Dear Community,

First of all, I would like to congratulate the Leaked Community on its four-year anniversary. We have many more meaningful years ahead of us.

Some of you may have noticed that there has been almost no progress in terms of technology over the past two years. The reason for this is quite simple:

Our forum software and technical infrastructure have become outdated, dating back to four years ago. Neither the software nor the plugins have been properly maintained - in short, they have been neglected.

Today, I attempted to initiate upgrades but quickly realized that our current forum software no longer supports this version.

The Next Steps​

If we were to update everything to the latest version all at once, it would not be a smooth transition. Neither the plugins nor the software itself, including the server infrastructure, would function without issues. Even our current forum design would not survive the upgrade.

For this reason, I have decided to perform the upgrade step by step on a separate, more modern server. This way, you won't experience any disruptions once the switch is completed and thoroughly tested.

The upgrade will include:
  • A new payment gateway for crypto transactions related to upgrades.
  • Updating the forum software and plugins to the latest version.
  • Upgrading the server infrastructure to a modern standard.
I am explicitly sharing this because this upgrade is necessary! At this point, we have no other choice, as our current server and software have become a growing risk.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Are you looking for any help with the upgrade process? I do backend dev work full time, and I use the site quite a bit, so I wouldn't mind contributing if it'd be helpful.
