Site update: Shaky future

Hackers are the bane of the internet. I just spent 5 hours unfudging the code for the site/forums. These hackers didn't destroy, they added entire sites with in the WRG site which of course were porrnn. This violated the revenue sources content policies so now the revenue stream is suspended. I've removed the offending code but now it's up for review. The site was almost breaking even, if the suspension stands the future of the site is in peril. 
ugh

Well now we can't have that happen. I still have 500,000 more photos to post lol. Besides if WIX were to disappear myself (and I bet many others) would have to resort back to old hobbies, and my old hobbies aren't worth going back to

Right??? If it weren't for Mark's awesome photos, I might actually get something done at work!
Seriously Scott, keep us informed on what is needed. How long do those suspensions last?

Not much can be done for now but wait. Takes about a week to find out.
Thanks for the support and putting up with my vent.

I thought that was the name of a new plane! I was upset because that was the name I wanted to use on my T-6.

Surely they can't blame you if you were hacked?

Yeah, you might as well be talking to HAL. "Open up the website doors HAL" We all know how that turned out and actually you are talking to HAL.
The older I get the more I realize the Unibomber Manifesto should be required reading in school. There will never be a Zombie Apocalypse, but with people already attacking Google cars the next social war will be against the machine.
Just pray for justice on this site.
