The forum got compromised even through avatars. I don't know how wise it will be to leave it exposed, the incentive to attack this is very high.
Does anyone have a link to the main thread where this 2013 security breach was discussed? I'd be interested in what exactly happened back then.
It's not "just" for this forum, it could be a competitor to all the other forums. If they do it right, it could be quite a boon for bitcoin.
That's true. Will epochtalk be available for free? I guess not, given the >350k dev costs. So one should price licenses competitively and sell only for bitcoins..Not found the thread but found a video of apparently what the hack did:

That hacker must have a sense of humor, lol.
What the hell lol , this is really happened on the website ? It looks a video montage to me
btw here is more informations about the hack , found this on the description of that video => http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1nmdq4/bitcointalk_hacked/also more info here : http://cryptolife.net/bitcointalk-hacked/
Yes all else aside, it was pretty funny. Would pop up a dialog box with a progress meter that said it was converting your bitcoins to cosbycoins.
Maybe that could be implemented as an April fools joke? Anyways, did you guys catch the hacker, or at least know who he is?
Anyways, I found this picture, it is one of the things the hacker did.
