    Just been reading through the various forums quickly and couldn't see it anywhere but what happened? How come wrxatl.com went down?

    Anyone?

    thanks

    Server got hacked. They messed up the front page but the rest of the site still worked if you used really long links to old posts.

    Hopefully Alex will chime in and give a more technical explanation.
