So yeah about that virus, I guess it's time I confessed....

[Absent axel]

What about closing the forums if this happened?

 

[Tenyas]

Nyeh... forum wipe. I don't think people would be happy but, it might be necessary if this keeps up. D:

 

[Bebop Blues]

I don't anything about that, but they'll proably end up doing a purge.

 

[Absent axel]

What about temporaily closing the forums so they can prevent people from the virus in the first place? WOuldnt mods close it at first sight if a virus was going around?

 

[Bebop Blues]

I don't know. The mods may have been trying to care of it without causing an uproar.

 

[Apostle]

My comp never alerted me or detected any virus

could I still have gotten it?

 

[Absent axel]

But its still a virus. Can't they just prevent people from entering so they dont get affected?

It doesnt hurt to do a simple scan on your PC, then you'll know for sure.

I don't know. Ask a mod or an Admin.

just goes to show that some of the people that work for this site are idiots. and you all wonder why we get upset at some of the mods and staff and such.

this is pretty unbelievable guys.

so is this fixed now or not?

Woah, woah, woah.

You can't ban Joe, it doesnt feel right D=

You probably wouldnt say that if your bank account got wiped out.

 

[divinerosekeeper]

Hm. I never had an alert on my desktop, but on my desktop I keep my account on tren_Z skin.
This is the computer I use for pretty much everything.
Right now I'm doing a scan and am clearning my history and cookies.

Should I be alright on this computer?

As for my laptop I used the KH Lite skin and it got alerted of a virus and that's been doing scans and whatnot. I'm not too worried about that one, it's old, I hardly use it and has no vital info on it.

Woah, woah, woah.

Before this, I would have said the same thing.

But now Joe is just a completely different person to me.

 

[Teiku 5]

so i'm doing a norton scan and as usual a tracking cookie or two came up.....

but so did a high-level "PasswordRevealer". i'm gonna be a little upset if this comes back to get me.

can i ask what the site will be doing to prevent anything like this in the future? is it possible for the server to put up some kind of anti-virus so that it's members don't get hurt again.

 

[Deleted member 36435]

We're probably going to implement some system where all future posts have to be approved by an admin or moderator before they get published.

For all of you who got screwed big time by the virus, press in dire situations:

Nooooooooooooooo!

bad news guys, the forum's cache basically reset itself a few hours ago, meaning we may not be able to go back and find that image to get rid of the virus. we might could be stuck with it forever.


i'm sorry guys, but let's remember that this is hokage's fault. thanks to shamdeo though, he won't pull another stunt like this ever again.

Unless he changes his IP address and comes back.

Seriously though, what the fuck? Don't drop the soap, asshole.

This shit makes me glad that I'm on a Mac :|

People like Hokage make me sick.
