About 75% of the pages were altered, then I edited alot of them back, and reverted the images.

Basically any photo was replaced with pr0n. It's weird seeing "Spoony's strategy guides - Field" and then a pr0n image... somehow they don't connect...

the irony is, pornography is a key part of my usual strategy on Canyon.

I don't want to bore you with all the details of my life, but I am working on a project for work and being sick with a cold which I caught in California, and last night I played my last game of bowling for the summer league I was in (and we WON first place!) -- now I will get this finished.
Just for reference, though... the reason I am investing a little time in this is to prevent it from happening again. The cleanup from this is made pretty easy and would only take me a few minutes. However, I am taking this opportunity to update the software to the newest version and to reconfigure it to moderately limit who has access to make updates to it.
After this is completed, I would like to see a few people who have made a lot of updates to the pages apply to get higher access to make cleaning up faster in case this happens again.
It's a rough job, but it's sometimes hard to combat someone who has 8-10 hour stretches of time on their hands to deliberately cause this much damage. I only wish I had that kind of free time.
I'm the bawss.

OK, the wiki is back up and newly cleaned. I also upgraded to a newer version. I will still be tweaking permissions going forward, but those of you who have been waiting to update your articles can do so now.
I also wanted to extend a special thanks to Cheekay, Hex, and MajorKoopa for working really hard to fight off this idiot.
I'm the bawss.

OK, there's a permission called "Bureaucrat" which lets you edit other people's permissions. So, it seems we need a person or two who can grant people access to make edits on the Wiki. I added a new extension that prevents everyone except explicitly-allowed users to make edits to pages.
