Elernate,an infamous Roblox hacker,one found a vulnerability in Roblox's testing websites and started 'The Roblox 2012 April Fools Incident'.

Hacking

Elernate started by logging in an admins account on SiteTest3 and using the .ROBLOSECURITY he got from the SiteTest3 website and used it to log in to the admins account on the main website. Also, people by the names of Minish and Merely were fighting over Roblox money and its economy. A user then named Caleb244 took over Minish's account and purchased Merely's favourite item-The Domino Crown. Shortly after,both accounts were terminated and Merely would leave Roblox prior to his ban. Soon after,they took over Pheedy's and are17's accounts using the admin panel and were promoted to moderators to unban Minish.^[1] 1dev2,a popular person for creating Welcome to the town of Robloxia was also compromised and his account terminated but his ban was not lifted and his game was uncopylocked.

Assets

They also uploaded the c: face into the avatar shop for 100 robux (roughly $1.25) on the official Roblox account and only Stickmasterluke bought it and anyone else who bought it got an error message. 'hai guize derp' was also uploaded on the Roblox account and it is still accessible on the Roblox website. The c: texture is also saved on the Roblox website aswell. McNoobster also released hacker banners. See below:Hacker Banners
