There was a successful hacking attempt made on our server - the hacker got into the root, and managed to screw a load of things up.

The LFN admins are having to re-install a tonne of software and change all the logins. As a result, the server has been down. We hope to be back ASAP :)

Not really reaper ;)

This is totally out of my hands - we just have to wait for the LFN admins to work their magic. However, we are now moving to a brand new server, so things should run a lot faster - especially with all the latest software.

And reaper, there are loopholes and back ways into any site - no version of any software is full proof. If a hacker knows what he is doing, he can really mess stuff up...

It's the AOTC MOD!! They know your MOD is better, and they are plotting a conspiracy against you!!

Well, both mods are huge projects, both mods have a lot of members and both have a lot of publicity. I wouldn't say ours is better (although I like more the Dark Forces subject than Episode 2).

Yeah, and instead of propagating mad conspiracy theories, we should all work together to get better quality and dig out all feasible with the JO engine :D

I can't do squat... except making mad conspiracy theories.

Well, you guys sure do a better job of updating your site! I've been waiting for ages to see some screenshots of AOTC:TC's work. Btw, do you know when the Dark Forces site will be back up?

This is far too complicated to explain. But it is out of my control AND the control of the LFN admins. A server tech has screwed up, and the ball is really in his court.

We honestly don't know when it will be back. But it will be back...
