Major spam attack

[EmperorJeramyu]

Honestly, the problem isn't the spam itself, it's the quality.

Seriously, when I hang out with all my other moderator friends, what the hell do I have to talk about when stuff like this happens? That I deleted some preteen's GameFAQs shit? I'd be excommunicated! They're all taking about how they did buffer overuns and shit, and I'm talking about some pansy guy on some forum for some rm2k game.

I get paid for my work too, but not- not for work like this. How the hell am I supposed to feed my family!? I have several wifes, and an army of bastard children, and they need their mice and gruel. Thanks for making my life turn into a slide into alcoholism and depression, you crappy ameuteur spammer.

Here's an illustration I whipped up during deleting posts because THIS GUY SPAMS SO GODDAMN SLOW!

[Fitz Tayo]

I like the result of the first one.

[Telephalsion]

Where did all the sticky topics go?

[War]

into the void of old sbf post and Lu Bu eating baby topics.

[Telephalsion]

No seriously, where d they scurry off to?

[Non-Sequitur]

Jeramyu accidentally deleted them when he was cleaning the forum up.

[Sage Of The Wise]

I go away for 1 week and all this happens. Geez...

When it said "Our message board is once again under attack" I feared I wouldn't have a forum to come back to. Then I see it's a Gamefaqs-esque loser.
First person to invent a way to kill people over the internet gets a butter-biscuit.

And on another note- Hi again.

Come back to mIRC.

Glenn. Touch me. You know you want to.

[voodooKobra]

I see that the spam attack is over.

My friend says that just when he was gonna screw the spammer's computer over, the guy disconnected and never came back on.

[Telephalsion]

Tele, looks like you gave him an idea... or he's doing it to spite you. Either way, it's not very creative. Eh, I'm sure he'll leave eventually.

I told him his spam was crap since it was just random keys. And i told him that it would ahve been beter off if he had written "pie"

Now, I put 200.42.214.178 into my browser and interestingly enough, I got the default page from the /htdocs/ directory in an Apache 1.* installation.

The second IP, 80.249.110.156, offered a download of a file of the text/vnd.wap.wml type. What was even more interesting was that the file I was offered had no name. Now, I checked out the file and I discovered the very sad truth... Its a WAP porn site =/ IF you want to know more, well, go to that IP address on your cell phone.

Now, I ran a traceroute on the first IP... the results:

[OverlordBill]

I need to think of a nickname for you. Now.
