After much investigating and problems un-covered, I have found the Attacker did not hack at all, not saying he is not capable of it, but was a former Administrator for the site. and 'teamate' for Ultimate Footmen. The Attacker was Oninuva, I am sure of it, and I will tell you why, but first the background.

Oninuva was entrusted with a simple new feature for Ultimate Footmen as like a test to see if he is to be on the map further, 2 months ago, called the Team Setup which will allow for custom team options, like FFA, Teams of 2, or etc. He at first kept undermining what I wanted until he had a very simple terrain for it as seen in Footman Showdown, I was ok with it at that point since it was taking so long. However after many long silences and confusing/annoying conversations, all that was ever produced was the same terrain, nothing else, and he would send it to me claiming that its done yet nothing on it.

Then since the attack ago, he suddenly added a couply ****ty 'christmas' heroes and changed the map over to a winter tileset, then released the map as 'Ultimate Footmen 1.0' without notifying me or anything. He also made many threats to the website and claimed VG_Emblem was offering 70$ for the unprotected version, although that was a lie and it was worthless as the real new content has been in development outside of the map by myself and MoonRazer. On tuesday he claimed that the team setup was finished and after a very long and irritating conversation I demanded he send it but he refused. You can find the second half of this coversation attached.

So all Oninuva did was cause us trouble and attacked the website. I encourage you all to let him know what you think of his &!%$ by returning the favor to sites owned by him such as gamerz-forum.com and oninuva.com, and rid the gaming world of his trash. Now this is why I believe he is the attacker.

• 1. It was done on his account, with his IP Address. No sign of any forced entry or anything on his account.
• 2. I've asked him many times to tell me proof why he couldn't have done it, and how it might have happened(as he is supposedly a expert with websites and coding, especially forums), but this has only lead to no answers or "why would I do it?.
• 3. It is evident the attacker who was someone familiar with the site, and SMF, as the attack was done through SMF and a specific restricted forum was made public.
• 4. He has made many threats against us, some of these including destroying the website.
• 5. He owns similar websites like www.gamerz-forum.com, thus competition, and why would he be interested in having a admin position if he was not going to do anything for the site anyway.
• 6. He posted and moderated about 6 hours after the attack, but claimed his password had been changed when I spoke to him. When I told him to explain how this is possible, he played dumb.

If you do not believe this is enough evidence, then please reply with why not and I'll be happy to go into more detail. I said I would find the attacker, and well, here he is. Back to working on the map .

Here attached is the last actual conversation I've had with oninvua, at least the second half of it, and by this point I am already annoyed. Its unedited except for the title, and when he logged off.
