Did anyone notice that the banner at the the top of the website has been changed? Here's a screenshot (http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/369/moretimexg9.png) of what it used to look like. (I realize it's not the most recent, but it's good enough.)
Here's what it looks like now. Screenshot. (http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/7193/whatthefrickisthisww2.png)
Oh jeez... I sincerely hope we're not being hacked. I actually changed my password, in fact. Mods, be on the lookout for suspicious activity.
The scary thing is, we actually have been getting wierd messages lately. I'm a bit frightened myself. 4chan has been taking down Zelda sites lately, after all. We should probably set up a meeting place for if this whole thing gets crashed. I vote the ha2 talk forums. Bookmark it just in case.
http://ha2talk.proboards98.com/index.cgi
What do you mean by "weird messages?"
Anyways, I'm not sure if it's a full-on attack yet or not... Only the banner has been changed, to my knowledge. If it is, though, damn, isn't it typical that this happened the very day Gamefreak, the only one who has the keys to the forum, leaves for a week to go on a field trip?
Oh, and I've bookmarked the HA2 forums.
If it were 4chan, at least they're not posting porn all over the place.
Exactly why I said "Mods, be on the lookout for suspicious activity."
Too bad Jack's not here. He could save us all!
*looks at banner* Holy crap! That's new! :o
what teh crap...?
Guys, let's start searching through the new members list and see if we find anything...
Good idea.....maybe we can ask KP whats happening.
But something is definately not right..
He still hasn't gotten on AIM yet, he probably won't for a few hours...
and dude, you need to clean out your inbox...

Yeah Ive been meaning to get around to that, thanks for the reminder ;)
God, they got the front page now too, it seems. I don't think that's KP's announcement, it sounds unlike him, they must have hacked his account. It's got links to the other sites, I hope they didn't screw with those too...
D: What... what happened to TIK (http://z11.invisionfree.com/theironknuckle)?! The popups say I changed it, but... :\
I got a couple odd messages... but nothing too bad
WIERRRDDD
hmm... u do know that it's april fools day...
what if the whole field trip thing was just a set up to this! the ultimate april fools joke! MUAHAHAHA. good one... very funny, but u didn't fool me!!

You know, I thought of that too. It's a pretty tasteless prank, especially since so many Zelda websites have been hacked recently.
I noticed something about the main page. I was at "Legend of Zelda.com" last night, and I think it might be either them or someone posing as them behind this. For one thing, our banner is now "Legend Of Zelda.Com." On the April 1st entry on the main page of our website, there are many references to, and lines taken from, LOZ.Com's April 1st entry. Check it out for yourself, the similarities are unmistakable. Plus, the article on our main page is written like
they are talking about
us. Also, as Shika said, it doesn't seem like KP's announcement.
Or, theory number two, KP is behind all this. I doubt this is the case.
What's all this hubbub about? I don't see anything wrong with the banner or anything like that. I assure you, there has been no hacking. LoZ.com has had no files recently deleted or changed (besides those associated with today's update), according to the FTP report. There's no need to panic here, guys, everything is as it always was.
You know KP, I thought you would have mentioned something about the Zelda Movie Trailer that Exploding Deku Nut (http://www.legendofzelda.com) posted. You're usually on the ball with these things. :D
Anyway, I might make a post about it back at the Colossus (http://www.explodingdekunut.net). Depends if I can find a higher quality version. :P
Well you see Darth, I wanted to keep it all for myself. All for myself.
But yes all, you should go watch that trailer. EDN has it linked to apparently, check it there. It's good things.

Did you do it, then? If not, how do you explain the suspicious and highly unusual changes to this website?
Quote from: kamakaziplumber on April 01, 2008, 04:58:20 PMLoZ.com has had no files recently deleted or changed (besides those associated with today's update), according to the FTP report.
LoZ.com isn't the site we're concerned about. It's us. LoZ.com doesn't show signs of being hacked; we do.
Quote from: kamakaziplumber on April 01, 2008, 04:58:20 PMThere's no need to panic here, guys, everything is as it always was.
Everyone who's posted in this topic appears to believe otherwise.
EDIT: Even stranger activities are happening here! See the two posts above this one? They're clearly posted here, on The Desert Colossus, but they're quite clearly
not at the same time! And look at the link that "Darth Citrus" posted, supposedly leading to us. It leads instead to explodingdekunut.com, which has a quite fake-looking Desert Colossus main page imitation. Click on "The Forums," and it leads to "The Forbidden Woods." It looks like we're not the only ones to be hacked.
I'm scared for this website now.
But we are LoZ.com. So there's nothing to worry about! ;D
Duh, look at the banner, dum-dum.
Kids these days.

Are you joking? I'd say this is quite clearly something to worry about.
How strange. How'd I get to the Desert Colossus? D:
It would appear you either entered the URL into your web browser, clicked on a link, or selected it from your bookmarks.
I noticed something about LoZ.com I must have missed last night. The title of the webpage is "Exploding Deku Nut: Cause Humor Aint Just For Crazy People." Does that make sense? At all? Add this to the fact that when you go to explodingdekunut.com, you get a Chinese sweat shop-grade knock-off of our main page, and what do you get? Evidence of a mass-hacking of Zelda websites.
Sir, I will not stand for this! I have worked on The Desert Colossus for years, and to have it called a Chinese sweat shop-grade knock off is insulting.
There is nothing wrong with this site LoZ.com, or EDN or TDC.
And it's explodingdekunut.net btw. Not .com
You have insulted my next favorite Zelda webmaster, TW. I challenge you to a dual!
I present to you your choice of weapons: a gun with no bullets or a bullet with no gun. Choose one wisely.
Im still confused on things, stupid school keeps me away from here so yea, I really have no idea what is going on!

Speaking of which, why don't we at LOZ have a spoiler tag option?
e.g. [spoiler]HnS sucks[/spoiler]
We need a fake spoiler tag as well.

I think its TB hacking. way to mess up my computer when i clicked that link. real nice.
Wait, his link screwed up your PC? That shouldn't have happened..
yea, it kept moving around in circles then a whole bounch of internet browers started opening up and I had to close down my computer. but it works now, but hey, I gotta get goin, later guys.
Lulz, Jdog can't take a joke. Lulz.
Would somebody mind telling me what happened in this topic?
Well, TW started it up after noticing some weird things happening on the homepage. Then some of us would try to assure that nothing was wrong, albeit with a flair of ignorance to make things more suspicious. Nothing serious, I'd say.
Twilight Wolf thought that the reason the front page changed was because of a hacking. We kept playing along like this site was always legendofzelda.com, because that was the prank. Then he accused me of being hacked, so I obliged. Then Tacheon followed suit, getting into Jdog's account and posting and changing his own name to a hacked one. DW pretended to be hacked, changing his name to agent celery and posting in symbols. Jdog never realized that it was a joke and launched into a very angry, swearing tirade at the 'hackers', and when we realized he was getting out of control I wrapped it up, pretending that I got the hacker to leave me alone until Jdog calmed down. Then we revealed it was a joke, and Jdog thinks it was funny now.
I don't care for the way this was handled to be honest.
I don't mind the changes that were supposedly made to the site, or you guys pretending to be hacked. But actual hacking is a definite no.
