Well, if your reading this, and was a member of New Gallifrey you are probly aware of the unfortunate fate that has struck, it seems some jokers (or possibly a virus) has hit a few Phbboards and one of them was New Gallifrey, so untell we can fix the problem at hand we will currently be returning to the Old Gallifrey boards, feel free to inform the rest of the crew by any means you can and show them here, we will probly be keeping this old board up just incase another thing like this happens. In Closing..Bummer.

Gallifrey will return in phpbb form, if I have to spend the rest of my waking hours it will not die to some damn hacker. I plan on restarting this site very soon and I hope that you all will join me at the new Gallifrey very soon.
My idea for a place away from the chaos has only been paused, it will return. I promise you all.

It seems the same thing that hit yours and other Phbb sites Iain has also got to a large number of Other Forums and Sites, tried to acess a few others i Visit/Lurk and they too had experianced a simular Worm Virus. Same Message Too. Guess some Cracker though it'd be funny to spread this and piss everyone off when they came back from Christmas Holidays.

I know a few people that had the capabilities to do so, but they had nothing to do with Gallifrey or anything linked to Koei for that matter.
Bastards, but it can still be recovered, I hope.

I am not sure if the original site can be restored, Amy (a friend that has access to my website) checked the files and they are quite corrupted, it was a worm virus perhaps even, spreading from one phpBB board to another via google search engines. I am sorry but the last four months memories may be perminatly lost. I'd like to find the hacker whiz that did this and....

So I just found my way back here. This has had me upset. I honestly felt angry that our board was down. I won't give up on you all. Thanks for finding your way back here, I was afriad of losing some of you due the fact you dont all come from sites I moderate at. I am waiting to here back fom my host site and gathering information, untill then look around and remember the good old days here. I knew I left this site alive for a good reason, now it is finally seeing some life again.
