Some of you arriving here may be wondering what exactly happened to Twilight Hacking. Well, I will attempt to explain exactly what happened.
As you all know, I was not the original admin of the site. When I was given control, the other admins were Mr. Magius and Hat. As I took command, Hat voluntarily stepped down. Things went as you know it for a long time, and all was well.
Now, flash forward to a day or two ago. I received a PM from Hat on Twilight Hacking, saying he was around more and offered to lend me a hand running the site. I've been busy lately, what with it being the end of term and all, and he had been an admin previously, so I saw no harm in it.
Last night, as you all know, quite a lot went down in a short amount of time. I came to the forums as many of you did, to see if anything was new. When I got there, I noticed Hat had changed quite a lot. Nothing was in the same place, the skin was changed, users were deleted, and he took it upon himself to make me a regular user.
As you will have guessed, I was less that thrilled with someone coming to me in good faith and then stabbing me in the back. I asked if it was a misunderstanding, and after a conversation including me threatening to remove all my content from the board and leave, I stayed on and was granted moderator status.
However as you know, Hat couldn't leave well enough alone, and has deleted basically everyone, as well as the forums themselves. So now, anyone who wants a place to hang out is welcome here, with the exception of Hat. We've seen what you do to forums, and you are not welcome here.
Anyone else, however, is more than welcome to come, contribute, hang out, and whatever else they like
