cheryl replied:

Why would someone do that??? How would they benifit from it???  Do they do it just for fun??? Please explain.....

Snazza replied:

That explains why I was unable to log in and when I did there was just the advertising and no forums or anything. I am shocked that anyone would stoop to this level. I can only put it down to pure jealousy that you have such a wonderful site. I am so glad you had backups of most things. It just doesnt make sense why someone would do such a thing.

These people hack because they can!

Back in uni, I was flat mates with a guy with these hacking skills.

He would call me into his room: "Dude, check this out.. I totally hacked 'xyz' site - I am a god!"

There is no reason for it. It is a game.

So Sorry Mr PP that you have had too spend your valuable time sorting it out...what a hassle...

This pretty much sums up how I feel at the moment....I'm almost speechless.

It's just sick...but how many other sites have they affected?

  It's probably one of the most lowest acts anyone could do, really, get a life.  grrr

What an utterly TERRIBLE thing to do!! It amazes me to no end what some people will do with their time! The lack of respect they have for others!

Feeling for ya Mr PP - realise how time consuming putting everything "back together" can be - and you're doing a wonderful job!!

kazza replied:

TERRIBLE!

I have to say, they are just jealous. They are jealous because we have this great site where we can come for advice, have a laugh, gain valuable knowledge & meet new friends.

It is so obvious knowing that at least we party planners Have a Life & that so called Hacker - low life has No Life!

How low do you have to be to do something like that.  What they get out of it apart from warped pleasure is beyond me.  I thought it was just me when i couldnt get on the other night myself.

As one who is totally computer illiterate, I envy the knowledge these people have. Imagine how rich these morons could make themselves if they put that knowledge to good (and legal) use, instead of infilltrating party plan forums!! What an enormous waste of talent.
