New group
Earlier this week there was a thread posted by BELLAGIO in the graphic requests section asking members to make a userbar for a new group. In the thread title it stated that the group was paid for, however the thread did not contain any information on the group and the thread is now junked. Whether or not any of this is true is unknown, for now all we can do is wait.

Datacenter issues
On Saturday the 25th, Omniscient tweeted that he was facing a few datacenter problems. However he said that they seemed to have been resolved and everything should be back to full functionality. To view Omniscient's tweet click the following link: http://goo.gl/UC8Lc

Junk Section Purged and Posts Recounted
Hack Forums has recently lost over five-hundred thousand posts in the emptying of the junked section. All of the member's post counts were also recounted, dropping nearly all active members’ post counts. This is a required activity and happens every once in a while. "These purges help keep the database trim and tight." As said by Omniscient. This purge has affected many members but also the current staff of HF. One of the staff members, Factor8, or more commonly known as ‘F8’ lost a massive total of 26,000 posts during the purge.
