My avatar uses imageshack, but it seems to be okay...

Maybe I should change it to be safe...

NOOO! CURSES, MY LETSPLAY IS RUINED!


Well, not really. For some odd reason, only 7 pics on the first page and nothing else has been ruined.



I seriously need to re-host the pics on Photobucket anyway. Imageshack generally has a terrible case of memory loss!

Wel, that is called being a white hat, hacking for ethical purposes to protect computers against black hats, people who hack for unethical purposes. Though, I doubt that is the case.

At least, in theory. In practice, these kind of "White Hats" do just as much interference as black hats for a cause that'll just be ignored.

What are you talking about? White Hats are employed to do that. Hell, the NSA employs them. Its not a cause, its a fucking job.

When I said 'these kind of "white hats"', I was specifically talking about the ones that hacked Imageshack. Ordinary white hats do good work.

Then that makes these hackers black hats.

I vote we call them Ambiguously Gray Hats and leave it at that. This debate really isn't going anywhere.

Do we really need a color and the word 'hats' to describe them? We can't just call them 'Hackers'? That's retarded.

No seriously, this is why Photobucket wins out in the end. >:U

So, a single hacking event is unacceptable, while stupid, retarded-booty moderators that delete your pictures at random on a constant basis is preferable?

I guess that I just don't see it.

Oh ho ho ho!
