The Weekly Flash HowlingMadMika

Welcome to the Weekly Flash. This article contains the highlights of the previous week as well as brief news that may have been covered more extensively in one of the other articles.

This week marked the release of the new layout. The changes include an overall darker color, several new pictures, and a new banner. In addition to the new layout, the [url] bb-code has been re-introduced as well. A link can be made clickable by posting it between [url] and [/url].

A hack link crossed the forums this week. It placed users On Vacation when they visited the link. In a response to the hack links, the vacation form now requires a password to be entered prior to being able to go on vacation. The hack has been modified, however, and seems to be focusing on sending away all on hand money. Furthermore, it is no longer being posted on the forums, but sent by BootMail. In order to combat the hack, FireFox users are encouraged to install the NoScript add-on, seeing it has stopped the hack from working in the past.

Two new Help Desk Operators were added to the Help Desk team this week: CustomStyle and Altro. On behalf of the Buzz, congratulations to the two new yellows.

Tweeks Clown Factory was wiped by Nyc. The shooter was acting on behalf of a new underground crew called Komodo. More shootings were said to be scheduled, so those who wish to can prepare for some future fireworks.

vato55 was promoted to Pennsylvania State Don. He was shot fairly fast, however. Michaelx was also promoted to Pennsylvania State Don, becoming vato55's successor. He was also promoted to Nation Don, but was shot not long after reaching “the end.”
