When there are so many people in the world you'd want to spend the time and effort to prank that you personally know, why do you spend the time hacking some website? Cool

I know there's a rumor that the hacker is really Syd making fun of the Maddox freaks, which might account for the lack of communication with him and Jeebus.

I think he is, because the index file is the only thing that's f'ed.

And who the fuck else would know the assortment of fonts that make up the "SydLexia.com" banner?

If so than Val would have to be in on the joke too.

Not to mention if the hacker hacked Syd's account, he'd know how I'm forwarding the threads. One of the posts to me seemed oblivious of this.

I don't know. No one told me a damn thing. If it's a joke I'm a victim with the rest of you.

Worst. Joke. Ever.
Sereously, whether it was engineered by Syd, or it actually WAS a hacker, this is getting annoying. I do like the banner though.

I guess the reason I might've fallen for it is I don't think Syd would be the kind of person to do pranks like this. Crying

Well, everyone gets stuff wrong. Exept the general media. They're 100% right, all the time.

EDIT, 2 SECONDS LATER: And you shouldn't have left Tebor out. Bad idea.

"Well, everyone gets stuff wrong. Exept the general media. They're 100% right, all the time."

ROFL! Laughing

"EDIT, 2 SECONDS LATER: And if this IS a joke, you shouldn't have left Tebor out. Bad idea."

If he did, it's okay. It's showing that we've set up measures to deal with hackers. Maybe it's like "The Siege" and Syd pulled a false hack to see how we'd deal with the threat. Of course, that means Syd's now going to blow up a bus with old people on it... which wouldn't be cool at all.

I'd think, if it was a hacker, my account would be hacked to shit by now.

Agreed. Mine would be hacked to hell and back too, considering all the shit I gave the "H@X()R". Maybe I need to get some sleep, too. That's probably a major probzzz...

EDIT: I'm keeping the banner.

One last thing: If this is a joke, http://www.sydlexia.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=438 Is a dead giveaway.

That post was refering to the bandwidth, I thought? Did Syd do all this to keep the bandwidth down? There are easier ways!

Nonono, I just meant this

Even if you don't normally check the News section, please read the post that I have linked to below. It contains important information regarding the site and why it may be down temporarily:

because he's mentioning the site might be down. Instead it got hacked, but i'm really not thinking clearly anymore right now. I've had way too much coffee and need sleep.

Well....

If it turns out this was a prank, boy is my face gonna be red. I totally tore into that guy, Syd or not (most of those posts got deleted though), while trying to keep a level head about it at the same time.

I thought initially, when I first saw this yesterday afternoon, "This has to be a prank" but then I was like "No, it couldn't be," and joined the forums for the sake of telling this person that he sucks at life and he picked the wrong site to fuck with.

If it is a prank, good job Syd, it's very convincing, and you fooled everyone.

Come to think of it... I have to wonder if any Maddox fans are old enough to remember New Kids On The Block.

Hmmmm...

But it fits perfectly within the year range of Syd's favorite pop culture....

EDIT: Surely these days it'd be Backstreet Boys or some such nonsense. And hell, even the song loop is rather Syd-esque. Man, I'd hate to start yelling "conspiracy" if it turns out Syd didn't do it, but man. And I forgot that Dr. jeebus hasn't been around either...

EDIT II: The Haddox index page is also "H4X0R3D". Man, I can't even type that without laughing.

EDIT³: And yet, even the Haddox stuff still kinda sounded like Syd. And these really don't.

HEY! Anybody remember Syd's last news post? Something along the lines of "if all goes well, there may be some new content by the end of the week. And if all doesn't go well, maybe then, too." SHENANIGANS?!

I agree with you, it would be easy for Syd to change this stuff, but there's still a chance that it was "H@X0R3D", because script programs are so easy to run and maddox has some really stupid fans.
