Our Apologies:

For those who did not notice, our site was down for the past 18 hours; and for those who did notice, we are deeply sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused. On the plus side, we predicted that our site would be down for 24 hours and it was only down for 18 hours, with a few hours of up time scattered about. Our site did experience a minor hacking attempt, but nothing was harmed and no data was compromised. Thanks to the hard work of our top notch scientists doing nightly backups, little to no data has been lost during this down time. Restoring our site was quick and easy; most of the downtime was used to secure our site against future attacks which will also fail against the unwavering excellence of our community.

Data lost:
The only things lost were any images added to our server over the past 48 hours and any updates on wikimafias pages done within the past 48 hours. If you uploaded a picture to our site within the past 48 hours, then we suggest you reupload it (this includes updates to profile pictures). In case you no longer have the picture, contact me and I can provide it. We do still have the files. In the case of wikimafias updates being lost, you will need to re-update any pages that you have updated within the past 48 hours.

Special thanks:
Special thanks goes to iwaityou2003 who caught the h4c|<7r 15 minutes into the attempted attack and alerted TIM staff, Heather who ran intel on the hackers, and DM who took over securing our site when I needed a break. The IMVU Mafias has your back. Together we are strong and together we shall earn more free credits than ever. Nothing can stop the combined forces of our family as long as all of you remain supporting members.

It was the least I could do for h4(k1n9 the site :roll:


Yeah, ...our server admin has tried to accuse DM of hacking our server 3 different times within the past year. >.<

Server admins always freak out when they see a site with multiple admins, because they do not think you should trust someone that much, but DM is like a brother to me. :D Our site has 4 admin.
