WoWinsider Helping?

[Superthrust]

If anyone read's wowinsider, there have been some stories over the past week that involve them talking about scamming and phishing and all.

Sure, they are giving out wrong information, but something has to be done...Can't we target them or something and screw them over? They are not only getting out of hand but annoying as well.

This is relevant to my interests. do something to make it slow as hell

[Superthrust]

not only that...im not talking a DDOS...though, would be fun. I am talking of a full scale operation, to attack / scam / hack / phish these tools at WoWinsider. They think they can just spread their cheeks and let their rays of sunshine flow into people's minds allowing them to be immune to scamming, yet they have no idea how stuff is done and what they are getting into.

[Ryin]

yea, im thinking it would be quite difficult because as soon as one person gets scammed/hacked etc etc from something on the site, it will most likely be known very fast.

[Superthrust]

Well, not really...if we can get at least ONE PERSON from the staff of that website, it will be a GOOD fair warning to leave us alone and stay out of the scammer's business / way.

Maybe we should ask 4chan and /b/ to do a raid...

[susy]

Should we longcat or LOIC them?

Oh also remember, anon is not your personal legion, they only stand up to defend their interests, unless we can fool them somehow.

[Superthrust]

Yeha, in know all about anon. Personal Army, a group of "anons", are people who will defend anything that seems lulz worthy.

Fooling them is pointless, since i know a LOT of /b/tards play wow. So, out of the whole percentile that plays, since they are /b/tards, im sure alot of them scam and such too. Even if its ninja'ing, they still would defend it.

Also, the LOIC works if ALOT of people do it at the same time. Not just one, but one thousand...lol, actually alot more than a thousand prolly.

[Ryin]

I like where this is going ^^

This isn't lulz worthy at all, just pathetic crying from you.

[Superthrust]

No, not pathetic crying. But, even anyone with common sense knows that their posts and crappy propaganda stands in the way of everything that MMOwned has to stand for. So, by talking bad of my proposition, you support the idiots.

As for the attack. Planning will need to happen. Lulz worthy by hacking their website and changing it to our liking. Lulz worthy by phishing their accounts or scamming the editors.

If we can get enough of A+ people on this, we will be victorious and everyone will soon see that scamming cannot be stopped.

Kinda what happened to drawball two?
Bit its admin contacted FBI, we dont want that.

I am sorry for the problems.

Recently, while I was out of town, my servers were compromised by a terrorist cult called e-Baum. A web search suggests that this terrorist cult attacks other sites on a regular basis. It was arguably nice of e-Baum to only deface my site with a cute animation, but it was still a crime for them to hack into my servers. Accordingly, I have turned over all access logs to the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security.

[Superthrust]

Cyber Terrorism is mainly directed and enforced to people who are stupid enough to not use proxies and steal the account info and "do other things" with it as well. Defacing a website that will obviously have backups or anything, isn't bad.

If they dont have backups, it deserves to be messed up.

[Superthrust]

its funny...i was posting on WoWinsider today, and someone decided to side with them...from here...someone is playing both sides.

****ing worthless excuse for a mmowned user.

[Korked]

Can't we just spam the shit out of them until the server crashes?

[opposite]

IMHO just let it blow over. Just think about the probable reaction from the WoWinsider folks and the general MMORPG community at large. A direct "attack" on one of these sites trying to intimidate or scare them into not messing with scammers and phishers will have the opposite effect.

In short, obscurity is something we should labor towards. Hacking, spamming or any of the other things proposed here imho directly chip away at the obscurity which shrouds us right now. Here you have one person posting about one hacker and maybe a few thousand (out of 10+ million) people reading it- after your little engagement I promise there will be dozens of people posting causing many many more people reading and being aware.
