Some Wisdom from me. It's unlikely and unfathomable to expect full disclosure from the admin team in entirety about the events. I doubt in all honesty the mod's know much more than we see here - perhaps recent events have changed communication policies - perhaps not, don't know, not my place to know, In my three years on that side of the fence, "sensitive" information was usually filtered, for simplicities sake and the like. I'm glad Tip.it is back, but I'm not much of a frequent user anymore to where my presence will likely impact the community at large I do hope Tip.it avoids any future altercations and stays safe, and I hope the community grows again, as it did when it happened in the past (2003 or 2004). It happened to a plethora of other fansites from what i've heard, so tip.it was not alone. From an IT perspective, you shouldn't trust *any* website with duplicate passwords. Tip.it's future largely depends on how the users react to this event, as regardless of how forthcoming the adminstration may be with every nugget of information, the ultimate damage has already been done long before they had a chance to issue a statement, and user trust after a hacking, is hard to gain back quickly at times. Seeing the scope and range of otherfansites affected by it, I can't say it's a good time to play runescape, let alone use a fansite. Seeing the scope and range of otherfansites affected by it, I can honestly say I guess alot of communities are having the same soul searching right now Take Care all ~Bird of Prey
