Anyone know what happened to MGO? Went to the site looking to buy a pistol and it said it was down due to security concerns over passwords. Figured site staff there may be members here, just wondering if there is a timeframe until it's back up.

This is their message:
The forums are down until further notice due to security concerns, as demonstrated by a member posting a "how to" and hacking a password.

This may take several days/weeks to successfully convert the site to full https to prevent this and protect user's passwords.

Please check back periodically for updates.

Sounds like passwords weren't being sent with encryption. It's going to take time and money to convert to HTTPS.

It will be hard to fund raise without being live, plus they will lose money from advertisers who aren't getting any hits.

Just going further down the rabbit hole
