To anyone thinking this was a milicous hack, READ THE EMAIL.
Its a notification offering the admins of the site the opportunity to fix the holes, they aren't giving out the DB or anything...

Lets hope. The site doesn't need this type of attention. This post was useless and should of been kept private(They have a forum and a staff inbox). I don't think AOM wants or needs all this attention on FST. I do agree with why they don't want members who are not magic experts. Give these AOM threads a rest please.
Ah yes.. Thats the whole point. Only magic experts. If your not an expert, then AOM doesn't pertain to you.

Excuse Me?
Didn't Think So!
ohh this is why I got a random invite to a tracker called salad
Yep! FST is full of magicians! As you can see by the numerous AOM requests and everyone trying to signup with the fake open signupsAh yes.. Thats the whole point. Only magic experts. If your not an expert, then AOM doesn't pertain to you.
Every BT Tracker has it's fair share of problems(Don't use that excuse). The admin already explained the requirements. Members apart of AOM, should keep AOM news, within AOM(I said it three times lol). If the admin wanted this news out, she would be a comm rep here and share it with us(But thats not the case). Also I think it was really nice of her to explain the whole sign-up situation with us, even though there was not any requirement to do so. Shows that they care and actually respect their members (Or people wanting to be members). If your Magic expert contact AOM. If not, be happy and let live. You won't become a member there.

owned by a Magic Hacker LOL
Happy to be at last
These people stole the database I guess that is not considered malicious in your eyes, but it could be used for a bunch of other things like for example spam.
If these hackers really cared they would of found the hole and reported it with out having to steal the database and emails.
I feel sorry for the site but this has happened to so many sites in the past few months that I hope site coders start to really look at there site security before anything else.
But of course you are, hacking the site from inside is much easier, isn't it?Dear AOM Member,
... i´ve been a member ever since filefight ...
Greets,
salad.tl team
Don't be fooled with salad's gracious and kind full message, if he gave a *!#@ he would personally and privately notify the admins and not send a world-wide-spread message to all the users...
Then again, i do not think these guys mean any harm, they just want to show the community that AOM is not that great and get other site owners scared while showing the world who's on top. if i was a 15-years wanker i would probably do the same thing...
Personally, if i was the owner, first i would be terrified, probably take the site offline to the garage, try to figure out how the hell it happend.
Once the mistery is unfolded, i would track down these guys down, if they are members they must have left trails, but then again, it seems that the guys only know their way around magic... Probably the site is still up.
And as we already know, magic will not solve this one out!!!
I didnt get any such mail
