I have repaired and/or replaced items deleted during the hack attack and have recovered nearly all of the older historical posts. I'm completely stumped how they do or did their nasty deeds. The only part I haven't been able to reconstruct is the far right column that reports the "Reply" posters name date and change on each post. Luckily that has little to do with the contents, just basic user info.
The next area to be cleaned up is the Members Roster which now indicates 33,590 members. I believe it was last January when I cleaned out over 28,000 members, but now the number is back up and larger. These are legitimate sign-up but mainly by eager spammers wishing to post all types of unsavory material or ads. Since they need legitimate email address or need to go and check their emails to access they go no further than becoming a member, and its too much work to carry on.
I will let the board know when i start deleting member names and hopefully not any active members. If I do delete anyone's membership, simply email me and I get you member name and password reestablished.
All the best,
Dick . . .

Thanks Dick, too bad you have to go through this crap, which certainly takes time.

Thanks for all the effort Dick, the site would fail if not for all your time spent cleaning up after these twits!
Thanks again,
