Dear ESF Fan Base,
This is Cucumba, speaking on behalf of the ESF Forum staff. You have recieved an email, which was created by the coding minions, who were responsible for maliciously attacking our site, defacing both it and the forums. During this raid, or perhaps on a seperate security breach, Minion stole a full copy of our forums, a copy of the ESF 1.3 Beta, and as I understand it, a full copy of the source code for ESF.
They have threatened previously to release 1.3, and have now done so, and are attempting to claim that they have been handed this material. Sadly, this is not the case. The 1.3 available for download for them is buggy, and is not he final product we intend to release. We will continue to work on, and release 1.3 in our own time.
The ESF team has not retired, nor are they planning on handing the source code out to other "select groups" (I assure you, Kurt and his group would be dead last for such priveleges) despite claims to the contrary.
If you wish to continue to show your support for ESF, do not download MSF, do not run MSF servers, and do not spread any links you may run across.
Further, there is the chance that MSF may contain altered code that will allow minion to take control of your system, or hijack your steam accounts and steal your steam CD keys. For your own safety, do not run and install this game.
Sincerely,
Rich "Cucumba" Hernandez
