Cranfield Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 There appears to be a group of Hackers about, targetting outdoors sports Forums and websites. A few fishing Forums have been disrupted, Anglers Net (probably the biggest ) has had two attacks in the last 24 hours and is currently down again. Apparently a few websites offering shooting and fishing holidays, have also been affected. Hopefully, they will pass us by, but if we disappear, be assured we will return.

Browning GTS Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Maybe the sad idiots should get out and enjoy being in the open air instead of spending all thier time in front of a computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAKEBITE Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 It is possible www.airguncentral.co.uk has been hit so take "defensive" action and watch your backs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAKEBITE Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Thank-you stuartp. To be honest this might just be a flying visit, it's changed a bit on here. Anyway just my opinion and if I don't like it it's my problem and I'll shut the door on the way out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAKEBITE Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 what do you think's changed snakebite? Going off topic a bit really but bear with me It is really the air gun section I got hacked off with. It was the main area I went in as I don't posess any other firearm (and what really winds me up is people giving advice in the sections that they have no knowledge of! I have the working knowledge of the .17hmr round but to go into a section and "give advice" on it would be crass.) It was all the "What is the best rifle for £5? I will ask for advice and then go and do what I wanted to do anyway" questions followed by the "Can I shoot deer with a Gat gun?" enquiries. Oh and not not forgetting the "I can shoot rabbits at 100yds, with the above mentioned Gat gun" threads. As much as I tried to ignore them I couldn't help answering the questions time and time again In the end I thought rather than bitch about it it was time to move on.
