......for those of you just tuning in...
someone out there apparently loves the site enough that they hacked into the message board yesterday, deleting the membership file and messing some other things up that caused a lot of problems. thanks to the technical expertise of tim rudy, we are back up and running just like we were. he regularly backs up the server that this message board is on, so all we had to do was go to the tape and restore it. however, if you have registered since monday, you will have to reregister.
NOTE TO THE HACKER-
i'm sure you're checking up on your work. now that we know we have a security threat, we are taking the appropriate steps. try it again and you'll be facing federal charges. can you say bubba?
we apologize for any inconviences...
