What's up with the Official Adult Swim board? I just went over there and it's locked down to read-only and it looks like this may have happened in the last hour. If anyone knows what brought this on, do tell (or just rant at them - that's always helpful if you're having a bad day if nothing else ;) ) :sweat:

They've been down for hours actually. From what I heard they got hacked, some user accounts and possibly a mod one, I guess they are working on it but I don't think they have any idea when they'll be back up.

EDIT: Also, I heard the hacker told the admins there was a security glitch and they didn't act on it, so he took advantage of it.

Oh brother. I hope they can get that back up soon. I'm also wondering where everyone is off to in the mean time, because it sure isn't here :shrug: .

"Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore"?

:p

Honestly, people who hack don't need any reason at all to do it, in my experience .

Hah, I think most of them are probably in AIM chats, or maybe they went to bed early. *shrugs*

1. To ruin the fun?
2. I've lurked here for a looong time (even before I set up an account), I just rarely post. =P

Nice sig btw. Though 2008? First DVD comes out in '07.

Yeah.
But seems pointless to hack it though.

It was probably some crazed InuYasha fan wanting to "get back at adult swim for making fun of him"

Well the board went back up this afternoon, so it is getting back to normal. That said, it seems if you have a Adult Swim account you should change your password so that is something to keep in mind. Personally, it took me almost 30 minutes to figure out where to change the darn password was but after someone told me where to look I had it changed in 5 minutes :sweat:

edit: nevermind, just go to http://fancollective.adultswim.com/Community/memberservices/regwall/Account and you can change your password there.
