[classic] Hypersensitivity! Whining! Dramatics!

[Fry]

I want to see the worst posts you've ever found on an EQ messageboard.



The kind of posts that make you think "wow, that guy must have serious problems and I feel kinda bad for him...." but instead of thinking, just cut & paste the post here so we can laugh at it.





Soupy's edit: This topic's week has passed.

I'll start: (Hypersensitive)



I have not been in your guild very long and as such I somehow doubt very many of you have even noticed me. Even fewer I'm sure have taken note of my absense or even thought to question why.

Truth be told I did not leave in search of better loot or anything of that sort. I had an altercation with another guild member. This incident left me feeling betrayed, hurt, and completely unsupported. In my anger I chose to judge the entire guild based on the actions of one person at one time. Since the incident I have had time to think. I meditated long and hard on what happened and how it should have been dealt with. I have even made my appologies to the person in question and set the whole event in my past. But still I cannot help but feel a bit lost.

As I have only been here a short time, I have not yet developed the deep emotional bond so many of you seem to share. And I've always felt a bit secluded, like a third wheel. I simply have not felt like I fit in. This is no doubt my own failing, but sadly I have been unable to remedy it. Now I sit here questioning myself, deciding which path to take, what road to walk. I am not one to come crawling on my hands and knees back to anyone, regardless of whether I or the other were wrong. I am far too proud.



Today I attended a raid, much to the dismay of some of you I am sure, to support and protect my dearest Phaedria. At this raid I felt especially saddened and lonely, although that of course is entirely my doing. I toyed with the idea of begging to be reinvited, but I could not bring myself to do so. Despite the fact that Faydedar utterly slaughtered us, it was encouraging to see so many people working together towards one goal and never giving up despite the odds.



As I have given nothing to this guild, I cannot expect you to want me back and so I shall not ask to rejoin. Instead I believe I shall walk Norrath once again alone. It has been that way many times for me before and so it is truly fitting for me to be so again. Please know I do not write this letter looking for praise, or encouragement, or pleas to rejoin. Such would only degrade my emotions. Rather I write this to explain the atrocity I have commited and to make some small pennance for my act. I truly hope that my loss causes no notice.



Sincerely,

A trick was found that shortened the Spear of Fate quest. (keep in mind the SoF quest revolves around murding a paladin, fraternizing with drunkards, and killing a mother's lost child)



_______





If you go back and read the text on the Spear of Fate quest, you see it is based on faith, honor, integrity and justice. When I look at my Spear of Fate, it brings back memories of friends fighting and dying those first few weeks of the release of this quest. I think back to the early threads on this very board or success and failures of the many pioneering Shaman like myself who gave of their valuable time and experience dying to bring you this quest. I think back to those of us who forged deep into The Hole to challenge the then broken High Scale Kirn, only to be sent back to the Ocean to start this quest again 3, 4 .. somtimes 8 or 9 times.



I can stand back, look at this weapon in my hand and KNOW that I earned it. KNOW that my friends gave of their lives to obtain it. And KNOW that I still have faith, honor, integrity and justice immy heart.



Can you? Or do you stand before that shimmering pool of water, glaring at the reflection of you Spear of (ill)Fate, knowing that you cheated the system, and all of us Elder Shaman?



Congratulations on your Spear ... only you have to live with the decison and path you chose to steal it. From day one the Shaman ranks have always been small. We do a thankless, yet vital job in this game. It takes a hero to be a shaman. To stand up and logon night after night, to buff untill your fingers bleed, just so you can see the joy in another persons chat lines knowing it was you who made that possible, and without you, there would be no joy.

Here's a wonderful post by someone from one of the most soap-operatic of guilds, the Elven Poosaders:



-------------------------------------------------------



Okay I had to think a bit about how to say all this effectively and without the possibility of repercussions. I may not get it exactly like I'd hope, but the point will be understood.



I was going to delete Ayenfang today, but I didn't. Instead, I gave away every item that I had including gear and bank items. The only reason I didn't delete him is because my girlfriend happened to call and asked me not to, as that is the way we met (Ayenfang and Oombytes). I love her very much, and she did get me out of my little drop.



The details...basically I was told that I was a whiner, and that I was the biggest baby to have ever come upon EC. I was also told by the person to not send a tell or ever join a group he was part of again.



Why he said such things, I still do not know. I am not saying a name as I don't think it would be appropriate to cause any personal problems to get in the way of a character ingame. I know this person only in EQ, but I would rather not cause problems for him.



Anyways, I have given all my items to another character. All my bank items are gone now, and you should consider ayenfang dead. Like I said, the only reason he is not deleted is for the bidding of a very fair and lovely woman.



