For a few hours the community was deleted and malkin and I were removed as maintainers (so we couldn't fix it). Sugarimp is/was our other maintainer, and it looks like her account has been hacked and whoever did it had some fun at our community's expense (deleting the community and changing all the settings).
The "sugarimp" user name no longer has access to our community, so we shouldn't have any more trouble and I believe we've put all the settings back to their original state.
Wish sugarimp good luck, goodness knows what else the hacker has done....
I noticed that when I archived the community, but wasn't sure when it was posted or how long it was up (it was post dated to late tonight). Thanks for letting me know that I shouldn't have to worry about it popping up later.
Of course in the future feel free to contact me or malkin if you see something fishy. Generally we're pretty fast about deleting spam, but a heads up can't hurt :)
Ugh, I had my LJ hacked a couple years ago, and it was a frightening experience. It's only when it was gone that I realized how much I love it. I hope everything works out for the real sugarimp.
