What do you think caused the crash?

I dont mean to sound retarded, although I do have a very limited knowledge of computers and on-line structure. I know enough to get around on this forum and had noticed almost all the negative publicity about the Camaro is conveniently now missing, due to the crash! Is it just a coincidence, or do I just have an overactive imagination? Word has it that the site was hacked and damaged beyond reasonable repair. Why?? What was there to gain? Part of what made this forum special to me and a lot of us is now gone! All the Camaro bashing, all the threads that enumerated all the flaws, and the Camaro 5 threads leaking out info about all the discontent over the New Camaro- GONE! Did we lose our forum because some mullet-head didn't like our collection of Camaro-specific chatter?

The site crashed because it was hacked into. The reason a lot of the Camaro stuff is gone is because the majority of it is recent - within the time frame from which this site was last backed up. Everything from January to this point was lost, including the Camaro stuff, the Coyote stuff and everything else in the mix. I doubt it has anything to do with the Camaro guys, no matter how much they may hate the Mustang and the community itself. But then again, you never know.

Why do people write viruses?
Why do people write spyware?
Why do people vandalize cars?
Why do people tear up public parks?
Why do people throw their nasty cigarette butts out of the window?
Why do people litter?

Simple, they don't have any respect or honor. Nothing was stolen because we don't have anything to steal. As for the GM/Camaro conspiracy, unless they are shipping them to some small impoverished european country I highly doubt that was the cause.

Or anything better to do...

Thanks to the staff here for getting the site back up and running.

I'd give the hackers more credit than that.

F5 conspiracy. That is all. If you can't get rid of the problems with the car, get rid of the truth.
