The biggest hack in Roblox history. (Updates as they happen!)

WARNING: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN INAPPROPRIATE LANGUAGE!!

Today, April 1st, 2012, Roblox was hacked. We all thought it was a April Fools prank, but we were wrong, so very very wrong.

UPDATE:"So, Minish was talking to Merely,correct? And all hell broke lose, and Minish got unbanned, but how was Minish talking to Merely before he got unbanned?" -BillCheesey5

Now I'm thinking, how did this happen? Did Minish have communications with Merely outside of Roblox?

My Question: Why was Pheedy and are17 Made admins? Also, I was talking to Merely and asked him about the above. His answer was, as I quote, "Nope I thought Minish was Shedletsky."

-------------------

THE HACK

-------------------

It all started when Minish was unbanned, then Merley and Minish had an argument over some money, Minish then proceeded to buy Merley's favorite hat, the domino crown. Then it all went down. *Note: The person on Minish's account may or may not be even be Minish.

Then, a face by the name of "c:" was released by Roblox, but yet, Roblox did not own the face.

The only person who was able to even buy it was StickMasterLuke, due to it giving a error message when clicked on.

(It retrospect, I find it quite creepy someone releasing this kind of face right before the hack)

Everyone thought this was a joke, and that Roblox made StickMasterLuke buy it just to make people believe it was buyable.

This was not the case.

Soon, "Roblox" allowed Are17 and Pheedy to become admins. Even stranger, no one had heard from these robloxins in quite some time.

Soon, the banner had a spaz attack, with random stuff appearing, and the colors constantly changing. (This is not all of the banners.)

Then, all of sudden, over 25+ hats were released nonstop, some hats being limited with only 2 in existence, some hats for 1 robux, it was complete mayhem.

People began being hacked, posting vulgar things on the forums, including admins.

People starting getting riduculus amounts of money, but some people got them taken away, other people's money was rendered useless and did not allow them to purchase items.

UPDATE 9:13 PST.

Roblox is back online.

The catalog is "shut down" and people are unable to purchase anything.

The TC is shut down.
