Topic Happenings to the CWDG Online Site
| Yes, folks, we were hacked by some very nice (note the sarcasm) people from Turkey. The hack to our site was relatively harmless, but it was a bit annoying.
Our wonderful web host, Ravenwebhosting.com, figured out the fix for the issue, and sent it along to me. I have taken care of it, and we shall see if it holds.
Please send me a pm if you are having any problems!

Butts, who claimed during the night the ironclad sank, he shoved his coat and boots in one cannon, and a cat in the other.
