Quick announcement about Rudora

[GrowlZ1010]

First things first. Rudora's new managers are WanDaMan, Kiirar, and myself.

Secondly, on Wednesday, May 7, the server was attacked. All levels and scripts were deleted. We had a recent levels backup, which has been uploaded, but all our NC stuff was completely destroyed. We're working on rebuilding it.

The person responsible has deleted all logs, although we suspect that he either got the password of an Admin or was let in by one of our staff. Action is being taken to ensure such a leak will not happen again (mandatory IP ranges, minimum possible rights to do job, etc.), and until we can work out more details about this attack, a hiring freeze is in place so we don't rehire the person who gave out this RC.

However, that doesn't change the fact that months of our scripting team's hard work has been destroyed. We're recovering critical systems now, and most of the jobs have been restored from recent backups, but there was so much in the NC we hadn't backed up. This is going to set us back even longer, I'm afraid.

On a related note, any staff who have lost their RCs as a result of this attack should contact myself on AIM (GrowlZ1010) to get your RC back. You probably won't have the same scope of rights as you did before, as part of our new security setup yadda, but you'll get what you need.

Thanks for reading, and I apologize (again) for the delay. We're working as hard as we can. I'll post server updates every so often - hopefully next time I'll have better news.
