The 914world.com site was hacked on Sunday 11/13/2022 and the hacker(s) managed to delete part of site.
We're working on restoring the deleted content as quickly as possible but it may take a few days before we can resume normal operation.

Thank you all for your ongoing support

Thanks Pelican and thank you so much Andy for being on top of this problem. God speed in getting it back up with minimal loss. I would stake the offender out in the middle of the desert naked and cover them with honey and leave them.

And the point in hacking a car forum is what again???

What cairo said- thanks to pelican while this is being fixed.

Would be a good time to renew the 914World membership donation,

But I don't know Andy's Paypal to send it.

Can anyone help out here?

BTW I'm Olympic 914 over there, You can see by my post count how much I'm on this site.

I wonder if someone was trying to get credit card info there from those of us who were contributors or sponsors of the world... sometimes I hate the human race.

Payments were through PayPal (the only thing Andy accepts) so no cc info is stored on the forum. - GA

Some bogus for sale ads were posted trying to get money from people.

MarkusB 11-15-2022 01:23 PM

Wow, I haven't been on here since I sold the 914 in 2014. Good to see it's still going strong. Thanks Andy, for keeping World going.
