Syria is a country. Thanks for pointing out what you saw. We're still trying to figure out what exploit they used, so the site is still vulnerable at the moment.
Hi I was browsing the forms this morning and at 9:48 EST an odd message appeared on the main page (http://pokecheats.net/db/):
S1T3 H4CK3D BY SYRIA HACKER GROUP 0% SECURITY!!!
so I went to the forms expecting to find some help.
When I arrived, there was only one post in the Administration pannel,
at this url: http://pokecheats.net/forum/showthre...13894-sql-dump
the same message fallowed by a link to an SQLdump log
I think this "SYRIA" person did a SQL Injection attack on the server.
Just thought this might be useful for any Admins on here!

Thanks for the info!
I will let you know if i notice any other suspicious activity!
P.S. i was reading into it a bit more and found that SYRAN (Syrian Electronic Army) may have some rivalry with Anonymous and has attacked Facebook with a Phishing scam to steal user credentials!
hang on could that have anything to do with the gts servers?
I did notice earlier today that I couldn't access PSn at all, because I "did not have permission" and the server was down.
I got a 404 error when I tried to access the site
Why exactly would a different country hack this. I mean it just seems kinda random
Wait, they dumped your SQL? Whoa. So they have everyone's passwords now?
