Sims 2 BBS Was Hacked [delete]

All,
The Sims 2 BBS was hacked on Friday night. We've taken the BBS down until we can fix the problem. A robot was written to spam our boards. At this time, if you click on any bbs links, you may see our “The BBS Is Temporarily Unavailable” message or you may get a blank screen.

When we bring the bbs back up, please do not post anything that is off topic. Those threads are making it harder for us to clean things up. Also, please do not post off-topic threads about this on The Sims 1 boards. As of right now, we do not have an estimated up time for the bbs.

We try very hard to keep our boards clean and useful. We obviously do not support this behavior and all accounts involved with this hack will be permanently banned.

We thank you for your help and cooperation and thank you for your patience during this downtime.
