Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Ugh. For some reason, I am now unable to log on to the boards an ENWorld. I think this may be because I changed my password since December. And the password retrieval function doesn't seem to be working :(.

I hate to add to the burden of those who are most likely already swamped fixing things, but does anyone know if the password retrieval facility is broken for everyone, of if it is just me that is having problems?
 

Echohawk

Never mind. After a lot of digging, I eventually managed to find the password I was using in December last year.

But the password retrieval system still seems to be broken, at least for me.

I'm sure Morrus and Co. have already been made intimitely aware of what they should have been doing during these past months. :p I think you'll be seeing weekly backups being made from here on out, which means it was an educational process. 5 months of posts lost is a small price to pay for proper backups from here on out. You might not think it was a small price... but what if this db corruption hadn't happened until, say, a year from now? 17 months of posts lost... The problem was probably going to happen eventually anyway, and it's good that it happened sooner rather than later.

I've jumped over there to check, and the place is already buzzing with activity. New threads all over the place. Good to see. In fact, I'd forgotten how CROWDED that place is! Tons of people everywhere! It boggles the mind that someplace can start as small and humble as Nutkinland and grow to have such a tremendous number of members. And Eric Noah's site did start small, in the beginning...
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways, it's still rock and roll to me.

You can talk all you want about theory, craft, or whatever. But in the end, it's still just new ways of looking at people playing make-believe and having a good time with their friends. Intellectualize or analyze all you want, but we've been playing the same game since we were 2 years old. We just have shinier books, spend more money, and use bigger words now.

Besides, why the fuck is Morrus thanking Michael Morris AND Twin Rose when it was Twin Rose who fucked shit up in the first place? Hey Morrus :fu2:
Hi Scut!

You hang on to that bitterness, you crazy guy, you.

It wasn't Scut. I won't say who it was but it wasn't Scut.

Let me address this directly. Since you want to remain anonymous I will respect that. How Circvs Maximvs got started was unfortunate. Yelling for it to be destroyed just adds to the yelling in the room. Just quiet down, let tensions relax.  If we don't severe all ties but instead strengthen them then CM might go away because it is redundant - but it would not be "shut down" as you propose but merged into either NTL or NKL administrators on both sides willing. But as long as there is a fued the forum isn't redundant - it very much has a purpose by keeping the more angry kids from shitting in each other's sandboxes.

I really like having this website all about RPG's. One more off topic forum is just not necessary, please do not merge them.

Let's get back on topic. Discussion about CM and its history and future will just ruin a perfectly good thread. Too many strong emotions in some people.

Everything worked out for the best. Let's move on.
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways, it's still rock and roll to me.

We have absolutly no intention of adding any additional off-topic forums of any kind. Nutkinland is all about gaming, and thats the way we like it.

Well, I was more talking about Nothingland, than Nutkinland..  Maybe we should have a Circusland - all the mods can have clown avatars!!.

You're cool.  Even a diehard enemy of the place (no, I'm not Mythbuster, either :p ) is not going to hold you liking the place against you.  You're cool.  :D
