GuildWars private servers were not hacked directly but through the EQEMu database, the servers themselves are still secure from unauthorized access. Because of this incident a character wipe will be taking place (Donators will receive their items back on the new server, we will also be upgrading to EQLive compatability), the server is down for an undetermined amount of time due to the fact that I do not want to bring the server up till I know that I am secure from any further intrusion. The intruders ISP's are being contacted to have their internet revoked and possibly further action will be taken to show that we will not tolerate these acts.
There's your answer.
