NOW I AM REALLY IRKED!

#1 Postby GalvestonDuck » Thu Jul 15, 2004 8:45 am

These freaking board wars have GOT TO STOP! It's nothing but childish BS going back and forth with:

"Well, why don't you tell them about the time you...!"
"No, stop lying. Why don't you tell everybody about how you...!"
"You're the liar...and the thief...and the hacker!"
"No, you are!"
"You are!"
"I have a PM as proof!"
"Okay, big shot, show me your proof!"
"No, don't wanna!"
"Brat!"

back and forth like two little kindergarteners on a freaking playground! I can't get over how people seem to have nothing better to do than to log in and berate each other. Don't these people have hobbies? For crying out loud, raise hamsters, sell stuff on Ebay, or weave bubble gum wrapper necklaces! Do something CONSTRUCTIVE with your time! "Idle hands are the devil's workshop" is what they say. And I believe it.

The reason why I'm pi$$ed about it today -- MY EMAIL HAS BEEN HACKED AND I CAN'T BLOODY GET SIGNED IN NOW! The same bloody email I've had since I got on this island. Whoever did it changed the information that I need to enter in order to get the password reset.

Guess I should blame myself to some point. I signed on to a couple of those other boards so I could read and try to understand the whole background of what the heck was going on. When I did so, I used a secondary email addy -- the one I use when I have to give a legitimate email address so that I can reply to a confirmation email for stuff like that -- but not my main email address. So, for that, I am thankful. If someone dares to hack my main addy, I can call my ISP and get everything fixed. Plus, they'll be bored out of their gourd because I get more email at work than I do at home. And anybody even thinks of screwing with my work addy is gonna have hell to pay!

I should have known better than to have anything to do with those other boards, even if it was just to read them. Whoever did this didn't cause me too much grief because it's just junk mail and spam that they're gonna have access to. But I have to wonder who else's email and/or websites they're going to hack. I noticed the S2K board go down for a short time last night. Not sure if that was a server problem or an attack.

I just can't believe some people are so dang power-hungry and childish that they think this makes them a big person. Oooh, look what I can do! Yeah, good for you, oh wow, I'm amazed. :roll: Now, do something useful and go hack al-Jazeera or some other al-spithead website for your country.

And then, go do your homework, get a bath, and go to bed.

Sorry they hacked you. I hate those SOBs. They're the type of people who have to hide behind a computer screen to do/say anything. I say come deal with me face to face and lets see how big they are then. What losers. Sorry again Duckie.

There was an attack on the server last night. They did not get into our site as far as I know.

You are so right Duckie!!! The ones screaming the loudest are the ones doing all the BS!!!!! :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: Everyone else moved on from the BS LONG AGO!!!!! or at least are doing their best to. Sometimes it is difficult to let those personal attacks go.

Seems that sites could have ANTI-hacking systems installed.

Duckie, sorry to hear that happened to you. I can only imagine how mad you are about that. And you are correct when you say all the board wars need to stop. It's a rehash of the same thing over and over and over. Time to move on to the Tropics....a nice lil' tropical storm would be nice about now!

It was a different email addy. The one that got hacked was dukeaficionado@yahoo.com, which I'd had for years. The Wx site spam came to my DSL addy, which used to be linked on here but I took it off.
