Title: Hello
Post by: Kiler on April 07, 2004, 10:58:32 PM
I Dark Templar Kiler (later known as just Kiler), came and opened a forum, located at http://op.suddenlaunch.com (http://op.suddenlaunch.com)

Edit aded by CK9: Kiler wasn't the only one who created new forum. Right before I heard that kiler's forum was created I tried to create one, only to learn that it wasjust a fee trial forum. (It isn't imposrtant, but I just want it known that it wasn't only a power-hungry person trying to keep the fans together.)
Edit by OP2Patriot: I had one too, but that does not matter.

That forum went well for about a year or two, until some problems arose.
The first problem was, Kiler promoted and demoted admins and GM's for no good reason. (In other words, he killed off the admins because he wanted, this is known as his "Admin Killing Spree".)
Edit by OP2Patriot: There were two Admin Killing Sprees. There were over 7 admins the first time, and around 6 the second time. Also changing the background of the forum was a pastime of the former Chief Administrator.

Later a second problem occured. Kiler started deleting posts that he thought spoke out against him.
Betaray made a long post about the problems with the administration, and most of the text was censored.
About a week later, the whole thread was deleted.

Finally, there was so much pressure put on Kiler, that he transferred adminship to Xkr25, his supposed "friend" in school, who was the same age as him. (As it turns out now, it appears that he is 18. This has not been fully verified.)
The forum went better for a time, but the people still felt that the noose was still around their neck, because Killer would have an influence on Xkr25.
Edit by OP2Patriot: XKR25 is 14.

Until the next cascade of problems.

One day, it was impossible to log on to the board! The members looked at the members list, and lo-and-behold, Xkr25 had deleted all of the forum members.
The members were enraged.
Conspiracy theories were formed about who did it.

But, at the same time, I and others such as Philip and Martyn thought it over. The forum could be closed for TOS violation, since I was 12 at the time he started it, and the Sudden Launch TOS read that "you must be at least 13 to use the Service."

Also, I thought of a method that could be used to "hijack" the main admin account, therefore giving us full control of the forum. I told Martyn my plan, and how we could exploit a security hole in the forum to change the main admin account's password.

However, it required that Xkr25 would be logged in currently to the forum under the main admin account; and would have to click a link to execute the "rogue" instructions to change his password.

Martyn ended up getting Xkr25 to click this link, and the forum was successfully hijacked.
xfir: Actually, he didn't click a link. I logged him out by a clever little trick of my own: through the counter I hosted.

another edit by CK9: before Xkr25 became an admin, beta attempted to make the forumites aware of Kiler's evils by staging a big leaving. This plan backfired and people said stuff like, "Stop your complaining, get back here and post you wimp."(I'm a bit off, but it was similar) After the problems with Xkr25, Beta and I found an old abandond forum that we could try to conince the forumites to get to. All we needed was somepeople old enough to apply to be the new moderators, people we knew we could trust. Before we begain our search, two things happened. First, we found out that you had to log in every post. Second, the forum was deleted.

But not long after, op.suddenlaunch.com was shut down "due to TOS violations". However, the members managed to stay together long enough to create two forums, this one (forum.outpostuniverse.net), and the OPC (..com)

That was a breif history of my background. Here goes the short bio:

Age: 14
Name: Anonymous
Favorite Game: Counter-Strike

How much of that did you copy out of the How we got this far thread? Also, how many accounts have you had at this forum?
Title: Hello
Post by: Luweeg64 on April 08, 2004, 07:27:05 AM
I remember reading most of that in the How we got here forum, and my guess is many.  And now we're only 60 posts away from from 6666 posts, I believe the end is near, and kiler is the anti-christ sent to destroy the forum.
I play counter strike too,

Kiler, this time don't push it. I can ban you if the need comes.

I already don't appreciate that you copied most, if not all of my post.

Will all of you shu the h#%% up!?  What's past is past.  I knowwhat kiler did was stupid, uncalled for, and a downright abuse of powers, but he still is an Outposter.  Everyone deserves another chance (like x gave me by making me a GM here)

I was a GM for a while at the forums kiler was the root admin for, but I was more of a spammer than a rule enforcer back then.  Anytime betaray and I got on at the same time, look out, it's a spam attack!  :heh:

I've grown up since then, realized that spam is just a nusence (sp?)

Me too Krammy, me too.

Phantom then sits back in his lounge chair, the Gnome on the Rack. "Now will you give me those tickets?"

"No! I'll never join you!"

"Oh Kayy..."

Phantom then turnes the crank another revolution. "Well then, you wont be a gnome for too much longer than."

"Book with travelocity, don't forget your hat!"

"This is going to take a while..."

We should find a way to make an internet beacon that will search out people who have OP2...
Title: Hello
Post by: Phantom on May 29, 2004, 08:19:03 PM
You could make the op2worm that could go through e-mail and if a person runs op2, It will log it on the host computer. lol.

I think that is the only way to do something like that, and I don't really want to get in trouble with the feds, so count me out. lol.
Title: Hello
Post by: CK9 on May 29, 2004, 08:48:57 PM
lol, I think there are other ways... you can make a full OP2 page an run an IP-logging script
Title: Hello

Yah, but that wouldn't nessessarily get people who have the op2 game.
