I know what you are all going to say: “TMyApp … WHAT HAPPENED?”
As some of you recall, a group of HACKERS have taken over SFO back in 2022 with our ex-staffer TotalReincarnation being their leader. The remaining Sysops of SFO held an EMERGENCY MEETING, and it was decided that the ONLY course of action we could take, was to SHUT DOWN the SFO AUTH server (as means of slowing down the hacker efforts).
If it was up to me, the old SFO website would remain online FOREVER (along with ALL of its news posts, including the very last news post that I wrote myself to explain the reasons for the community’s end). But unfortunately, right around the time of all of these HACKER attacks, my mom has fallen extremely ill with a serious infection (which forced me to spend a few weeks at the hospital). And by the time my mom got better, and we left the hospital, during some of the WORST times of my life, an unknown hacker broke into the web-host account of SFO, and destroyed EVERYTHING we had. In a true SFO fashion, NO backups were made (specifically: NO database backups of our old website) … so the ugliness that was seen on our domain for the last little while, that is what the hackers left behind. Very few people had access to our web-hosting package, and very few people were capable of breaking-in and destroying everything. Alas, it is what it is.
And to add fuel to the fire, earlier this year in 2025 I was personally diagnosed with an illness that required me to spend 2 weeks in bed on antibiotics. To this day, I am still recovering from this experience. On a positive note, during this ordeal (and even now) I have spent most of my free time studying and reading The Holy Bible (KJV).
As time went on, I began to recover and feel better, and earlier this year, I received ANONYMOUS information from SOMEONE in what was left of the SFO community with info that TotalReincarnation and BlockAttack are now BOTH IN JAIL! And remembering the lessons from Deuteronomy 28:7, I felt that Our Lord could be showing us that NOW could be the RIGHT TIME for a 2026 SFO Revival!
Personally, I have NOT touched anything SFO related after I made that final news post many moons ago, but, given what has happened (and the significance of this “sign from above”) I am willing to spend whatever FREE time I can find, and put it towards the Revival of SFO! … and when we are talking about a “Revival”, we are talking about bringing back EVERYTHING! All of the Old In-Game Accounts! All of the old In-Game Colors! And ALL of the old perks and in-game features that everyone has enjoyed over the years, including TMC! EVERYTYING IS COMING BACK THE WAY IT WAS! WITH YOUR OLD LOGIN/PASS AND PERKS!
The first step in our 2026 Revival Journey is to BRING BACK THE OLD AUTH SERVER! Unfortunately it will take quite a few hours to integrate the old Auth with the new website that I am currently trying to build (all by myself) so a BRAND NEW “SFO 2026 Revival Dream Goal” has been created! If there is still enough of our community left around to support this revival with their FIVERS, then we may be able to complete the 2026 Revival prior to the currently projected date of February 2026. If however, there is NOT enough players left to support our cause, then I will myself, personally, add time and resources towards the Revival Dream Goal each and every month, to make sure that the February 2026 Release Deadline is COMPLETED NO MATTER WHAT!
As it stands, the SFO community consists of 1 active Sysop staff member (aka: myself) which of course slows down the release of our 2026 Revival Dream Goal even more. We are currently in a DESPARATE need for ACTIVE SFO SYSOPS! If you think that YOU or someone you know would be PERFECT for a position of an SFO Sysop, then SEND THEM THE FOLLOWING SYSOP RECRUITMENT INFORMATION LINK: (ACTUAL LINK COMING SOON, STAY TUNED)
Lastly, in the recent years, brand-new technologies have developed which allow for Windows 98 to run inside the web-browser. With this new tech, we could re-compile our old SFO into a Windows 98 executable, which would run inside the browser AND offer us the much-needed protection from the hackers and the memory-editors! Likewise, a brand new “Windows 98 Dream Goal” has been created, and a LOT MORE DETAILED INFO will be posted in the upcoming days explaining everything! So STAY TUNED!
With our enemies safely behind bars, let us press forward just like we always do … because DREAMS DON’T DIE!
