There is no apology needed, Rick. Short-term outages help us realize how much we enjoy/rely on this site. With any luck, additional users may be inspired to make a donation (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/payments.php) to offset your server/hosting costs.

You're the quiet guy, working hard behind the scenes. I know this place wouldn't exist without you. Thank you for all you do.

Attroll,

Thanks for all your hard work on behalf of WB and HF.

.......yes!

Thanks Troll, Rock et al

I assume no credit card info was compromised?

I thought something was wrong with my computer at first when that music started. Do you know the reason it was done and by who???

One correctoin AT Troll, it's "We're" as in "we are" not "where" as in "Where did white blaze go?".
Please take this its humorous intent,

Yeah boyeeeeee!!!

Wow - that was fast! Thanks!

Thanks for all the hard work, ATTroll. Hope you didn't lose too much sleep.....Thanks to Sgt Rock as well - I understand he only got about two hours of sleep the first night we were down as he worked to identify the problem.

Good job! I was jonesing for a Whiteblaze fix!:banana

Oh, forgot to mention, I like the Go To Last Post button on the homepage. Very convenient. (If that has been here all along, I must've missed it somehow:confused:...)

I'd like to thank the Academy, my momma....oh wrong speech.......many thanks to ATTroll and SGT Rock and crew for getting White Blaze back up and running again. You guys did a phenomenal job, thanks. I hope y'all didn't lose too much sleep over this. For those of us suffering from WBDD (White Blaze Deficit Disorder), we've all taken a deep breath of relief. :D

WELL DONE!!!!


And thanks for all the time, effort, and headaches. Everyone who had a part in rescuing WB deserves a big raise - expect it in your next pay check. :-)

Has security been implemented/improved or are these kind of hacks undefensible and the resultant outages the wave of the future?

Nice quick recovery.

ATTroll, check your pay envelope, It should contain $1.43 for your great work. Oop,s the dog wanted a bag of treats. Make that $ .44 now.

Thanks for all the hard work getting this site back up so quickly. I missed it greatly.

A heartfelt thank you for all of your hard work. I was so shocked by the attack on whiteblaze, and hope it can be prevented in the future. Surprised at how much I missed reading the latest posts, and the spirited interaction between members. Welcome back. White blaze ROCKS:D

Thank you for all the work you admins. do for us at Whiteblaze.

We apologize for the inconvenience of the site being down. It was a much needed task that was overdue. If you find anything out of place please let me know so that I can fix it.This may have been occurring previous ATTroll, but the menu bars above the thread listings are not lining up correctly in the forums using the Straight Forward template(white background forums). It could be my browser, but the green screen forums are lining up correctly. Take a needed break though, it's very minor.

Perhaps a better title for this thread, might be, "We are back up, and running." Regardless. Thanks for your work. It is much appreciated.

Thanks so much to Troll, Rock, Dixie and the "staff" of WB for all your hard work. We appreciate you!

I think it is your browser because it looks fine to me.

I think I have said it in another thread, but it bears repeating

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Thanks for the fix and the upkeep of this site. Do you know where the hack came from??? Boy it was weird, I was thinking I clicked on and errant pop up or something at first

Thanks for the fix and the upkeep of this site. Do you know where the hack came from??? Boy it was weird, I was thinking I clicked on and errant pop up or something at firstI think they figured out that the strike actually came from Saudi Arabia. Damned muslims. :eek:

I think it is your browser because it looks fine to me.That or the computer. I tried it on another computer and it works as it should, both running IE. Thanks for checking.

I took the comment out

Too much for forum policy (rant against the source of the hack)

you guys get my drift though
