What had happened was hacker(s)? Breached the roblox system, and took control of minish's account. Minish is a infamous exploiter, so his account was an easy target to give the unbelievable amounts of robux to.
After which Merely had his domino crown sold to the one and only hacked Minish, causing him to kind of go insane, and donate all of his robux away because of it.
After all the april fools day fingers were pointed, They began hacking the banners, spamming random things, at first somewhat believable, but then absurd. We were too blinded by the fact that it was aprils fools day that we didnt get suspicious.
Boy were we wrong.
Sometime during the ruckus of the banners, a TON of extremely rare limiteds were tossed out. At first we thought "to repair the economy" but then they simply got insane, as only a total of about 120 people got one.
But then...
Things went down on the forums, Pheedy had an admin badge, and so did Are17!
... but not the real mods...?
It had seemed that all mods have lost their admin badges, but all administrators remains admins. Soon after Pheedy posted a attack thread against Merely which included profanity. Remember that Pheedy had still had a mod badge, so he pinned the post.
This is where some people started to open their eyes.
A mod would never swear just as a joke. Never.
Soon after Chros no trading thread and Reeesemcblox Rules thread turned into a profanity ridden messages. I would go into detail, but I think its best kept at this.
Soon after the ROBLOX website was shut down for the rest of the night.
Not to be opened back up until just now. |

Wow we were definantly wrong I thought it was April Fools intul the end. |

Good job, that is the full story.
Also, I can agree with the part on why the site got exploited on April Fool's day.
It was exploited on April Fool's day so the hackers could do whatever they wanted to the site without raising suspicion, because users would think it was the moderators joking around.
BUT..
The problem with this whole operation was that the exploiters did little to cover their tracks, they gave to much of theirselves away and that is why we could uncover who and why they exploited the site and the post with moderator's using inapropriate languange definately gave the exploiter's away.
Hopefully this all clears up and the Admins can solve this and we can all get back to enjoying roblox.

When posting stuff like this, try to stick to only the facts. You have a lot of unconfirmed information/rumors in there. |

Well whatever happened, roblox should step up and explain, instead of leaving us all in the dark. Its kind of obvious they were taken over but most likely they wont ever admit it. |

Also this is from the ROBLOX site http://whatshotinlmad.blogspot.ca/2012/04/april-fools-or-is-roblox-economy.html |
