    Why did everyone get so panicked?

    It's fake. Here's how it works ;)

    When you login to your account, the system checks for a cookie called "hacked". If the system doesn't find the cookie, it shows the hacked page (usually the 2nd refresh on the index page).

    Now, for everytime you refresh the page, it will increment the "hacked" value until it reaches 3 at which point it returns back to normal.

    I have a cookie called "hacked" and it has "3" assigned to it. I no longer see this hack'd page ;)

    on IE or FF, go to the index page, type this into your browser:

    javascript:alert(document.cookie); and look for the "hacked=3" cookie (see attachment)

    Did DP just get hacked?

    *Edit* I just made a separate thread, which a moderator nicely added to this thread which I just found, so I guess DP did get hacked.

    Great find...one of the better April Fool's online tricks I've seen on the Internet, especially considering that some peeps always claim they will "hack" the site...

    Damn, if Summer is gone then lingerie prices are set to soar!
    $2m is probably nothing, DP is like, one of the richest forums, just below the Bentley Owners Forum...

    PS. After reading some of the posts, lmao at some of the people explaining how the 'hackers' did it.
