On February 16th's TBR, some issues came up between dnforum.com and a certain variant in the .ca TLD.
Most DNF users who deal in .ca's know what I'm talking about.
So, I get the following email just a few minutes ago...
I thought this site got taken down?
That's between dnforum.com and whoever may be infringing on its intellectual property. Nothing to do with me.
What I'm complaining about, is how did my email address get released? This email is not on any of my WHOIS records, it has not been publicly posted on dnforum, and so happens to be the email address with which my dnforum account is registered.
Does this mean that dnforum.com was hacked so that the owner of this new forum could notify all of dnforum.com's users to join said new forum?
Any insight as to what's going on would be appreciated - admins, please feel free to PM me with your email address and I will forward the email to you as evidence if need be.
