your mom

Hackers hijacked the servers for Shadowbane, an old MMO, for a few days, teleporting entire cities underwater to drown every player, or constantly spawning really strong mobs in city centres for hours on end.

Good times.

I HAVE A HEART CONDITION YOU FUCK

hello rato
Your fucker.

...

Just looked up that kid who was killed over a dispute in Tibia. I was not ready for that shit.

You're too late rat.

immunity cat is always with me fucker

"hello rato"

2011 PlayStation Network outage

That image always makes me scared to watch tv at night

IM GONNA POST IT AGAIN!!!

The Internet exists, who the hell still watches TV? Haven't watched TV in 15 years.

In terms of hijacking something to deliver a message, this:

source?

If Sup Forums would be in charge of writing a hidden message like that, what would it say?

nsfw stuff

Are you joking. Google Murder Tibia or something, expect 20 extremely graphics pics immediately.

So much effort for a seemingly pointless message. We need to go deeper, decipher the cure for cancer.

Some of us still prefer the old fashioned way of doing things

Dr Pavel, I'm CIA

DELETE THIS.

Maybe the Runescape Falador incident?

I guess that would be.

Why? It was funny.

>I'm sending you back to the Edo period

Fuckin lold

>the 10 year anniversary of the falador massacre is in just 2 fucking weeks

jesus fucking CHRIST

It's the same reason why those emergency alert system broadcasts freak people out. It's unexpected and shocks you when you least expect it

>Be dumb enough to buy a Sega CD
>Get traumatized because of a bug

Th-Thank you Coldsteel

Games get hacked all the time, there is no incident.

>Turn off the game
>You were watching one of "those" channels

Do people really still find that to be spooky?

I was 11 at the time, and thought it was hilarious. Still do.

Has anybody else here played Polybius? I thought it was ok tbqh fåm.

myg0t hackers who would go to CS:Source servers and start raining skulls, gibs, and all kinds of things over Dust. The server I was on couldn't figure out who or how it was happening. But everyone, including regulars, were permanently banned as a precaution. It was a very interesting half an hour.

It's getting cold, isn't it?

People probably haven't seen the entire footage. The image is spooky as hell. The first few seconds of the footage is creepy. Then he bends over and has someone spank him and it loses it all.

>BR
And nothing of value was lost

>myg0t

What country is worse Brazil or India?

Sweden

The whole thing was just so surreal and creepy. The fact they never found who did it just makes it worse

Honestly the fact that such a simple dispute led to this much carnage is unbelievable.

Didn't some guy confess to doing it on Sup Forums?

>believing anything on Sup Forums

Not sure but someone on reddit a few years ago said he thought an autistic guy he was acquainted with at the time was responsible for it.

That might be what I'm thinking of

is that zach hill

He debunked it.
reddit.com/r/UnsolvedMysteries/comments/3oaxi5/new_developments_in_the_max_headroom_incident

There was an update to that post. The guy who thought he knew who was behind it all said that the autistic guy didn't do it

KONAMI
E3
PRESS
CONFERENCE

Truthfully, could the people behind it even get charged for it now? Wouldn't statute of limitations have been up by now?

I mean it's not as if they'd get prison time for it, it was a short fucking prank stunt, they'd get a fine and maybe community service.

I'm pretty sure tampering with a broadcast signal of a news network is a felony

...

whoa

It is indeed, although similar cases did seem to mostly get just fines and probation.

Jesus Christ, what the fuck even happened?

Fasthands

Or maybe he drunk the green healing potion

Brazil

The assassination of Lord British in Ultima Online. Sure, it's not exactly hijacking a broadcast, but it sure disrupted a public speech.

Looks like we don't even know the half of it

jesus fucking shit i haven't seen one of zombies drawings in years

...

Remember me?

That whole plague thing with WoW was sort of like an accidental Max Headroom.
