[QUOTE=xpod1;23146758]In the end; if he held for the raid, but didn't actually [I]partake in DDoSing[/I] they're ok
butwhateverrrrrrrrrrrrr[/QUOTE]
Sure they're okay from having to pay his bills, but they still participated in the raid and therefor I feel their permaban is justified.
No one really ever get's done for ddos, true ddos uses botnets etcetc so the ip's causing it aren't directly to blame & tracking down botnet owners can be basically impossible. His fbi thing about logs just sounds like bullshit.
[QUOTE=Joshyy;23147087]Garry can't be held responsible for the raiders and DDoSers actions.
The simple fact that he is a "father of 5, with a very low income" is part true in my eyes, if he is so "strapped for cash", why doesn't he stop hosting servers for a while?
After being told that Facepunch will not pay for the bill, I mean seriously, as Mr Gestapo pointed out, A lot of our users are under the age of 15.[/QUOTE]
And I refuse to pay any part, no matter how small, for a bunch of people who are now permabanned.
I had no internet access when all this went down, I can't be held accountable even if i was older.
And can someone please explain how you know that he added false info to the logs.
I have no knowledge of DDOS attacks and the like.
He got the logs, he got the IP's below the posts.
And Ctrl+C/V ta daa we all go to jail
How do we know he did it though?
And couldn't you argue that you are not an American citizen, or he copied pasted, or you were in a botnet or whatever they are called.
i'm still unsure
Dr.Scrake should be unbanned. He did not raid.
Isnt it only concerned a DDoS if it is controlled from a single spot?
Well, my view on this is that Starting an DoS attack was a total failure on the side of these FP Users, but I got a little bit dissapointed that he seriously thought about getting money from FP and the part he always pointed out "my 5 children". Also, they arent Facepunch Studios Members, since the forum is just called Facepunch.
[QUOTE=Leaf Runner;23143661]He's an unemployed father of five and he's spending his money on hosting servers for a game? :bravo:[/QUOTE]
Which makes me doubt his story even more. He couldn't even be bothered trying to find garry's email address. He has his priorities all wrong. If he really is a father, I would be scared for his children when he puts a game server in front of them.
[QUOTE=bigbadbarron;23146785]Posting messages that encourage doing bad things should be prohibited. That is the full extent to which facepunch should enforce bans. Facepunch isn't meant to have an internet police force. Its just a waste of time, and only sprouts up threads like this one where people constantly fight over what was called for.[/QUOTE]
We're not an internet police force. If our members are doing something I don't like on a different website, I will ban them on this website to disassociate their actions with Facepunch. Posting on here is a privilege, not a right.

I have studied modules in High Tech Crime and International Crime Investigation at university and I can safely say that no organisation exists that would be willing to take this case on. Whenever someone says they're reporting you to the FBI, nothing will happen - even if they actually do report you.

There was no Denial of Service attack. The amount of traffic his website was experiencing was what knocked it offline - his community contains less than 50 people. About 400 - 500 people were browsing his website because it was the most popular thread on FP at the time.
By the way, a DDoS is a distributed denial of service attack which means it comes from multiple computers, for example a bot net. A DoS is just from a single place.
Wouldn't this be simpler if he had kept the offending thread to show to you hezzy?
or did those screenshots had every page of the thread?
Glad to see this shit sorted out.
hahaha holy shit he wanted you to pay him money?
He really shouldn't be runnning a server the position he's in.
All in all this ended well.
And he got a tenner off me.

Wanker
So are the guys who got perma'd going to be unbanned?
I mean the ones who spammed dicks and goatse should stay banned imo, but neckbeard, Dloar, etc etc the guys who weren't actually spamming should be unbanned imo, but its up to Mr.G.
I personally kept stating he's really really pushing the bullshit too far. but nobody listened.
Dlaor, Neckbeard, Eliteguy should all be unbanned.
Basically everyone who didnt spam cocks.

Every page of the thread, although apparently it wasn't restricted to that thread
There were Dicks on their General Discussion area.
Cannot unsee
He could just have permabanned the griefers from his server and all would have been well.
[QUOTE=Chickens!;23149561]Dlaor, Neckbeard, Eliteguy should all be unbanned.

I don't think "spamming cocks" should be the only reason to get permabanned.
Sure the guy who spammed cocks were more explicit than the others, but I don't think his contribution to the raid was that much worse than theirs.
[QUOTE=DrLuke;23149808]He could just have permabanned the griefers from his server and all would have been well.[/QUOTE]
Or Facepunch could have taken a more mature approach to this and simply got over that they didn't have access to one or two servers instead of raging like a bunch of butthurt children about how the block was unfair and the server owner needed to be punished for opposing the almighty Facepunch.

How much trouble would it be to host the file, I'd like to go through it and see why I was accused.
[editline]08:56AM[/editline]
unless you have reason not too. kinda forgot it full of peoples IP's
Is eliteguy going to get unbanned?
Well hopefully everybody learned a lesson from this.
Server owner guy - Don't generalize, don't host a server if you have starving kids and/or don't lie.
Facepunch - don't do stuff like this.
i could smell the word BAN in huge red letters as soon as i saw the thread whining about BBB.
for shame, to those of you who did.
For shame.

Facepunch if you are going to be silly enough to rage and do this again, pretend to be from ebaums, or 4chan.*

That will get us nowhere, they will come on here and rage some more at us.
This guy is spouting so much bullshit he's officially surpassed the British parliament.
