I'm (or was) the co-leader of the "Dragon Tail" clan... but it seems that the clan's thread has been deleted, but we everything was okay on the thread (we didn't break any rule concerning clan's threads) Also, it's not on the trash can neither... Help please? :c

Quote from HewittIs dickybayu the leader of this clan?
Yes, i asked him if he's banned, but he told me that he didn't had any infraction lately... is he banned? ._.

Quote from HewittAlright, here's the thing: Earlier yesterday I was PM'd of dickybayu's "suspicious behavior". It seemed he started unfriending everyone, deleted his avatar and signature, and his entire clan thread and some posts. I did an IP search and found no signs of foul play---it's still him or at least someone in his country. It seems, whoever erased these things was really dickybayu. I guess he decided to give up on this place and just delete everything without saying a word? Have you talked to him through other means recently?
The only other explanation is someone IRL knew his password and went on as him, specifically to delete his shit...which is just odd. Why would this IRL person specifically target the clan page and it's not like he tried to do anything to get himself banned or posted irregularly.
Wow this shocks me a little .___. i'm chatting with him via facebook right now... i'll ask him now, thanks Hewitt :D
EDIT: Also, it seems that he can't login on his account... maybe someone changed his password.

Quote from HewittIt's just as I thought. He must've gotten "hacked" then. Probably someone in his country knew his username and password. Because I am seeing one IP address that's slightly different from the rest.
EDIT: In the meantime, all I can do right now is revive your clan thread. But there's no telling when the dickybayu account might come back
You can always just perma-ban the dickbayu account and have him make a new one BY CONSENT of the MODS. I do realize having another account is not allowed but these are special circumstances, and might require this action. As for dickbayu's RHG, it was probably deleted, anyway.

Quote from HewittYeah, I've asked LFIlo to relay this to him when I sent my reply. Cos we don't know if dickybayu knows who hacked him. I just seems too coincidental to not be personal.
What the heck does this mean? Anyway, this account must be stopped from creating any more destruction, or, confusion on the forums. Also, if possible, the hacker must be identified and stopped. Hewitt, what else can you figure out about the odd IP Adress, do you know where it's from. If it's not from dickbayu's location/computer, then it's obviously some hacker(remote) attack. Who would target the SP forums anyway?

He doesn't know who did it, so he's using other account... and with the clan thread, don't worry... i'll post the thread again, since he wants me to be the new leader... :D

Quote from HewittWhat. All I'm saying is, I just find it super odd that whoever stole dicky's pw lives in the same country as him and would just delete his shit and do nothing else. The fact that he didn't do anything particularly lulzy like shitpost and troll shows that this was personal and probably knew dicky IRL and basically hacked him as a person with social engineering. If it was an attack on this site, we wouldn't be talking with each other right now and the forum would've shut down from a ddos or something.
That's unfortunate. Have him PM me with his new account like we talked about. I'm gonna bin the old dragon tail now since you're going to remake it anyway...
Then, that means it must be up to him(d-bayu) to figure out who it was if he wants to, so good luck to him and Dragon Tail. Hewitt, well, it's nice to see you're defending SP forums so that the writers from the future can take it over. ;) *wink*
