I have a curiosity about this kind of thing

Eclipse forums is 'hacked', a system-wide message is added so that going to any forum page gives you this message instead.

This is the third time I have seen it happen, twice with rude messages and once with 'Brb'. Over a few months.

Guessing either a real flaw in the security of vBulletin or they have misplaced trust in an admin or an admin password has been compromised.

Just curious :(
