    Exclamation Hackers!

    Some you as of late, have noticed unsuccessful attempts to access your account thus, creating a message that your account has been temporarily locked. I have been watching and blocking the IP addresses that these attacks have been coming from (Mostly Eastern Europe). I've not seen any successful intrusions.

    To further ensure safety on the site, I STRONGLY encourage each and every member to change your passwords ASAP and please, make your new passwords as difficult as possible with a minimum of 8 characters with a mix of random characters and special characters.

    Thank you all for your immediate attention!

    Amateurs! 987654321 It's tricky because it's backwards. Not your typical 123456789. No one will ever figure it out.

    Is my password ( Sj73984Hndgsiruty$dfkhhtyd817 ) safe? It's pretty common, but I can remember it!

    What I find interesting is that this is such a low volume site in terms of participants, in comparison to some of the other forums of which I'm a member. Odd that someone would try to attack it *smh*.
