I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I thought this was sufficient. It would have gone in the Halo 2 forum but that is no more. I think this fits community happenings.

I have been with the same clan for a little over a year now. It's the only clan I actually cared about being in. I recieved an invite to the clan after talking with the overlord here on Bungie. That clan is QsK, Quick Scope Kings. Now, if you clicked the link, you have seen what happened. Our website has been hacked, or as I see it, the community has been hijacked. Most of the people who post there used to post alot on the b.net forums, and still do. With Halo 3 just launched, things were really taking off for us.

This probably didn't need to be posted, but I'm just shocked right now.

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." - Albert Einstien

This is somewhat of an awkward post seeing as it doesn't have anything to do with b.net, but it does suck you were hacked. Hacks can be crippling. It destroyed a graphics forum I attend still, and it has happened many times to h2s.com. The best you can do is fix it and reset your passwords and maybe find some new protection software, or even go so far as to get a green hacker who can help you with security.

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

Well crap. I was going to make some crack about how it must be dark since it's only 3 am, but now you went all empathetic on me.

Seriously, that does suck. I would suggest trying to follow ultima's advice.

Jeeze, some people just suck. I hope you get everything fixed, man. Best of luck.

The only Twitter I follow. Except yours ;)
The Frozen Minority; Bungie's real underground. The oldest members, the deepest controversy, walking infamy.

I'm terribly sorry to see this. It's a pathetic turn when you realise how lowly and lame some members of The Halo Nation are. To hack and wage endless online vendetta's against other online people, who share your interests, truly is sad.

I hope your clan recovers or relocates or something. I have no idea how the net works - so I can't offer advice - but I know QSK has been a pillar of this community for a long time.

I have a few people I am going to ask about this. I have a feeling it was not done by anybody that I know of that has caused issues for other sites as well. This looks too sophisticated for anybody I know of to have done this. But you never know.

Thanks for everyone's concern, we've fixed the problem and should be back up by the end of the night. I spent a good part of the past 3 days trying to recover everything and piece together all that we lost. Now I'm gonna play some Halo.
