Gee: No offence, but your more Nieve than me! :D. People do bad things all the time... man, people even appear not to have conceances... A lot of people are real evil bastards. I know it's hard to think that someone can ruin someones life and not feel guilty for it (I'm still trying to get over these things) but these people do exist... and in a large proportion too.

Don't get me wrong, that was not meant offensively in any way. I have been and still am quite naive. I always used to think that everyoine felt guilty for doing bad things... but some people people don't. Sometimes I think that i'm the only person with a conceance...

What relevence doies this have with hackers? Quite a bit actually, bewcause "real" hackers create viruses than can totally trash peoples computeers and cause lots of hassle and money. This can effect peoples lives and evenb careeres. So, some really rich guy goes bancrupt becauyse some dumb assed ingnorant hacker develops a super virus... that hacker has no idea of cause and effect... or maybe they did and they jkust love to ruin peoples lives... the huma conceance and emotions are far more complex than most people realise... yet people go around destroying peoples lives... yet they fail to realise that their lives too can be destroyed!

un-root, the hacker wrote:un-root - un-root - WE are at war. A quiet war in our classrooms, because of a priveliged government so medocre that the plutocracy, having its front a [disfarado] tyrant of a President who became a leader of the rotten elite of maggots. un-root crew: for a better world.

:shock:

the original text.
un-root - O pas est em guerra. Uma guerra silenciosa de classes, por causa de um governo medocre que priveligia a plutocracia, tendo a sua frente um tirano disfarado de Presidente que se tornou lider de uma elite podre e sanguessuga. un-root crew por um mundo melhor
obviously this is politically motivated. they are protesting against the iraq war and the president of portugal... what did he do?

It looks like a person (or group) from Brazil. I'm still getting the occasional IP address from Brazil showing up in my logs trying to make use of the highlight exploit.

Heh.

You know what's funny, I thought "Hey, we haven't seen Daniel in a while, not since that crazy business with him and a certain site in the Doom community. Maybe he's wreaking vengeance against us now."

I thought that it was a ludicrous notion with absolutely no basis in reality.

But wasn't Daniel from Brazil?

Yes, he was. I don't think he would do this though. Of course, we all liked him here. but doomworld hated his guts. wouldn't he have attacked THEM instead of finding an "exploit"?

BTW, randy, what files were they hosting?

They IP banned him so it could be hard for him to reach Doomworld...

(and he already did something very stupid there...)

What was it that he did? Was it the e-mail harassment scandal? Why did he start doing that?

Some hacker apparently took zdoom.org down along with his intelligence :lol: For several days. Personally, I'd punch him in the face.

About Germans as memebers, I EXTREMELY doubt that was the reason, but did you know there are some nazis who are German?

The only nazi I know is Doom (and he openly admits it too... so that wasn't an offense). IIRC, Doom is not German... I think he's canadian... but I am probably wrong :D.

To be honest, I havn't met one German Nazi... so AFAIC, that is bullshit.

Okay! In 193- something Hitler went insane! Then in 193- something else, his insanity caused a big war! That's were all the big adult people go out and argue, but then they blow each other up if they can't agree! Then in 1945 Hitler shot himself!

:lol:
Okay, well, here's something that really happened:

Then somewhere between 1990 and 2004, some retards made a website telling of the crackpot theory that Jesus is Hitler! And one of their proof was "Hitler and Jesus were never seen together"
