Forumer and how much it sucks

You should see their support forums right now. It's incredible. Not only are half the forums on server 46 STILL down, but they've started the same thing on like, five more servers. It's a real shitstorm over there.

What the hell made them think trying the same thing on the other servers would create better results?

Because their engineers made it FASTER!

...So that means that peoples' forums are getting fucked up more dynamically and rapidly, I guess.

Apparently, right now, there are three other servers with big enough problems to make a "Fixes still in progress" thread. They plan to do 15 more over the next ten days. Yeah, things are gonna work out just great.

And I can't think of a single community I'd rather forum-hop with.

I wanted to see Mordecai on one... Of course Forumer had to cut mere days before the new one came out.

Not to mention losing that pretty awesome Fallout themed one

Found your forum thru a search.

Glad you guys escaped the fail of FORUMER!

I am using their fail service against them!

for********oke dot forumer dot com

Feel free to stop by and bid them a fond farewell as they set sail on the failboat! And good luck on your new home!

So what did you search to find us?
Also no offense but you come across as really immature and slightly unhinged.
Making your forum look like some kind of conspiracy theorist hideout doesn't help your case any.

Oh, don't mind him, he's probably just Fuzzy Alien trying to nab some of our IP addresses, and if that doesn't make much sense to you, replace the name Fuzzy Alien with Barnabus. Yeah. It's the same person. So much of what you've heard in the past makes sense now, I'm sure.

What gave it away for me... first off, his name has "dong" in it. Classic Fuzzy (by which I mean; more sex-obsessed than Freud, more 2-dimensional than Flatland, and more transparent than the vacuum of space). Secondly, there's only one member. With the hundreds of ticked-off folks on FHQ, surely you would have secured one of them as a member before searching "forumer sucks" and stumbling upon this page. It's just completely fucking retarded, really.

^I just visited Fuzzy IRL this weekend, and that was absolutely uncalled for. Fuzzy is a nice guy, he's not sex-obsessed, and you should be ashamed for accusing someone who has changed from what he used to be of such things.

Why would he want our IP addresses?

Because Riv is paranoid.

This. :v He also doesn't seem to know what a spambot is. What a great admin.

Funny post though, Riv.

Okay so let me get this straight. Someone created a spambot in hopes of getting people to join this forum that exists solely as a "fuck you" to Forumer, which happens to reside on Forumer. While obviously someone who does that isn't probably the sharpest knife in the drawer, doesn't Occam's Razor make it more likely it's just a disgruntled member/user?

Then someone's got a lot of time on their hands to be able to search for a ton of Forumer forums and post that on them. More likely it's a spambot.


I still find it funny that Riv thinks, for some reason, I have a vendetta against Forumer, and through that am somehow trying to "nab" his IP address... where I'm not sure how posting that message would even enable me to accomplish that. Logic a la Riv.

True, but that doesn't explain why someone wants people to join a "Fuck Forumer" Forum that also happens to be on Forumer. It kinda makes no sense. You'd think if someone was either going to use a spambot or canvas the web personally, it'd be because they actually had, I dunno, an alternative.

The way I perceived it, the assumption seemed to be that you (or whoever's work this is) set up a forum that obviously you/they have admin powers on, giving them access to the IP addresses of anyone who registers/posts. Now, why he thinks you/they would want those isn't clear.

There are some pretty insidious things you can do with an IP...

You know... have a look at some [all] of "Barnabus's" posts. You'll be appalled.

A spambot that... specifically targeted our forum? With one post? And lives in the same area of California as you? And goes to the same university as you? Yeah, sounds about right. I'm just making stuff up again. Crazy old man Riv.

You honestly still think that was me? And you're so convinced that you're trying to tell everyone that spambot/user/whatever has the same location as me? :\ Really, Riv?

Obviously, but why? What's the motivation?

He could have a friend there he told about this place but it seems pretty unlikely.

You're denying the source is suspiciously close to you instead of saying something along the lines of "oh, okay, if that's the case it makes sense you'd suspect me, but it's not me, I assure you". Interesting...

Riv, stop making a fool of yourself, honestly. Let your petty grudges go, they're just pissing everyone off.

Spambots target all sorts of forums, I'm part of forums that get targeted all the time. Don't go accusing people you don't particularly like.

Because, frankly, I think Riv is full of shit. There's no way that user just happens to go to "the same university" as me, because it isn't me, I don't give a shit about "nabbing" anyone's precious IP addresses. Riv is just being a lying asshat. I think he inhaled too many fumes in Chem class today.

My, our spambot sure has been busy!

The only way you could have made it more obvious is by mentioning Melo's penis.

Sorry man, but you will just have to face that some people don't like people that you like. If you can't handle it, you don't have to hang out here.
