We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Bravenet Services Outage Author: Kimbo [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:16:01 03/05/02 Tue Author Host/IP: 136.8.159.10 The Bravenet board mystery solved.... Dear Members and Visitors, On Saturday March 2, we detected an unauthorized breach into the Bravenet server system. As a result, we have temporaily disabled outside access until we are confident that the integrity of the server system has not been compromised. At this time, we cannot give you an exact time frame for when all services will be restored to normal, as we not only are analyzing security issues, but we also want to ensure that there are no malicious files or corrupt data on the servers when the system is restored. As our server network is very large, it will be an enormous, round-the-clock task to review each system. Unfortunately, we expect this will take several days. While we understand that this inconveniences members and visitors alike, it is imperative that we are 100% confident that we can restore public access, and ensure normal and secure operation once more. We have experienced minimal data loss, but we are doing our best to recover as much as we possibly can. We have put together a page of common questions and a way to contact us below. Thank you for your understanding, we are working as fast as we can. Dave, Brad and the gang, Bravenet.com [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
