Hacker Alert!

I saw on the "favors" board that the moderator (not sure where else she was a moderator) there has been hacked. I guess the hacker has changed her posts, blocked several knotties, and started posting pictures and such.

I know posters are always warning us about not posting personal information on our posts and in our bios. So I was hoping this would remind everyone.

As a result of the hacker (which I guess did some damage) I'm going to change my password.

I wasn't sure if anyone else was aware of this or not, and I know we currently don't have a moderator so I wanted to give Cape Codders a heads up! I know they alerted Knottie Annie but no one on my other boards knew. Just an fyi!

Thanks!!

Yeah I did hear about this, Any idea why we dont have a moderator?

Our board isn't as active as the other boards. All moderators are volunteers and receive nothing for their service. It's sometimes (depending on the board) a full time job. I think if we all wanted one then Knottie Annie would step in and ask someone to be one. However, at this time, posts here are minimal and many knotties gravitate towards the Boston or Rhode Island board.

If we need a moderator here, we can request one.

I sent a message to Knottie Annie about getting a mod.... Id be happy to do it if we need someone, This board used to be much more active, Im thinkin it may also be a little quiet right now cause were ending Cape Cod Wedding season? Maybe a lot of the other 2011 brides arent out here much yet? I dunno just a thought....

eh, most of us truly believe the mod banned all those girls and posted mean things herself and then claimed to be 'hacked'... thanks for the heads up because internet safety is always an excellent idea, but in this case I am pretty sure the favors mod is just certifiable...

I mean, the girls who got banned were her arch enemies and all, so yeah, nutso mod lost it.


btw- knot annie asked if we wanted a mod here maybe a year ago. I wrote her then that little to no drama goes down on these boards so there was no need for one. If anything I think Kiki has been doing an awesome job keeping every one in the loop, but sure! let's have one!

Yeah I agree about the favors MOD.... crazy crazy stuff, Ive been avoiding that board since then

Eck! I wasn't aware of that. I stay on just a few boards mostly and lurk on the others (I'm a big bio stalker). I hope it works out and Knottie Annie steps in if that is the case. Definitely not the environment we're looking for here.

As for the moderator. In Kiki's last roll call she asked for someone else to step in. I posted to her volunteering but if any of you ladies want to be the moderator and take over I'm willing to give up the roll call responsibility to you. I'm on here a lot but not as active as others.

But that being said...do we need one in general?

Thanks for the votes of confidence, Meaghan, et. al.!  It's certainly been fun doing the lists, and I love this board, it's just the reality of things is that I'm not keeping up as well as I used to, so I thought it would be more fair to have someone more active running the list (that's how it was passed to me from kass last fall).  

We certainly don't need a moderator to police the board, that's for sure.  But as others have been saying, it definitely would be nice to have a more active board, where we don't only share resources and info, but try to get to know each other.  

So I too say, go for it, if there's someone who wants to work on livening up the board!
