My Blog Was Recently Hacked

The following message is addressed to WordPress Support Staff –
Hello
My blog http://feww.wordpress.com/ was recently hacked. At least on one page the following information was added by the hacker:>>
Possibly related posts:* Oceans, Where Life Started, Are Dying – Part I
* I actually feel like writing so do you feel like reading???

* The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (?!)
[URL of the link added: http://reducing4more.wordpress.com/2008/03/24/the-great-pacific-garbage-patch/ ]I’m changing my password, but I can’t see how that action could make my blog anymore secure.
I feel the only way to make the blog secure would be match owner URL against all new entries and changes made to the content.
Thank you.

No, actually, your blog was not hacked.
That is a brand-new feature added by WordPress.com staff just an hour or so ago. It is currently being discussed in at least two threads on the front page of the forum. Always scroll down and look before posting.

Have checked it out now. Clearly didn’t notice the previous trend.
PS. why are you so rude and bitter?

pkayski – humor aside, it’s shame to see a great service like WordPress ruined by the conduct of one or two impertinent individuals.

feww, if you have a problem with anyone on the forums, it’s best for the utility of the forums to take it to your blog or theirs. In this thread I have been neither rude nor impertinent. I have, if you look at the forums, been quite busy answering technical questions. That does not leave me much time to do more than provide information in point form. That is just how it is.

Hehe I am glad you found my comment humoros as was my intention and not offensive *phew*.
But seriosly, I suppose we have to live with whatever we are thrown at that’s free. If someone from the wordpress company acted rude and mean, then yes, that would be a cause for concern. But when it’s a fellow ‘customer’, sit back and take whatever free things they give :)
Peace out!

pkayski – NO! You don’t have to take any nonsense from anybody, “free” service, or whatnot.
I’ll post a full reply on your forum.
