It's my name, it's my game.

I blame the Ebaum's World Sucks flash video for all this. I think people took that "joining hands and rising up from the underground" stuff a little too seriously.

poo poo, I just had a revelation!

Baum apparently is German for tree, this means that Bauman means Treeman.

Treeman rhymes with Freeman. Gordon Freeman is the main character in the Half-Life saga! Both him and Bauman have red hair! This means that the events that happened in the Half-Life games did happen or will happen, but are simply different time streams than our's!

I have single-handedly proven quantum immortality as a result! Now I'm off to lose at Half-Life 2 a bunch in protest of Ebaumsworld.

You can't blame that video. Any forum raids inspired by the video would have take place when it was made (and I believe that was the case.)

Why should people care if EBaumsWorld stole a gif? If he's got enough leverage to post and ridicule legal threats then what makes people think spamming his internet forums will do jack poo poo?

no, but they're both huge gently caress-ups. One is a flaming poo poo-stealing banana-rubbing enjoyable human being, and the other opened up a portal to an alternate dimension where aliens came through and eventually an alien master race which took over Earth.

Agreed. I'm not going to fork over my e-mail address to that rear end in a top hat just so I can watch a few YTMND members have their way with Bauman's forum for a few minutes only so that they can get banned soon afterwards. Besides, posting in SA if exponentially more entertaining.

And while we're on the subject of posting, it's getting pretty late for me. I'm going to hit the hay. Goodnight, you princes of Maine. You kings of New England.

quote:

"The Raid"

On January 7/8, 2006, YTMND, as well as Something Awful, 4Chan, and others, invaded the eBaum's World forums. This attack was provoked by Eric Bauman taking a well known YTMND's background image, placing the eBaum's World watermark on it, and posting it on his site. "The Raid", as it is known by YTMND users, took place at 11:00 PM Eastern time. However, the main "offensive" took place within the site's live chat at 12:00 AM EST when the forums at eBaum's world were taken down.


"The Raid" was triggered by this YTMND: http://ebaumraid.ytmnd.com/

Comments on this YTMND are here: http://ytmnd.com/sites/profile/267250 This is where most members regrouped and claimed their alliance with those who would raid, before doing so.


A technical method was carried on to overload eBaum's World's system and bandwith, using Windows XP's "Command Prompt" task and entering a specific command. Consequences for this act are yet to be known, but a rumor says that by doing this, the website's "ads" are constantaly refreshed, and thus, eBaum's World receives more money from these ads.


Furthermore, internally, YTMND continued an assault toward eBaum's World, by making YTMNDs to make fun or insult the website. These even include fads, such as "_____ Does Not Change Facial Expression," or "OMG, Secret Nazi _____!"
