Regarding the spam incident that happened last week.
This seems to prove that old members have indeed been hacked. Still doing something. ..
why hackers are targeting them

Why do you have two accounts?

The spam originated from the same IP address as your post. I just didn't ban the IP until I had a closer look at the logs.

Don't play around mate! No one has been hacked. And if you choose to break our rules by signing up with multiple accounts and we find out, your additional account will be removed.

Yeah, isn't that interesting.

If I were a hacker I'd try and hijack you and Honje's accounts seeing as you both are well-known and post a lot haha 😋

Then my spam posts would look somewhat legit.
