HackThisSite Is Growing!
With more ideas and more changes comes the need to expand and grow. Given that, we just purchased another server: Dual Quad-Core Xeon 2.8GHz, 16GB PC3200 RAM, and Dual 1TB RAID-1 Drives. We're also going virtual, since previously we ran everything on FreeBSD Jails. Now, we'll be running Debian 5 utilizing the KVM Hypervisor to allow us to fully utilize any operating systems we require, including FreeBSD (and possibly even Windows Server 2008 for some new missions!).
For those who question why an increase is necessary: Our current box has hit its peak capability and capacity. Expansion is necessary for us to add any more server-intensive features (Asterisk PBX, Video Uploads, HTS Radio, etc.).
For those who question how we can afford the increase: You! Those of you who support us and our advertisers made this possible! We thank each and every one of you sincerely, and continually ask for your support by globally allowing HackThisSite.org on all advertisement and script-blocking browser plugins, and supporting those who support us.
Look forward to bigger, badder, better things soon!

Happy Holidays
HackThisSite would like to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season. We hope your family doesn't irritate you too much, and most of the crap you receive can be returned or auctioned on eBay. If not, then your life sucks and we are sorry.
Happy Holidays! :D
Edit: Much like the Pink April Fool's theme from this year, we will be leaving this theme available for use if people want it.

Fixes/Staff Call!
Forum Functionality: Everything is working as it should be. Please post any new bugs (not debug notices!) Thanks! ~Silent-Shadow
Comment Functionality: Have you noticed comments on your profile? After months of multiple issues with the comment system, we FINALLY got it working! Have fun with it.
Article Apostrophes: Fixed!
Mission Redirect: There was an issue where Basic 11 would redirect to Basic 12 which doesn't exist. That is fixed!
Application 18: After several hours, Silent-Shadow and NightQuest worked together through many debugging and test trial moments to finally discover the root cause of the App 18 checker malfunction. Fixed! However, we are working on fixing App 18 itself to use the new code to work as originally intended...
Future Staff Members: We are currently looking for new moderators AND developers to work on HTS! Think you have what it takes? Please visit HERE for more information and apply now!

HTSv4 Released!
Edit: April Fools. :D
Also, The Pink skin is still available in the Skin Chooser.
The rumors are true! We have finished HackThisSite v4, after 4.5 years of development! The new and improved HackThisSite is now in use as of today.
Presenting: HackThisSite Pink!
After four years, we finally managed to make HackThisSite vagina-pink. It took a lot of effort, way too much drama, tons of rewriting code (HTML+CSS), and over 9000 hours in MS Paint, but we finally did it!
We hope you guys like the changes!
