*blinks, looks at her plain six-inch killer claw*

Man...I need new digs....

*damnhooligan* · 10-07-2003, 12:55 AM

I can safely say Something Awful doesn't condone the hacking of websites. (They have enough legal sh*t to deal with) There's just a number of elitist idiot fans who take that stuff way overboard.

No one hacked into her guestbook, but rather was able to implant a pop-up code in their guestbook entry. Unfortunately, her guestbook supports HTML-based entries, so until she deletes that post it'll continue those damned annoying goatse popups.

Total bullsh*t. My condolences.

Whoever's doing that sh*t to Brinatello's site is pathetic low life scum. What total morons.

**HorseTechie** · 10-07-2003, 12:17 PM

*rubs eyes.. looks again*

Damn.... and I *know* Brina. She's one of my TMNT friends from the TMNT mailing lists. She will NOT be pleased when she learns of this. She's already been through a load of RL crap as is. Her main problem right now is that her computer crapped out on her a couple months ago. Her files on the hard drive are probably lost, with only the files on the internet being what she has...

Shyyeeet...

Yeah, I'm a regular on the SA forums and I've actually had a friend be an ALOD (Emi of Brie). I don't have a problem with the ALOD itself, but I don't like it when the goons (forum posters) take over the guestbook. It makes it seem like SA is just a bunch of immature 12 year olds, when really it's among the most intelligent groups of people on the internet.

And you're right, they can say whatever they want about the sites, but Lowtax (who runs SA) does NOT condone hacking or otherwise harming the sites that he features. Actually, planning a forum invasion is a bannable offense due to all the legal threats he's received in the past.

GreenWillow · 10-07-2003, 12:53 PM

~Jeez...poor Brina. As if she hasn't had enough bad luck we have a bunch of Idiot 12-year olds to deal with. Sorry , I have *zero* sympathy for "Something Awful" jerks, or *anyone* who gets his jollies dissing other ppl's stuff much less has an entire *site* dedicated to attacking others. People need to get a life.... Aside from that, at least the pop-ups are something it sounds like Brina could do something about --*if* the poor girl had her computer up and running.

This just really, really, pisses me off...and those of you who know me know I don't get angry easily.....

*Skeletoncrew* · 10-07-2003, 01:16 PM

Well, I honestly can't criticize Something Awful for making fun of websites, God knows I've done it before, but hacking an individual's site is terrible. I can understand hacking the site of some big corporation if you're trying to make a statement against it, but hacking the little guy is just cruel.

Blaze DTGG · 10-07-2003, 01:29 PM

I have been giong to something awful for a long time. I never joined their forums or anything but its things like this that really bother me.. all websites are potential targets and nobody is safe. and thats fine.. but to have someone do that to her site is just wrong.

I dont agree with what was said about her site.. but everyone has a right to their own opinion. but this is just plain wrong

Oh yes.

Lisardo · 10-07-2003, 03:00 PM

OMI! Those A**HOLES! Why would they do soemthing like that to her?!!!! Brina is my bestest friend and she didn't deserve that! She is an excellent writer and if those creeps don't like her work, they can shove it! It's none of their business. Old saying, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all!' Just go about your business. They don't even know her! And top it off poor Brina doesn't have her computer working very well. All she's able to do is connect (dial-up) to check her Juno email account, and her and her sister are both having to use it. They can't go on the web tho. Tho I've already emailed her at her and her sister's shared Juno email address, and boy she will not be happy about this. Tho I did give her my condolences and told her I was sooo pissed, as many other friends of hers are that these creeps would do this to her! AHHHHH, let me at 'em!

**Nturtle** · 10-07-2003, 04:31 PM

I know everybody's angry, but keep the swearing down a notch, even with the auto-censoring, this is a forum designed for fans of a kid's show, so it has to be suitable for kids. thanks.

**Machias Banshee** · 10-07-2003, 07:11 PM

AND...

Please, dont post anything along the lines of..

"Ooh, I'm gonna go hack into that !@#$@#@##'s @#$%$%%$ website and %$^%$#@$$ hack into it and *&^%$#%$#%$ screw him all the *%^$ up!"

We dont want anything to happen to THIS site as a result of childish games on their part...

*ZariusTwo* · 10-07-2003, 07:46 PM

Well it's NOT typical for this sort of behavior to start coming up, there is a Power Rangers message board which ALLOWS that behavior, not a freindly place.

Those fanfics are good MST3K material, I'm not exactly sure why there is such a huge amount of hate going on in this thread, somethinhawful is a HILARIOUS website, take a joke people

*Roseangelo* · 10-07-2003, 07:49 PM

I have access to Brina's account and went and fixed everything. I went and removed all the guestbook links from the mainpage. The Guestbook files are all still there, just currently hidden. Sabrina can put them back when/if she wants to. I also removed all the hacked guestbook entries so that also won't be a problem in the future.

**HorseTechie** · 10-08-2003, 12:24 PM

Yay! Thank you for pulling through for Brina, Rose. I'm sure she'll deeply appreciates your efforts.

*decides to move this thread down into Gen Discussion now*

**Machias Banshee** · 10-08-2003, 01:19 PM

*bows down to Rose*

thank God you did taht. No one should attack someone's site like that...

*Raven* · 10-08-2003, 02:47 PM

hacking has to be the most immature thing on the net. it makes me sick to see such ass holes do somthing like this to a really nice person, who ever did this hacking, I hope there computers blow up while there on it, then have there house taken away.
and i mean that in the nicest way.
