hosts the website.so this is a sorta like a DDOS attack ?
i hated when that happen to steam at around the Xmas sale
