    No doubt you noticed that Empty Closets has been down for a couple of days. I understand that the server the site is on was attacked by hackers, which affected Empty Closets and other sites on the server. :frowning2:

    Still - we're back now! :icon_razz

    It was? I noticed there haven't been as many posts but it hasn't been down when I've visited.

    Weird.

    yeah, I noticed... any idea if EC was the target (I take it it's not a dedicated server) or just a collateral?

    I think it was "collateral damage" - it seems EC happens to be on the same server as something else which would have more likely been the main target.
