What happened? - GotSmart - 01-24-2023
I go to post a new thread and am kicked out. When I go to log back in I get a notification that the password has been hacked.

Are you using a VPN? Your last several IPs are showing several different states (Tennessee, Mississippi, and Minnesota).
RE: What happened? - Kyz - 01-24-2023
When we use our cell phones, they can show a nearby state instead of the one we're in. (Mine usually shows Texas)

OK I can post a thread still. Hmm, GS not sure what got ya on that one
RE: What happened #2 - Kyz - 01-24-2023
Did you have the same thing happen to you?
RE: What happened? - Kyz - 01-24-2023
GS, This is one of your IP addresses. This one is "not like the others" so I would consider changing your password. It is probably nothing, but just to be safe... I think cell towers can cause a lot of variation.
RE: What happened #2 - RoamerRV428 - 01-24-2023
No, not at all.

BTW, when I tried to log into the hosting website this morning, we/our server/their services were down for maintenance. It's possible Gotsmart somehow got interference from that action right at the right (wrong) time. I hope all is good now though.
RE: What happened? - GotSmart - 01-24-2023
My thought was that the server had a dust bunny in its data path so it just gave me a random generic pop up.
If there were a real problem the ones in charge would have done the right thing.
I just never have been taken seriously enough to get hacked before. I AINT RIGHT!
But not this time I guess.
I have posted at the location shown before. There is a rest stop there that I once spent the night at. My actual location is a couple hundred miles east.

Other things were happening too , not just to you John.
We're gonna hire 1000 apple geniuses to shovel while we fix it.
If anybody wants to help .
Try out changing something in your user CP to see if anything else decides to wonk out.
TOMORROW !
I just locked up the presidential suite at this resort in the Bahamas where we are for the winter.
OR , I'm tired cuz been shoveling for a freakin' week. You decide.
