I can't see any post after Jan 20th. I'm on vacation and haven't been on in a few days, but now that I'm trying I can't see anything past Jan 20th 2011.

We are investigating. Please refrain from posting for now. I can't access the admin areas to shut it down into maintenance mode....

OK,

Looks like we have restored the forums to the moment of failure without any loss of content.

Still not sure what happened. Still looking into that.

Let me know if you see anything odd...besides my posts. [smiley=disimulo.gif]

Indeed. My brain is now Jello.

This was an existential FUBAR. And our YaBB geek was AWOL. So...I had to use one of my wishes...

The forensic exam is complete. I know what happened. [smiley=lipsrsealed.gif]

The good news is that we have no worries. Systems are secure and no one was able to hack us.
