Last night the forum hosted on IF,
http://z11.invisionfree.com/FEShrine_Forums/ was suddenly deleted. I originally thought it was an accident but now I'm starting to think that somebody hacked my account or something. In any case, the current situation is at it's worse.
On a side note, my hotmail has been hacked, which means I can't go on MSN, check my e-mails, tons of accounts on other sites are failing ATM, and that I have lost many important messages and contacts that are associated with my hotmail. >_<
So two horrible things. At the moment our new forum will be here. I'm sorry for all the troubles and hope that you guys can stay strong for the time being.

Your account possible being hacked is a very serious issue, and we should do everything to prevent that from happening again.
We should do everything we can to rebuild our community, and perhaps even make it better than before. Also, I don't think it would hurt to ask around on the InvisionFree Support Forum what the cause of the entire forum being deleted could be.

I've already posted a topic and posted in other topics regarding the issue, no one seems to be really doing anything.
And I've already changed both my e-mail and password, now that my hotmail has been hacked this becomes more serious because I have a lot of contacts and important messages and furthermore somebody could easily impersonate me and I have no way of contacting those people to tell them that my account has been hacked. >.<
And I'm pretty sure it's hacked simply because passwords don't change by themselves and neither do security questions and the answers to them (is it even possible to change that after you register?)

No, they indeed shouldn't change all by themselves. And no, I don't think it's possible to change the security questions and answers.
So they're just ignoring such an important issue? I suppose it wouldn't hurt for me to take a look there, because this really needs to be looked into.

The link is below, and it is indeed weird, it's possible that it's one person as well... Some other extremely freaky stuff happened yesterday too, nonetheless I have to do everything I can to prevent anything else happening.

I am thinking that someone could of possibly hacked Blazer's account on the 'old' Shrine, logged onto Administrative Control and just changed the board's URL to something else. InvisionFree wouldn't close a forum for no reason. Because then, that '404' would turn to: This board has been closed due to a rule in Terms of Service, so-and-so and that. That is my theory.

Someone could've hacked into my account or Seraphinox' account as well. And yes, that really screws up everything. And the board isn't closed, it's completely deleted, and if I'm correct, there is some sort of option that allows that.

Hmmm. I was worried. Well, as long as we're okay now...Or, at least...not dead now. *Sigh*
I'll get to restoring my account information, and posting a bit now, if you want.

Eh, I hope you'll be here often enough, since it would be nice if we could restore the forum with your help, since it's your forum after all.
And of course, Sothe, post. But please try to refrain from spamming...
