Oh shit, I smell a fight.

We PM'd you about it, then posted in the Wiki thread in this section about the problems we were incurring. We also posted that we NEEDED a notable reason to have a wiki page.
According to Wikipedia Hackforums.net is not notable enough to have a wiki.

Please calm down, all we need is an award with a source to prove it and we'll get to keep the article.

They want awards/achievements?
http://www.mybb.com/donation-drive -> Omni got that price for the domain.
https://hackforums.net -> Uh duh? Biggest myBB forum ever.
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=hack -> Should be the 4th result for the word "hack" and the first for "hacking forum"

And how are we gonna get this?

I'm sure if Omni pulls a bit of strings he can get myBB.com to give him an award :P

Didn't Omni used to have a "HAckTopSites.Com" Link in the footer? With HF as #1 (Of course, he owned the site I believe, but w/e)

It needs to be an award from a notable organization or publication.
* - The Elite - May 15, 2010
Honestly, we can pull of around 2 awards easily, this is one of the biggest maybe even THE BIGGEST MyBB forum there is, isn't there?

Basically, here is what happened;
Lunagron and I worked along the guidelines slowly to make sure it appeared legitimately, sourcing, looking up proper context, etc. He had to go, and I had to go.
We both came back to Vandalism, followed by Drmies editting everything away. As there were edits in progress (due to constant vandalism), we couldn't undo it and had to c&p it back. Then we went to Drmies asking him to stop while we fix it, and he got the admin to come into it and bring the award up (which we had been trying to find.)

Wouldn't work. It has to be a significant award by a notable organization or program.
