[THE STRANGER]
[Close encounter.]

MEMBΓ - lost-signal

the discovery forums got hacked today. no idea why or how, but
someone managed to pin a locked message on the top of the site and
did... literally nothing else.

it's like they just wanted to get someone's attention.

it admittedly got to me, though it's probably just a strange,
pretty damn annoying attempt at an arg.

...that or aliens. could be aliens. honestly, it wouldn't be the
strangest thing to come from all of this.

i'm archiving the "message" here for moderation purposes, as well as
feeding it through the automod.
