It got bombed by a hacker or religious extremist, not sure which form of low-life idiot it was for sure, but those are the leading candidates as of now. Piston says it will take awhile, the scum-bag nailed the site. Hackers should be castrated! Oops, how silly of me, we all know they are balls-less pieces of amoeba poop that have to hide their pathetic no-account identities below the dust guards of computer keyboards, the scummy little bastards!

I know in this modern day the media has abused the hacker name till it signifies something other that what it really is but I still take offense to the idea that people believe hacking is a bad thing. Breaknig into computer systems, defacing web sites, and numerous other criminal activities are the product of script kiddies and they are refered to as "crackers" much like a safe cracker.

On the other hand the proper use of hacker is to refer to a person who programs computers for fun and enjoyment or a professional programmer that often times fixes complicated computers systems with quick pieces of code(the hack). A hacker is closer to someone who uses a piece of pipe to fix a busted hose on the side of the road, than a person who would vandalize or steal your truck.

I had to re-read this twice. I though for sure you were talking about the people who abuse sawzalls

I'm kidding, really just kidding, just trying to lighten things up a bit.

Don't take my ranting too seriously guys, it was meant to get a point across in a humorous manner. Here is the latest from Piston.

Quote:

The server was comprimised and and a DOS attack script setup. This attacks other servers on the network. The network admin unplugs any machine found doing this. We lost everything within about 10 minutes!!!! It will take days to rebuild all 65 accounts, including myoldtruck.com

Hacker or cracker, whoever did it is piece of sh*t in my opinion.

After I reread my post I could see it seemed a bit ill-tempered. My intention was not to anger people just show them another point of view.
