I don't know what happened, but I do see the closed threads with the very odd titles. My imagination could go in a few different directions.

Someone must have been hitting the hard sauce.

Yes, the forums were totally vandalized when I checked-in early this morning - and it was ongoing.  It was really something to see.

Some excitement on the forums and I miss it per usual.

@hckynutjohn - consider yourself lucky.

Having missed other times when this site has been hacked, I can say only this:  There was such ugliness and nastiness present in the several messages I read on the two forums I visited (Community and Among Friends) that my gut feeling was that there was a severely disgruntled former QVC employee out there or reader of our posts.

Another poster informed me that many of the forums were besmirched with the same sort of filth, but I decided not to look at this garbage any more than I needed.  

There seemed to be a deliberate strike on this site.  But, as I said, I've never previously encountered one of the hacks that have struck here.  It was my first and -- I hope -- my last time.  But it just seemed personal, for some reason.

It seemed like a lot of spam. Thanks for your reply.

Egads!  Is that what "spam" looks like?  I guess I've been protected.

I always miss all the "fun!"

Those of you who didn't see It are.lucky. I opened up a few threads and was shocked and disgusted. I reported some of them as inappropriate as soon as I saw them but I know that they were up for a while.
