According to the moderator logs, that I've just read through, it was a hacker who had gotten access to the banning pages prior to his own banishment. When we banned him, he got into there and unbanned himself, followed by unbanning all banned members, even members who shouldn't have been unbanned at all.

It's caused quite a bit of chaos, but it's not a false alarm. The issue is being fixed, however, and soon everything will return to normal. If people starts getting banned again for no reason, LOG OFF!


We will work as much as possible on fixing this, however, Steet is the only one who can do a permanent fix.

Thanks for your patience; the issue is being worked into.

The issue has been solved now. The admin pages have been updated and should now be more secure. (according to Steet)

If the problem appears again, and you can't send a PM to moderators because of it, send me a detailed e-mail, explaining the problem ([email protected]) and I will forward it.

Or send it directly to steet; whichever you prefer =P
