They missed out on a $77 order I placed today, because I had no idea when they'd be back up.

Someone forgot to patch the forum, which was apparantly available since January. So through that whole time, the forum was exploitable. Something like that.

LOL I thought that too, cause at first there was a message that said the board would be back up at 12am, and it was about 12 pm my time when it went down.

I don't know who it was, but let me say I'm not exactly comfortable with my nationality right now.

At least something good might come from all this ;)

Who cares? If the admins are seriously contemplating pressing charges over a hackjob, then I'm sorry to say I might have to stop posting here. Especially considering the board was supposed to be updated a few months ago as to protect against attacks like this.

As a Nintendo fan...but a Canadian (and own an Xbox :p) :D I'm pretty disgusted with how amateur some posters can be.

I wonder how old the dude was, I always wonder that when reading some suspicious replies :lol

Handhelds do very well. Cube performance is laughable, but the games are great. There you go. No casual gamer even knows about cubes so I imagine there is a higher % of REALLY hardcore nintendo fans. Which would help explain this attack. (Damnit, who was it!)

I'm midly confident in the fact that Boogie-oogie(the poster a few posts up) has a crush on me. Well, Boogie, I'm strictly Suerte property.

Sorry, chap.

I was watching America's Funniest Home Videos with Saget last night and every time I saw him, everyone calling Boogie a look alike came to mind
