Orange forum problem

[Mr Spyke]

Hi guys, forgive me if this isn't allowed but I know quite a few of the contributors on here are familiar with the orange forum and I haven't been able to access it through either the mobile app or browser!
Maybe I'm out of a special loop or something and hopefully I haven't been banned (no idea why if thats the case) but anyone else having the same issue?

Cheers Spyke

And again please don't shoot me if I'm not supposed to talk about it.

I use 2 forums and the other one (orange) indeed has been absent. never mind new posts on here is actually working for the moment, or have I spoke too soon.

Apparently it has been hacked and caused a considerable amount of damage.
They are hopeful that it will be able to return soon.

It hasn't been hacked. Ownership has changed and it will be back under new ownership soon.

Colin Cook did release a statement on facebook in the "Mobile DJ Network" group I believe.

[Mr Spyke]

My apologies if I have that wrong but that was the information I was given by email.It also confirmed that there would be new a new owner.

I think Christoph's ego finally exploded and took the forum with it

My understanding of the situation is that the forum was indeed hacked and the database mashed...

...The owners couldn't be bothered to sort it so have sold it on - although as it is mashed there's not a lot of substance in the purchase unless it can of course be recovered....
