Seems like someone still has someone's password. Rule of compromised email accounts: change every single account and secret answer. You never know what information they obtained from your inbox archives.
 
...They've gained access to Admin's CPs. It appears as if either Joe's, SM's, or RaZoR LeAf's accounts were hacked, because they're the only ones that can gain access to things that let you modify things such as this. That, and they deleted Brinstar's account. Only Admins can do that.

I'mma gwanna say the forums are screwed now. :<

Now? Were you even there last night? Everything got deleted then. All the mods, including Serebii himself. It was rather...interesting to say the least. ._.
 
Wow, this is really becoming epic. Has it all stopped yet, or are there still instances
with this so called hacker over at Serebii? I didn't really notice anything when
I went there, but I really can't tell since I'm usually not over at the site.
 
The forums seem to be fixed now....

The site is messed up again....HACKORZ!
 
Now there's a picture of some random girl. This is really starting to get annoying. The first few pranks were a little funny, but now it's going too far.

What happened to the forums when the mods got banned? I was asleep when this was happening...
 
Has the culprit been found? Any idea?
 
They all think that it is Ian Gravey(I believe that is his last name). His Wikipedia article says that he played various pranks on Serebii and Smogon before, calling those attacks "Denial of Service" attacks. I would take that information with a grain of salt, because Wikipedia can be edited by anyone. That DOS information could have come from someone who wanted to pin the blame all on him.

The most hilarious thing was to see all the members can into a fit. They wanted to form into a "witch hunt" of sorts - I guess you could call it "hacker hunt" - and threaten the hacker with various...Pokémon smilies. Because, you know, the Internet is serious business. And life can not go on if you do not have all your posts.

That's all that I know. I mostly spent the day laughing at the members and their virtual threats.

But no, they have not yet pinned the blame on a secure suspect.
 
Yeah, the members on SPPF were freaking out. I yelled, when the site turned to Digimon,

"THIS IS ANOTHER SICK INTERNET TERRORIST ATTACK BY DIGIMON FANS!"

And some actually believed me and started to blame Digimon fans, lol....

I hope it wasn't Ian Gravey, since he is the US Champ.

That is sad he would do that, it really pretty much fucks up the entire Pokemon Fandom.
 
They think it's Aneng, though.

Now this photo is on the site:

Listen, no matter what, we will fight for the forums. we are not screwed yet.

also, the hacks are bad. very bad
 
The forums seem to be okay now, it's the site that we should worry about.
 
The US Champ of the TCG...

So if he did do it...what a asshole, seriously. He is successful and he goes and hacks a site, and basically causes alot of kids too see porn...my god...just...he sucks if he did.
 
Kids stumbling across porn when they go to their favorite site is not funny.

Exactly. I've got the site pinned as my favorites, and my 5 year old cousin stumbled acrossed it. I seriously hope you find that hacker.
