MuggleNet gets "pwned"
MuggleNet gets At approximately 7pm on January 2nd, a team of sexually frustrated men (hackers) penetrated MuggleNet's defenses, bravely fighting off Damon's armies of killer dragons and ninjas to breach our servers. The invaders were driven off, however, and the site has been restored.

We apologize for the interruption, and will now continue with our regular business of not messing in other people's business.

Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

tiassa, I thought you werent talking to me and all or something? can you keep that up? an ignorant reply to a reasonal complaint =/= pwnage.


Posted by tiassa Jan 7th 2008

hmm funny how some people don't understant the difference between talking TO sombody and talking ABOUT somebody...


Posted by marisa91 Jan 7th 2008

hahaaa yeh i saw that. oh come on grindz it was funny. tiassa was that u yesterday who was like, 'um, anyone who knows grindz at all know he has no rite to call others a hypocrite'? tht was funny too. anyway.... yeh actually what we do is we put together groups and then u have to do an audition with ur group for th spring concert. im not big on jazz but my group has all these jazz songs we wanna try, and im trying to find them online. i found caravan and autumn leaves, ther pretty cool. but theres on that started w/ a 'b'... i think it was bird-something.... and another the name was just two numbers..... any ideas?


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

you have posted about me what, 4 times? you obviously want a reaction from me. btw, kind of looks like youre talking to me: "As someone who has been on the comment board for a while and ran into you before Grnd3lW4Ld I would think twice before calling Emerson a hypocrite. Then again that might ruin the meaning of the word..."


Posted by treybunney Jan 7th 2008

what r u guys arguing about.


Posted by tiassa Jan 7th 2008

Actually I am the only one of my frinds who isnt into jazz. Is "sing sing sing" from PoA soundtrack jazz? I think it is. http://www.youtube.com/wa tch?v=QTRVmfky7GU this is a youtube vid with it. Its about the only jazz I hear I don't know why.


Posted by marisa91 Jan 7th 2008

yeh!!! yeh i heard that song somewhere else.... prolly from one of my band friends and i was like thats the harry potter song that lupin plays in DADA class lol. haha. ah thts ok... heyy bunney u know anything about jazz? grinds, (even tho ur a lil mad rite now)?


Posted by lost_diadem Jan 7th 2008

Yay Mugglenet!!! I love it how that idiot got pwnd on the Wall of Shame! What a moron... And the best part is that he thinks he's right.


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

nah, did a bit with it in music class but thats all lol. youre in a band?


Posted by tiassa Jan 7th 2008

oh and it doesnt have lyrics don't know if thats ok. This and The Breaking of the Fellowship from the LOTR soundtrack are about the only lyricless songs I like. Oh and the SW soundtrack...umm yeah there is a pattren here...Hey treybunney!Someone's crancky...can understand why...


Posted by lost_diadem Jan 7th 2008

Oh hey the idiot's on now! So could you please tell me why the crap you stand up for hackers?


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

lost_diadem, you are obviously just as ignorant and generalize about hackers just as much as emerson. next time you choose to insult something, try to know something about it besides what youre fed by the media and bitter website owners.


Posted by marisa91 Jan 7th 2008

OK um its ok when the cheesecakians make fun of grindz but hes my friend and that first comment frum lost_diadem was just mean!!!!!!!!!!! and yeh, im in my skool band, and i feel so stoopid in that class cuz everyones like suuuper music savvy and they know all these random jazz songs and old rock bands that even i don know, and i always thought i was smart when it came to music. my dreams are being shattered lol......


Posted by tiassa Jan 7th 2008

lost_diadem, I think his answer was pretty clear*crack a rib*I thought the part about the bitternece was the best. you?


Posted by lost_diadem Jan 7th 2008

Actually, being that I did go to kindergarden, I know what a hacker is and what they do to innocent webmasters and their sites. I don't understand why you would stand up for them when they tried to ruin a site that you obviously like seeing that you regularly comment on these news posts. I'm not saying that these hackers are evil, but I'm not seeing why you would ever say that it is ok for someone to hack a site. Ruining something that others enjoy is just plain wrong. How do you not get that?

Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

tiassa, stop trying to cause drama and ill ignore you. thats cool marisa. i know what you mean lol. 2 years ago i got the singer from pink floyds name rong and a kid flipped out at me.


Posted by lilbecky8 Jan 7th 2008

why would you defend people that attack someone else's website? Thats like defending people who spray graffit on buildings or key people's cars. Its not their property, they dont have a right to destroy someone else's work.


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

where did you see me defending people who attack others websites?


Posted by tiassa Jan 7th 2008

BECKY!You're Back!!


Posted by member_of_SPEW Jan 7th 2008

hi cheesecakes, let's all stop beating up on eachother, please, or we might make the wall of shame AGAIN. grinds, could you explain what you meant by defending hackers? i'm fairly sure I have an idea what you meant (and agree with it, maybe), but not quite.


Posted by lost_diadem Jan 7th 2008

Grnd3lW4Ld, I think you are the one that should know and actually understand a story before you decide to defend it. I'm pretty sure Emerson was thrilled to hear you support the people who try to trash his site. No wonder he put you on the Wall of Shame...


Posted by KaitlinM Jan 7th 2008

ok, deep breaths people. take a bite pf cheesecake. chew slowly.


Posted by marisa91 Jan 7th 2008

hi becky =] ok so... i was wandering around th internet wen MN was down, and frum wat i understand, the g00ns arent really hackers, theyre just a bunch of kids who try to screw with sites they dont like. and hackers do other stuff besides ruin ppls sites. SO my ques is: what else do they do then?? (oh yeh this is addressed to grindz since ur th one who knows all this stuff)


Posted by lilbecky8 Jan 7th 2008

ok, defend was the wrong word... but you called Emerson out for "stereotyping" hackers. If your hard work had just been destroyed how would you feel? i just dont see the logic. if you would care to explain the logic, i will gladly listen. HIYA Tiassa!!!!


Posted by lost_diadem Jan 7th 2008

Yes, Grnd3lW4Ld, please enlighten us with your extremely intelligent and thoughful answers. We're all dying to hear why you support hackers.


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Jan 7th 2008

by defending them I meant that todays perception of hacking is nothing like what they really are. hating a group for what a small portion do is foolish and ignorant. there are many ethical means of hacking and there is no need to generalize, they are good people and good friends. lost diadem, I stopped talking to you a while ago. you have no idea what youre talking about.


Posted by KaitlinM Jan 7th 2008

Alright, maybe we should change the subject. lets start arguing about


Posted by member_of_SPEW Jan 7th 2008

grnds, it would probably help if you said exactly what ethical hacking is, i think.


Posted by marisa91 Jan 7th 2008

ok but my ques is what else do they DO????? cuz i recently saw the last Die Hard movie, and justin long was definitely a good guy. and so was the fat guy who never left his basement lol. but then the bad guys were all hackers too. it was really confusing


Posted by tiassa Jan 7th 2008

Oh there is an actual job called hackers and the do stuff to do with computers(very spesific I know) however through the years 'hacker' became a word to describe people who do exactly what you just describe. So yeah they got a bad name and the meaning of the word changed. Emerson knows this(he must cause obivously he knows computers even though not an expert like Damon) and he ment the second and more widly known meaning of the word. Grinds knows he ment this but if you havent noticed until now he likes to go against reason, and be a noob about everything


Posted by lost_diadem Jan 7th 2008

I think that would help also. Ok now with that answer I can see where you are coming from. I want to clear up that I did not mean to say that I hated the hackers but I don't like them either. I just don't understand the logic behind your defense of "ethical hacking".
