Because... there ARE a lot of people on here who type horribly and reply way too fast they don't even take the time to read and fully understand the posts before them? ^^;

True, but those hackers didn't need to insult the more intelligent members, the mods, admins, and the site itself as well. I mean, what's done is done. They hacked the site and got a lot of members in trouble by linking them to porn sites, why act like even bigger asses by bragging about it on the "InterwebZ"? -.-

What is this, some sort of forum rivalry or something? Could that be why they hacked SPPf?

Now pardon my language 'Serebii', but those hackers were complete wankers. They get kicks out of ruining a forum. To be honest, Serebii is a competitor to my site + forum, but that is no reason to hack into they competitions forum and attempt to destroy it. Good on you Serebii for getting rid of the *******s. They should grow up, and find something useful to do.

*Bows down and chants, "ALL HAIL SEREBII, BEATER OF ALL BLOODY HACKERS!!!"*

Help, if you need it.

Until a few months ago, I was the webmaster for Kenzer & Company and we used vBulletin for our web forums. If any of the mods/admins are looking for a little bit of technical help I'm available.

I do not want a full time mod/admin job. If I wanted that I would not have stepped down from the K&C job!

We never had a problem with a hacker breaking in bur we did have some spammer issues and banned users trying to sneak in with new accounts.

Hey, I dont know if anyone had seen this but when I entered Serebii while it was hacked, there was a banner of UPNetwork. I clicked on it and I was redirected to there forums. There I saw a topic called: Serebii's dead!. It was a rant on Serebii. Maybe the hacker is from there?

No.

There was something like this with Smogon too. It said "Nil sine Pokemon", and everyone assumed they were the hackers.
Apparently something of the likes happened with UPNetwork.

The hacker was trying to turn all Pokemon communities against eachother.

Was it Ian Gurvey?

hmm......

The hacker was trying to turn all Pokemon communities against eachother.

sounds like what happens in naruto. orochimaru was trying to turn all the villages against eachother. and on my website, someone did read the rules. one of them was:1. no swearing, sex, or blood. especuially in pictures.and if you pm me that says anything that breaks the rules, i will permanently ban you for beimng so rude.
well, he named himself penislord, so i changed his name to p-lord.
well, a few minutes after i noticed that, i got a message. the title was "hi", so i thought it was a friendly letter. well, he said in it," d*** you B****! You can s*** my dicks s***! Mother f****er!
i was real ticked. i banned him. he was really asking for it.... i wonder if he was a hacker, or someone mischievious(obviously)
I just noticed my rank went from coral eye to blaine, does that mean the hacker lowered our ranks by deleting 5000+ post in serebiiforums?

I didn't get anything. and dont worry, i can get my brother to help because he is a computer expert. he can even operate on my computer and transplant parts from histo mine. so now we're safer.

Nice, thanks Serebii. Just tried to access it. Seems its not working yet. hope the hacker doesn't return >.<

I think the hacker was pokemon pro or whatever his name is. You know the guy who says he's parukia's little brother. He threatened to hack the site even more than he already has. He also threatened to hack my computer. And yes I've reported him.

They were saying that MUCH of the community here are a bunch of noobs, and generally with my experience here, I have to agree with that with the handfuls of intelligent people here. I don't think the people who hacked the forums should have done what they did, but after reading some of the posts from Anenga that were posted from people here sounded like complete idiots praising Joe and how "great he is." I especially noticed this on the site when the hacker hacked Serebiis account and made those posts in the announcements. It was especially obvious that Serebii himself had his account hacked. Why? See those topics in the announcements about the hacking with the site "still hacked?" See the posts he made? Serebii isn't the guy how types. "The site is still hacked. Hooray." Serebii gets extremely angry when that happens. Serebii also doesn't post the sites banners from 04 when his site his hacked. The Hacker probably found them while hacking it and posted them here. Serebii doesn't also talk like a noob and ask for the rules in 1337 speak when Serebii by now memorized them all. Wasn't it obvious? I guess not.

I'm just saying that some of you can't realize if someone is imposing as Serebii and sound like idiots when defending yourself. At least on Anenga that is. Still, this site is pretty hard to kill with so many people and back ups. I only come here for the info basically.

Actually the hackers didnt post anything...I did, I just felt my sarcasm was a welcome change from being angry and ****** off

And I did ask for the rules since I didn't have a copy of them and the hacker wiped the entire announcements forum including them

so could that be why people lost posts? the hacker deleted teh announcements, so all those posts were lost from the post count?

one last question; which rank is higher? the Buggsy, or the Lugia/dragonite w/ masterball?
