The web sites that went along with it have also been taken down.


I added as much security as I could without raising questions from users about what

was being sent to the website and it still has been hacked by some 13 year old kids with

nothing better to do.


At last count before the database was completly wrecked by the hacker(s)

Over 25k kills were recorded.


167 Days of population were recorded with a high population reading of 463 as of last week.

Well over 15k different characters were seen


The daily average was about 900 kills a day with about 350 Plug-in users.


Thanks for the fun. I enjoyed working on this project and hate to see it go out like this,

but I just don't have the time to recover from what happened.


Cheers

Sorry to hear.


Vogue was like the PK hunter plugin correct? I'm working on a similar plugin that I hope to have out within a month or so.

not because our sight is superior or because we are taller than they, but because they raise us up and their
great stature adds to ours

its horrible to see peoples hard work, ruined by a few kids. Especially when it's a free service to the community.

Want the sad part?


Even money says it was someone from the AC community that did it, too.

was it Elgar?

I'm just kidding of course. All this talk about Elgar and a rather large chip.. *shrug*

It was a Darktide player from either present or disgruntal past.


No one will ever know, and personal I don't care.

For entertaiment purposes, you can check out the 50+ post on the subject somewhere in the first 5 pages of the VNDT forums. This was pretty much the last straw on a very old dead game.


I will be looking for someone to take over my remaining plug-in's that are used by large number

of white server populations when I get a chance to post on it. 7-years gone, time to move on.

Sucks, but on the other hand. "What goes around, comes around."


When PKhunter was popular, you did similar if not the same thing these guys did to you.
