[archive] ACUCORP forum hacked ?

[Migrated content. Thread originally posted on 14 August 2008]

I'd say that it was cleaned up by a moderator before you managed to get here.

I received an "answer" to one of my posts from a baadman28. The email was a useless message that had something to do with "World of Warcraft". When I checked this forum I saw that this user's reply was not posted here.

Has anyone else received bogus email from this forum?

Here's part of the message:

baadman28 has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - Return code problems - in the Language Interoperability forum of Forums.

Ample wow gold (http://www.oforu.com/PLindex.aspx) is necessary for RAID. I am a loyal customer of Brogame. Very helpful.William Letourneau--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Not only the fast delivery of wow gold (http://www.oforu.com/Cheap.065.Age_of_Conan_-_US.aspx), the customer service is excellent.

There may also be other replies, but you will not receive any more notifications until you visit the forum again.

All the best,

Occasionally we get individuals applying for access that have no other reason to get in, but to post these annoying messages.
These users and their accounts are destroyed on a "finding" basis. Of course, we have no means to be able to validate the person behind. That is, until now.
As of today, no new participants using anonymous email addresses (e.g. yahoo, gmail etc) will be granted access without validation from a Micro Focus employee.
Ideally we would like to keep the forum open, but with all those people out there which apparently don't have a life, we unfortunately have to enforce some constraints.
