Popular Post forrestreid Posted 12 hours ago Popular Post Posted 12 hours ago Glad to see the board back too. And could I just say I was pleased to see that the managers of the other main Thai message boards - Moses from Sawatdeeforums and Gaybutton - were offering their solidarity and support (and in the case of Moses, practical assistance) on their boards too while the outage was continuing. Good on them. ichigo, vinapu, Keithambrose and 7 others 9 1 Quote
Members Suckrates Posted 8 hours ago Members Posted 8 hours ago Actually, my HOME pc was ALSO attacked by the AKIRA ransomeware virus, and all my files are LOCKED and being held for ransom. I have an appt Monday to have my pc wiped and restored..... however I am told my files will be gone forever UNLESS i pay the ransome. So basically I will have to restore everything, except I dont have any backup....My bad ! But I am grateful THIS site is back and functioning. jimmie50 and vinapu 2 Quote

I wondered if it was "Trump retribution" for me being so critical and unkind to HIM on this site ? And curious if any OTHER site participants experienced the same "hacking" on their personal devices as I did ? Quote
