I hand't been to amigart in years, because it was a mostly dead site with few updates.
I read the website today, and I agree totally with what they said, for news reports, they shouldn't have been expected to be able to configure security issues of the various tools....
but it is a sign of the times, that our community has more script kiddies who can repeat publicly well known exploits (not a bit of creativity went into bringing down a site like that...its all monkey see, monkey do)
and not enough computer talent to even defend against it...not enought talent to even make a backup.
I don't blame the news reports... but our community has almost no technical talent left.
SIGH
I said our community, I mean your community...SIGH
