ExileMod

ExileMod operates a gaming forum for the Exile Mod, a modification for the ARMA series, providing a platform for users to discuss mods, share activation keys, exchange troubleshooting tips, and access community resources. The forum runs on WordPress software and is based in Germany. It serves the international Exile Mod player community, offering account registration, private messaging, and file sharing. The forum is accessible under the domain exilemod.com, which serves as its primary online presence.

Prior to the August 2016 security incident, the forum hosted nearly 12,000 registered user accounts, each storing usernames, email addresses, encrypted passwords, and game activation keys. The breach also exposed over 8,000 Steam profile links associated with members, although those links did not compromise Steam accounts themselves. These figures illustrate the forum’s reach within the niche gaming mod scene at that time.

The site’s specialization lies in its focus on the Exile Mod, distinguishing it from broader gaming forums by concentrating on a single modification’s ecosystem, including custom server administration, mission scripting, and mod‑specific content. Its use of WordPress with PHP‑hashed password storage reflects a common but specific technical setup for community‑driven gaming sites. No further structural details such as parent company or ownership are publicly disclosed in the available sources.
