fart -hold on something is coming- this is big lmao go next page tia
You guys are going to like this, So there's this thread in minecraft forum called "2b2t" it's a pain in the ass to moderate sometimes because it's full of shitposters, but when it gets really awful the mod team check user details to ban emails, blacklist IPs etc. BUT something caught our eye. [url]http://facepunch.com/member.php?u=697524[/url] [url]http://facepunch.com/member.php?u=697337[/url] This poster and their friend have been trying really REALLY hard to harass people on this minecraft thread. They've joined their server, and gone around and screenshoted various buildings that the people in the thread had spend ages making. Then they slowly destroyed it all bit by bit, took another screenshot of the then destroyed buildings, and posted it all in the thread. They've been doing this for almost a week now. This was an odd amount of dedication, so turns out they registered their accounts here using their business emails and we thought we recognized the names from somewhere. Sure enough it brought us here: [QUOTE=latin_geek;46730695]I don't know exactly how related to gg it is, but @PixelGoth went nitpicking and found 8chan's perfectly legal but kind of gross and definitely [I]triggering[/I] pedo discussion board, and is bitching at patreon for not taking down 8chan's patreon page. It's probably a convoluted attempt at fucking up gamergate activity since 8chan is the GG HQ or whatever. Either way it backfired and a lot of backers for feminists/lazy devs/artists/that bitch vivian james are pulling support because "omg patreon supports pedos". Said patreon owners are trying to damage control, it's very funny. Grace stands from her perch of financial stability(???), mad at others who have theirs crumbling under their feet [I]because of her[/I] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/VMf4f5x.png[/IMG] This got RT'd into my twitter timeline, after two or three tweets from other, smaller, more deserving artists lamenting that a move to another service is something pretty fucking hard to do, that'd probably leave them with less backers=less money=less or no time to dedicate to their art.[/QUOTE] so yeah, we just thought you guys might find it funny that grace (user account "TheReveal") and amber (user account "Rekt") are now on this forum trying desperately to troll a minecraft server thread for days on end. starts here: [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1447101&p=47133052&viewfull=1#post47133052[/url] just let it play out and don't do anything dumb in retaliation or something obviously. We just thought it was funny that we're being harassed by them lol.
Oh my fucking god I hope she read my long post about her.
I know you guys love proof, so yea [img]http://i.imgur.com/oCuKJSy.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/tJqgOHX.png[/img] - These are publicly available business emails before you flip out -
i do not understand why they are doing what they are doing
Not going to lie, pretty disappointed. Cumulatively over 500 pages of Gamergate discussion and all we get is a trolled minecraft server.
Also *fart*

Oh come on she's gonna find out by the end of tonight anyways one way PR the other (not by me) I have a piece of mind to give her when she finds out, goddamn.
[QUOTE=Te Great Skeeve;47169584]Oh come on she's gonna find out by the end of tonight anyways one way PR the other (not by me)[/QUOTE] longer they go on worse it looks for them i'd imagine
[QUOTE=Te Great Skeeve;47169584]Oh come on she's gonna find out by the end of tonight anyways one way PR the other (not by me)[/QUOTE] Don't be That Guy(tm). Let it sit and simmer until the awful-stew is brought to an ambient temperature of toasty shite. Then it will be ready to serve.
imagine being so pathetic you use a minecraft esp. imagine.
I wonder if they have been monitoring this thread. Chances are, if they found our site, they probably found us because of this thread.
waiting for the user list to see them looking around here.
[QUOTE=Xonax;47169597]I wonder if they have been monitoring this thread. Chances are, if they found our site, they probably found us because of this thread.[/QUOTE] obviously the most damaging way to attack us is to grief a dying minecraft server
If they somehow manage to figure out how to edit their posts and snip it, do you think we should Archive the page?
[QUOTE=Xonax;47169597]I wonder if they have been monitoring this thread. Chances are, if they found our site, they probably found us because of this thread.[/QUOTE] I mean, we can tell if she is in the thread if she is logged in. She is in the 2b2t one right now. God knows if she already saw the two messages about her already...
PFF as soon as it leaks out she's harassing a community the facepumch cigj thread might get a boost in users. Also fuck phones [editline]19th February 2015[/editline] Also archive the pages and images, even if FP mods can just pull it up, let's make sure.
[QUOTE=Te Great Skeeve;47169623] Also archive the pages and images, even if FP mods can just pull it up, let's make sure.[/QUOTE] YOUR SLOW manual archive here [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17984511/2b2t%20archive.rar[/url]
[QUOTE=Xonax;47169597]I wonder if they have been monitoring this thread. Chances are, if they found our site, they probably found us because of this thread.[/QUOTE] I have a feeling they are briefing random mc servers for the hell of it. [editline]19th February 2015[/editline] This phone sucks and refreshes pages only sometimes!!
