"The details are a bit painful to tell, but I owe you all the basics.
Someone hacked my Flippr gmail. They used that to get our
Twitter, servers, domain, and everything transferred out of my name.
They also dumped the database, however, a previous hack had left that
with no useful IPs, so passwords were the only real concern. I doubt
many people used a really strong, common password for Flippr.
I'm sorry that it happened. And it's going to take a long time
for me to forgive myself about it. I'm gonna try my best. Flippr has
been very, very stressful to me in real life lately, with bug reports
and threats and so much else going on.
It's not coming back. I'm done trying to play nice in the
cut-through world of CPPSes. So I'm returning the CP Wikia, a far nicer
place, where I will post customs like I used to.
I have filed a claim to get my domain back. If I do, I will use
it as a personal website for the EPF Missions that I will make (same
ones Flippr was going to have, almost like a minigame site). Until then,
wikia is the best way to contact me.
Please note that at this time, I have no control over the @FlipprCPPS Twitter, @FlipprDesigner Twitter, or http://flippr.pw.
I will let you know if that changes. Wikia is the only veritable source
for information. I also will no longer be using Skype or my Flippr
email.
I hope you all enjoyed your all-too-brief time on Flippr. I wish
it could keep going, but I think it was clear at this point that
reviving it was not in my, nor the public's, best interest.
Once again, I sincerely apologize, but I am confident about my
future projects. I'm not going to answer very detailed questions about
how or who hacked us, because it's a very raw wound.
Sincerely,
-Sandor"
