Hello, this is your technical director.

This is an important message to everyone who is currently hosted on WC3C.

In reaction to some attacks launched from the server, we are tightening security. There have been major changes 'under the hood,' which should be mostly invisible to you (you may find errors where there were none before; please report those to Draco). For hosted users, we have disabled all CGI and PHP use, with a few exceptions. Also, usernames for FTP access have changed. Your new username is the old one appended to 'wc3c_'. For example, if your username used to be chobo, it is now wc3c_chobo. If you depend on PHP or CGI for your project website, contact Draco or me.

so this change only really affects people who use PHP or CGI?