I have yet to decide whether I will destroy all my alts or not. I promise if I do, that I will give one of you a tell and give you the opportunity to pickup whatever little items of interest they could have for you. I honestly do not twink other than weapons and spells, so I have no clue the quality of what they have.



hohoho I am not a whiner, and I do not consider myself to be a baby in any aspects. If having feelings of warmth for people makes me a baby, then sobeit. I care openly for many people. I do not hide anything really. If you had a question about something, most likely, I would not hesitate to give a response...



But I must say, this person got me upset enough to make me cry. It isn't hard I guess. I have cried this year a few times. But it hurt more because it was a person I felt a likeness to (not in that homo sick way). Basically the people you tend to generally categorize as friends are better left as people of no effect. If they are not very very close, they should probably stay very very far away.



So that should be the vaguest post I can give without damaging anyone's name, and letting you guys know. I am not whining, but as hard as that person who i will call an A$$, there are some people here who would actually like to know. I am not so inconsiderate as to just leave no explanation for my actions.



I would like to say that I am a man. I am a man that is emotionally strong. But with strength comes the courage to let your heart open to people, and that can be dangerous. Just because a man is emotional does not mean he is weak. The strongest men of the world all got that way because they cared enough about something to stay dedicated. I have a life out of game, and maybe if I wasn't actually so bogged down with responsibilities, that I could lolligag on the computer playing EQ all night long. I got involved more than I should have in EQ. I let it affect my life. I actually got too much into it. So I need to do the healthy thing and backup from it if not indefinitely at least for awhile.



I have responsibilities in life that I do not neglect. That means that I cannot be able to level along with my friends as I would like. Growing up is not fun neccessarily, but if you are willing to think about it, it is for the best.



I think maybe that is a good ending place. I will check on this board at least for a few days. If I missed something, I'll try and reply to whatever is neccessary. I am not giving the name of the person out. I honestly say I am bitter toward them, but I am not going to hold it so close to me that I can't let it go. I needed to get away from EQ to do it, but my life in reality can not be influenced by people who are too weak to do anything but put others down to build themselves up.



Later my friends. You are all very special to me. I hope all of you happy playing.



Ayen



Oh, as a consequence of all this, I am going ahead and considering all my characters out of elven crusaders of the recruits. I will miss you all. Goodbye.

Soupy, that's a classic. Here's my favorite line:



<blockquote>Quote:<hr> I have cried this year a few times. But it hurt more because it was a person I felt a likeness to (not in that homo sick way). <hr></blockquote>



Yeah like, I cried a few times and that's OK, all heterosexual guys cry. And like, I like considered this guy my friend, I really liked him (NOT THAT I'M GAY OR ANYTHING) I just think he had nice muscles..



Anyone still watch he-man?

Hahhha -- I didn't even see that line the first time I skimmed it... I love how homophobes feel the need to qualify every non-macho statement with a "not that I'm homo or anything but..."



That's the number one indicator of a closet case right there. Well, here's another, emailed to me by a mole on the inside of a very kissed-up organization:



<hr>



Tillerhalfelven, Elven Poosader

Posted On 11/13/01 07:25PM



Hello everyone, I know that i joke about alot of things but i am going to take few minutes and explains some things to you all. I am doing this on are private board, for reasons you all should come to understand. I will be starting at the begining. I was born, well not that far back. How about three months ago. I met and leveled with a chr named beaute she grouped with are group alot for a couple weeks. We became friends, and talked alot in ooc, this progress to rl phone talks, and a guy/ girl interested in each other relationship. About a week and a half later this person moved away and stoped grouping with me just an occasional hello how are for three months, but ooc stoped completely, not sure why but it did. I think i started to sence that this person was not right in some 6th sence sorta way. So i went on about my thing leveling and playing and helping guildies here and there, and everywhere. About three maybe four weeks ago i met someone you all kow as Dezray, and really had fun helping and talking to her in role play, this led to another ooc relationship. Basically to make a long story short i fell for her and i am for the first time in my ooc life in love with her, as much as one can be 1500 miles apart. I hope to make the distance considerably shorter in the near future. Well no to get to the root of all the rumors that have been flying, Beaute asked me how i was one day and i told her great and that tiller was going to be getting married soon to someone other then her. At this point she got very upset, and makeing a big drama out of things i told her that we could be friends, but that i was in love with dezray, and planned to ask her to marry me. This obviously wasn't good enough for her, she has been makeing my eq life a livving hell. She has many alt chr I will list at the bottom of this text. She will not let go of something that ended four months ago, she has been harassing me constantly, she has been sending guild members tells and has been trying to trash me in anyway possible. She has many, many alts she infiltrated into the guild, she has Killed dezray and myslef repeatedly. I have no problem with dieing but it is OOC and her characters belong to guild such as druids empire fusion, and a few other anti guilds. This problem has gotten so big when i got other officers from some of theese anti pk guilds to deal with her chr's that she threatend them and harassed them to the point they have also started harassment complaints with the GM's, they are watching and i am petitioning her everytime she causes trouble for me...I am building a file on her so if you get anything in your logs that might be useful please pass it along to me. I love elven crusades very much, I love my family here very much, I do not by any means want to cause you guys any grief. The way i see it though is that she is a person who needs counseling very much, and I hope that we can make it through this just fine, I will be hosting a bar at my wedding reception when Dezray and I get married all the drinks will be on me. Aany questions you might have please post them here i will do as i did the other night in guild and ansewer everything honestly. I am not going to hide anything i want everyone to understand all the details. Thank you I may add more to this at a later time, but i want to go play for a bit....I forgot my list of her chr at home i will post them tomorrow Beaute and kerri are her main, both twinked big alts in fusion. PLEASE do not feed into her game, this is what she wants, If she sends you a tell run the name and the statement by me i will let you know what i would like you to do. Thank you Tiller...More to follow

