October 14, 201114 yr Good work getting back online people, glad you got the gap closed and the site back up and running. [hide]First they came to fishing and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing; Then they came to the yews and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews; Then they came for the ores and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores; Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.[/hide]
October 14, 201114 yr Hide tags are broken right now, i got some random code or something for one i used Also, I had to attempt to change my password a couple times before it worked <_< If the hacker was a house, i would of burned it down by now Edit: remove the auto log in message for waiting 15 minutes, its quite misleading Stats[hide][/hide]Click for my adventurer's log

October 14, 201114 yr ...and of the warning that we should change our passwords on all other websites which had the same password from this website. Does that still stand?Absolutely. The people responsible for the hack have our database, which includes encrypted passwords. Any insecure password (dictionary words, etc.) can be decrypted quite easily. Better to be safe than sorry. This is especially important if you use this password in any place that contains your credit card information (sites like Amazon). - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog
October 14, 201114 yr All the posts prior to the forums going down should still be here :thumbup:okay Do you guys have an idea wich evil basterds did this? Given they replaced the tip.it homepage with their "advert" and usual waffle about what they "found" on the servers its pretty clear who did it.No idea which people did it (maybe I just don't know them) were it the same guys as the ones that hacked runehq? Thanks for the people who have worked hard for the last few days! http://sign.tip.it/1/2/79/260/essiw.png Retired item crew I would like to be credited as essiw at the website update & corrections forum. Thanks!
October 14, 201114 yr Can you please state: 1) How long they had access to the server from (Date and time of first access)2) When the major database dump occured So I can know which of my passwords they were likely to have obtained (I noticed odd things on the site several hours before it went down so change my password to something random).
October 14, 201114 yr I missed not being able to check here everyday! Thanks to all who got Tip.it and the forums back up! :thumbsup: Nani mo dekinaiChanto dekinaiSore ga dou shita?Bokura wa wakai'n daNanimo dekinaiSugu ni dekinaiDakara bokura ni kanou sei ga aru'n da ~AKB48
October 14, 201114 yr Weeeeeee! So happy that tif is back up, realised just how much I love you guys. Ty for the admins and Forsakenmage for putting up with me whilst I couldn't log in <3: ______________

Why would they have them all? That makes absolutely no sense. Also, notifications are broken and are not appearing.
October 14, 201114 yr They got backups. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
October 14, 201114 yr My question still stands though and the date of the backups would be useful to know too so I know how far back they go. When all your crap is taken you need to divulge what information is taken.
October 14, 201114 yr Like I said - assume all your passwords within the past few years have been taken. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
October 15, 201114 yr Like I said - assume all your passwords within the past few years have been taken. That's not what I asked. I want to know dates of the backups taken, how recent was the most recent backup for example. It's simple information to give and you're not being at all helpful by posting that over and over again when it's not the answer to the question I'm asking. There's a lot more reasons to wanting to know the dates of all the versions of the database they got than just passwords. There's absolutely no reason not to give the dates, it's a simple request. By not giving them you're not doing your userbase justice after you've just cocked up, it's the very least you can do.
October 15, 201114 yr Like I said - assume everything within the past few years has been taken. I don't know exactly what dates the backups were that they got - so the safe thing to do is assume that they got everything. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
October 15, 201114 yr Like I said - assume everything within the past few years has been taken. I don't know exactly what dates the backups were that they got - so the safe thing to do is assume that they got everything. Or you could not keep posting the same thing over and over again and let someone who does know answer the question.
October 15, 201114 yr ...and of the warning that we should change our passwords on all other websites which had the same password from this website. Does that still stand?Absolutely. The people responsible for the hack have our database, which includes encrypted passwords. Any insecure password (dictionary words, etc.) can be decrypted quite easily. Better to be safe than sorry. This is especially important if you use this password in any place that contains your credit card information (sites like Amazon).This is why I tend to use different passwords for things (ie: my TIF pw is different from the one for the e-mail account I used to register here). Although, admittedly, I did use the same e-mail to register both here and on RS (with different pw's, of course) which I quickly changed when Tip.It was hacked. I'm glad I wasn't the only one going through TIF withdrawal the last couple of days. :lol: Congrats to the Tip.It staff for quickly dealing with the problem and getting us back up and running. =D> Innkeeper! Drinks all 'round! :grin: Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero. THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...
