In May 2005, a hacker attacked the site while [[Siblesz]] was in China. Siblesz gave total control of the site to [[Sulla]], but Sulla had to leave for a while and so gave control of the site to [[Spartan]]. Spartan appointed a lot of new people as staff, including bringing back [[Crandar]], who posed as Spartan at various points, banned people, and changed their account names around. Spartan and Crandar and co. pissed off a vast number of old established members, most notably ex-[[Triumvir]]s [[Kazak borispavlovgrozny]] and [[GodEmperor Nicholas]], causing them to leave the forums. [[Ogre's Net]] upgraded the boards to [[vBulletin]] to stop the hacker attacks, and Sulla returned and made peace with a lot of people. Spartan then disappeared for months. In the end, the boards went from control primarily by Siblesz to control exclusively by Sulla. Spartan later became [[Divus]] for his control of the site during much of the event, over the heated objections of one or two members who accused him of having been irresponsible and not having done much. | In May 2005, a hacker attacked the site while [[Siblesz]] was in China.
