7:12am: holy freaking crap
What the christ is going on?!

So it's pretty common knowledge to everyone not in high school that Eric Bauman, creator and owner of eBaum's World, is a lying sack of shit who steals content and makes tons of money off it (literally millions). Wank's been hitting the fan with that site since day one with not only SomethingAwful, but Viacom and Sega corporations as well. Beyond the theft, Bauman's moderators once encoded JavaScript into every page of the site focused on DdoS'ing (sucking massive amounts of bandwidth) the SomethingAwful forums, which is holy-shit-illegal.

Last Saturday the denizens of YTMND.com discovered the theft of one of the more stupidpopular sites, "Lindsay Lohan Doesn't Change Facial Expressions".

They got a little mad.

A lot of stupid but oddly hpynotizing sites were created. Repeated attempts to contact Bauman fail, surprise surprise.

But meanwhile, on the ytmnd forums, trouble was a brewin'. DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNNN.

Amazingly enough, considering how unorganized the forums are, users managed to form an alliance including not only over six hundred ytmnd forumgoers, but also SomethingAwful, 4chan, Newgrounds, Fark, and LUElinks.

At EST midnight, Monday morning, they united together to massively DdoS the eBaum's World servers, pinging and flooding and all that other technocrap that makes his forums go down for a good while, though it barely dented the main site's MASSIVE bandwidth.

Beyond even that, Bauman received hundreds of prank calls and two ytmnd forum members actually drove to the eBaum's physical headquarters and vandalized the place.

The next morning, even more stupid sites are created, some just plain retarded and some actually documenting the attack.

Max, the webmaster and founder of YTMND.com, realizing the illegality of the situation, repeatedly attempted to gain hold of his minions with little success.

Meanwhile, over in Hellon eBaum's World, they are PISSED. A bright, bold, ugly red link from the top page leads to an "explanation" of the attack.

"For the last 36-48 hours, ebaumsworld.com has been the victim of a global cyber-terrorism attack allegedly conducted by an alliance of webmasters and their followers who disagree with our company's editorial process." says they.

Yeah, okay, I'm sure all them obsessive World of Warcraft players are a real threat to society. Beyond the smell, I mean. That's so full of bullshit it's coming out their asses.

The next day, though, Max recieves an email from Neil Bauman, Eric's father and Vice President of the eBaum's World corporation.

MY YIDDISH CUP (fear the grammar) )

A follow-up is sent before Max finally swoops down and releases previously unknown ownage. Give the man some image macros for his good work.

Best part: Dramatic reading of the emails!
2:19pm: Okay, recently in a post an anon popped up offering people locked posts from a wanker's journal.

Now, the wrong response to that was 'ooh please, here's my email'.

These people are all warned:
