HWR MKII Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 He just took down the Hobby hanatics boards. They had the same IPB that MW has now. Please keep an eye out. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 I dunno of any other forums I visit that uses the same board. I guess if you guys visit other forums that use the same board, warn the board admins. Quote
kensei Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Hurin hid the forum version. Good on 'im. Quote
Mephistopheles Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Zim is a script kiddy. He has “hacked†many other forums run by amateurs. Forums that aren't very well protected. No big deal. His ability is limited to forum disruption. He is not able to do anything else. As a side note, I came across another forum he hacked and the people on that forum are convinced that Zim works for the government because of their anti-current-administration stance. Lol, right... There were also a bunch of newbs who claimed they found his home address and name based off his IP address... that had me laughing for a while. Quote
kensei Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 That's the stupidest thing I've heard in awhile. Quote
Mephistopheles Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 That's the stupidest thing I've heard in awhile. I was playing SOCOM 2 online — it's a PS2 game —and had a guy tell me that he was going to hack my PS2. I still laugh about it when I think of it. Quote
DeeLux Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 (edited) The same guy hit up a paintball forum about a couple weeks ago. specialopspaintball.com Edited September 26, 2006 by DeeLux Quote
areaseven Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 Just do a Yahoo! or Google search under "hacked by zim" and you'll see which forums he's attacked. According to my search, he's hacked AnimeForever, DrawSpace, Code: Lyoko TCG, AmericaCoasters Loudspeaker and a UCLU anime forum. He's even hacked, of all places, ABS-CBN's (a TV station in the Philippines) forums. Quote
Lightning Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 He just took down the Hobby hanatics boards. They had the same IPB that MW has now. Please keep an eye out. they were only down for a day, he didn't hit them as hard as he hit us. Quote
EXO Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 they were only down for a day, he didn't hit them as hard as he hit us. Well Hobbyfan was hit before by Zim, so they were ready for it this time. MW just wasn't expecting it. Quote
Hurin Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 If you've got a good SQL dump of the database, recovery is usually pretty trivial. However, in MW's case, we not only needed to recover, but also patch the server and the IPB version (by several iterations). That took time as well. I think there was also an unexpected issue with the database backups, so part of the database needed to be reconstructed/repaired "by hand" (so to speak). But, all of this happened before I was admin. So I could be wrong. Keep in mind that there are a lot of 3rd-party plug-ins for IPB. Thankfully MW does not use any. But they are often used as a "vector" to attack IPB boards (even ones that are fully up-to-date). H Quote
mister_e Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 this zim has a complex I just hate that everyone is giving him so much attention. That's what these script kiddies get off on. They love to see people talking about them, good, bad, or otherwise. I say just forget about him and don't continue to feed his ego Quote
pfunk Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 just a thing i found, I dont know, this website this Zim guy is an administrator to is being accused about hacking into sites and forums. I also noticed that thier is an advertisement for ABC. Prety interesting how it shows diferent IP addresses http://www.planetcricket.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1498 Quote

JB0 Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Zim is a script kiddy. He has “hacked†many other forums run by amateurs. Forums that aren't very well protected. No big deal. His ability is limited to forum disruption. He is not able to do anything else. Well, if he can copy-paste a forum exploit, he can probably copy-paste something more troublesome. He's still a script kiddy, and thus still a complete retard incapable of doing anything more than copy-paste. ... Wonder if he was even sharp enough to spoof his IP. Be hilarious if he wasn't. As a side note, I came across another forum he hacked and the people on that forum are convinced that Zim works for the government because of their anti-current-administration stance. Lol, right... There were also a bunch of newbs who claimed they found his home address and name based off his IP address... that had me laughing for a while. Heehee... I love paranoids. And kids trying to sound smarter than they are. IP lookups can be fun, though. Find some brats reveling in their anonymity, get their IP, get their ISP and city with that, then ask how the weather in their hometown is. They shut up fast. I was playing SOCOM 2 online — it's a PS2 game —and had a guy tell me that he was going to hack my PS2. I still laugh about it when I think of it. I had someone threaten to hack my computer and "steal my media player" once. That was pretty hilarious at the time. Quote

Mephistopheles Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Get some pitch forks and torches and chase him to the old abandoned windmill and set it on fire? Quote
Sumdumgai Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Only if we get to have laser beam emitters attached to our heads. And I want to carry a bigass trident instead of a pitchfork. Quote

Guppy Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 what a f__kwit. This guy should really get a life. I bet he also strangles cats for fun. Quote
Nied Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Sorry you're right it was Roman Dirge, my mistake. happy noodle boy rocks hahahaha Happy Noodle boy does indeed rock. My wife and I will regularly exclaim "I have been pantsed! I kill like the damned now!" when something minor goes wrong. It is a shame that zim steals his name from the great Jhonen Vasquez, but he is a script kiddie. Mooching off the talent of others while having none of his own is his thing. Quote
