On getting it back up. I was starting to miss it lol. Flaming hackers. Annoying. Well done again!
Ye congratz on doing it so quickly
Yep, big thanks to
MAD, tomlegend, sierk and 8freak8 who i know all worked pretty hard contacting hosts and doing techie things!
Ditto^^
you missed hxf????? oh god. and mad took his time, they needed the back up off him coz he was the only one to have it.
why did it take you so long to upload the backup? you said you were uploading it for about 2 hours, it should only have taken 10 mins ;S
a tip; dont get hacked in the first place ;)
habboxforum wasn't hacked. habbox was.
[i think]:S
Oh yeah, someone slipped and deleted the forum LOL
ur a bit slow liam. both HXF and habbox was hacked. check the announcements.
lirl. if their security was tighter, nothing would have happened.

'Habbox.com was hacked by the same hacker.'
o. i thought something else happened.:rolleyes:
@above, that wasn't funny. don't try to be.
the forum was hacked after the db got deleted...
Technicians being the staff :PQuote:

I bet they were ;]
tbh i think its all a big conspiracy to vcover up that aliens viseted the hosters hq and zapped it and made hxf go down and habbox WIERD
were through the looking glass people
m8, it wasnt aliens. it was my rabbit m8, yh m8 init m8!!!!1
no it was aliens like the all conspiracies and the aliens they come to sierks house and abduct him and tell him to tell mad it was hacking
Well done them :rolleyes: All the money Habbox take they should have a backup server, then it wouldnt be a huge problem.
But yes they did get hacked, I dont see how you can delete a database without typing in a comand or pressing delete and the comfirming
Oh well, Its over now. I hope nobody died because of it going down.
When I was admin around 7 months ago the backups were about 800-900 mb. That was ages ago so I dread to think what the size is now...
Then it depends on the persons internet connection, if it is slowish at upload speeds then your going to have to wait a while for that size of file.
i refuse to praise them, a flaw in their own security led to waste in my vip,
refund, REFUND!!
if you have evidence i think you can
Wel,**** im so happy its back up :)
yeah so am i rockstar. Heres to the staff of Habbox Forum 4 getting it back up! *raises glass of bitter* *hiccup*
Nope actually sierk had it too. Your facts are never right :rolleyes:.
We had to wait for the hosting server tech to finish upgrading mysql and other changes to the server :).
lol - yeah thats what happened :rolleyes: (thats sarcasim btw ;))
No matter how tight security is on the server, someone else can be hacked. Its quite hard to manage a big forum with a big team of people contributing on it and keep them all safe from hackers etc. The hacker needs to be lucky just once. We have to be lucky all the time ;).
Nope. Support technicians.
Nope, they weren't. We don't need to lie.
When they upgraded the mysql software, the databases where all deleted. I am not sure why as I am not a techie. You would have to ask someone that knows quite a lot of servers and mysql etc.
Yeah. It takes like 3-4 hours to download/upload it on a broadband connection.
Thanks :8.
