Feedback: Statement on recent DDos Attacks

[Siu3d]

So, instead of contacting the proper authorities and having this disgusting CP spamming fuck prosecuted

With what details? What are we going to give them? Not supporting what we did at all but still.

What Mizled posted up above would be a good start.

Totally agree. Don't negotiate, fight back. Fight back hard.

you want to cooperate with them.

Hahahaha. No. I would rather have just let the DDoS happen than give in. I would rather this site burn to the ground than give in. But again, Idio tried to preserve the site the only way he knew how.

If you have any beef with anyone, let it be me.

Then, get rid of that thread. I can't believe you guys not only let someone bully you into doing what they wanted, but caved so unbelievably easily. Like I said before, if you don't want to do anything about the people who posted those pictures that's fine. That's your choice and I can't say that I'm inclined to make a move to do anything myself, so I can't hold that against you.

However, what leaves me so aghast is the fact that you let these sick creeps do this - then, even worse - engaged them in dialogue followed by, need I say it again? EVEN WORSE - doing exactly what they fucking wanted.

It honestly makes me sick to my stomach that a human being could be so weak and mewling. I'm stunned. I had nothing against either of you two when I joined this site and even, dare I say it, thought it was kind of nice that you guys accommodated all of us the way you did. I thought that was nice. Then, you did this and it makes me feel disgusted, ashamed and disappointed that I ever had anything nice to say about either of you in the first place.

Shame on both of you. I've never been so appalled by human weakness over the internet.

The problem is that your new users are seen as a commodity by that (other) site.

Resist.

• Leave the ransom thread in you Bad Ideas forum.
• Move all other threads out of bad ideas into a new forum with the same concept, but a different name (irresponsible activities, how 2 crime, whatever..)
• Make the original bad ideas forum "invite only".
• Profit.

[fanglekai]

why the fuck haven't you reported them to the authorities? FUCKING REPORT THEM. CP is FUCKING DISGUSTING AND HIGHLY ILLEGAL AND WRONG. Get their IP addresses. Get their emails. Get all the info you can on them and forward it on to people will look into it. File complaints. DO something.

And erase their thread. Fuck them.

[Idiosyncrasy]

Thank you all for your feedback.  Unlike several other communities, we listen to our people.  I have listened to what you have to say, come to my senses, removed the offending thread, and banned the offending user.  I'm not sure how long it will be before something, if anything, happens, but we will take that as it comes.  As stated before, this was solely my decision and I take full accountability for it.  Arnox was 100% against this decision, but he respected my wishes and allowed me to carry out this action.

I apologize for making a mockery of everything that we stand for.  I allowed complacency to cloud my judgment and made a poor decision that really effected this site and the community.  I hope I have not caused any irrepairable damage to the community.  I was going to renounce my own modship, but I would like to see this through to the end if you all will have me.  I will not quit on you if you don't quit on me.

Again, the decision to negotiate with a terrorist was the decision of my own and in no way reflects the overall opinion and vision of the site or of Arnox.  The Sanctuary has zero tolerance for any and all attacks against it, and especially against the posting of illegalities such as CP.  I hope we can regain your trust, and that you can continue enjoying The Sanctuary.

All site rules still apply.  Please do not allow my previous actions to represent precedent.  All rules will be upheld and proper action will be taken accordingly.  The Sanctuary will not be bullied into submission, and we will not promote something we do not believe.

Thank you again for all your honesty and feedback.  I admit I am not always right (probably quite the contrary), and I am proud of you all for standing up.

You can hold me to my word, before this weekend is over these fuckers will get what they deserve. DDoS is one thing, every scriptkiddie with a few bucks allowance can rent a DDoS Service but spamming CP is more than crossing the line.
Playing big bad hacker while your own shit is as insecure as possible is never a wise move

It is sooooo good to hear it.

I'll be hitting you up, I got yr PM.

[equanimity]

Cool.

[millionsofdeadcats]

Hey idiosyncracy, everyone makes mistakes, no need to resign.

Damn, ya'll niggas need to cool your fuckin' jets.

It doesn't matter that we're doing "what they want." They're fucking morons and what they want will amount to nothing.

All they've done is let us organize our retribution.

We're totseans...we still live by the rules of the wild west of the internet.

[constantinople]

Can we just all chill the fuck out and start posting again? Don't make me actually start doing stuff.

[constantinople]

Actually, this was something I disagreed with doing HEAVILY but by the time I had learned what was going on, Idio had already spent a lot of his time negotiating with this turd for us and I didn't want to throw that all away. Especially when I respect Idio an awful lot. So, I let it happen, much to my chagrin.

Trust me guys. The only reason why I allow that stupid thread to stay stickied is out of respect for him and nothing else. So please, go easy on him. He doesn't really deserve to be involved in this mess in the first place. He should be busy enjoying his life instead of worrying about how this is going to get fixed.

Do you still have the chat-logs from talking to these motherfuckers? Why  should we not be passing out as much of their information to the community as possible?

I am impressed. Thanks for finally realizing what was best for your site, guys. For what it's worth, I appreciate that a lot. I will continue to post here, even though I never said that I wouldn't. It takes a big person to admit they're wrong and an even bigger person to take steps towards amending said wrong. I have nothing but respect for both of you, now.
