I'm not sure iff that's just me, but apparently FA Forum is down, so as all the advertisements on FA? Like I can click on any of the ads and it will says 403 Forbidden...
THe Black Box of Death back in February was a little different tho. That was outright testing of some kind of Copyright Filter in response to Kadokawa trying to sue them.
No idea. All I know is that they're not even smart enough to set HTTPS the default protocol and you have to toggle it manually in settings.
In normal person lingo, that means everything between your computer and FA is sent in plain text unless you ask otherwise - your password, e-mail, everything, and anyone who happens to get hold of it has full access to it all with any basic text editor.
I'm surprised nobody's tried to bring this place down once and for all yet, with this outdated early-00s level security it's a disaster waiting to happen.
Ooooh gosh....
Oh well, I do like the community here, so I guess the better option is to rebuild the website...? I don't know about the https thing but I probably just forgot about it...
I still can't get to the forums... that's really bad ;_;
Or if you want to be more precise, it's a shithole glued together with saliva by underskilled Canadians.
But then at least they don't really earn much right? Unlike what happened to DeviantArt...