WTG Deidre, you kissing vagina!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QUOTE:



Some of you have been posting your outrage about the flamesboard being deleted and apparently I have lost a few friends from this guild.



I would like to take a moment and explain something. I NEVER contacted EZboard at all about wanting the board deleted. Vino did that all on his own. Vino did NOT receive any message from EZboard about keeping me banned or saying it was my fault that the board must go.



I didnt even realize that I had been banned until 1am PST. That is when I sent a 'private message' to Vino saying that he really needs to look at Section 6. Thats all I said.



Now, Ezboard is located about 45 mins from me and opens at 9am PST. There was no way that Vino could have even Contacted them let alone have them research his allegations about me and then have him delete the forum between 1am and 830am which was when I first viewed that the board had been deleted.



Vino deleted the board because he violated the Terms of Use by letting a person stay on the boards who admitted he was stalking me. Section 6 states you have to keep your board free of posts that would violate a persons privacy. Instead he banned me. He has realized that he HAD violated the boards and therefore deleted them himself and blamed it all on me.



I know I have been a pest on the boards and it is the albatross around my neck, but please do not think harshly of me. All I was trying to do was defend myself (however badly) from a person who has admitted he stalked me in the past and wanted to bodily harm to me.



Thank you for your time, and if you are one of the several dozen people who are sending me hate mail for something I did not do and you still feel justified, I am very sorry that I lost your friendship



Deidre





End Quote



This was taken from PN's board. Don't backpedal now you bitch. Almost every single thread, to the tune of 12000 posts, was in violation of Section 6 of the EULA. However, no one had a problem with this until YOU came along. Vino is trying to save this forum and he took the best action he saw fit to do so.



However, he would never done such a thing if it wasn't for you. This flame is probably in violation of section 6, but it will be worth it if I get banned over it because if one more person realizes that all the flames got deleted because of YOU, I will consider my job done. So, kiss YOU DEIDRE YOU PIECE OF SHIT vagina WHORE kissING SNATCH COCK IN THE MOUTH FAT WORTHLESS CUM SWALLOWING TAKE IT UP THE ASS DYKE SLUT kissING BIAIAIAIAIAIIAIAAITCH!!!!!!!!



Congratz on ruining a little piece of our servers history! I know they were mostly immature and repetitive, but you don't have 12k of threads without some good funny intelligent posts that were a commentary and capture of some of the best and worst times of the Tholuxe Paells server. And you, being the PIECE OF SHIT THAT YOU ARE, have ruined that. Don't even dare try to backpedal, or blame Vino. I know you didn't twist Vino's arm to push the 'delete flames' button, but he NEVER would have done it if not for YOU! Dammit you really pissed me off! And in case you missed it the first time,



kiss YOU DEIDRE YOU PIECE OF SHIT vagina WHORE kissING SNATCH COCK IN THE MOUTH FAT WORTHLESS CUM SWALLOWING TAKE IT UP THE ASS DYKE SLUT kissING BIAIAIAIAIAIIAIAAITCH!!!!!!!!

Here it is -- eventually it WILL get taken down -- so here's another copy for posterity!



<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="blue">

Guild Wildfire has been deleted. Delsenora and Zyquo left the guild earlier today, since they were no longer content with the way the guild was evolving.

This in itself is not such a bad thing, members come and go in any Everquest guild.

The main reason for the deletion and thereby removal of the remaining members is that Rainy Skys of the "Mythic Legion", close friend of Delsenora,

has decided to blacklist me with her guild and online friends.

While I take this threat to myself lightly (you will too, when you read the below transcript and then afterwards, my comments),

I will not have anyone in Wildfire suffer for her irrate behavior, however remote the possibility.

Deleting the guild seemed the best way to immediatly detach every guild member from my in-game characters.







<hr>

For your reading pleasure, I have reposted Rainy's unprecipated litany of curses from my log files. Please note that I have at no point responded, since I was mostly busy

fighting at the time. Therefore, the 'responses' I would have liked to type at the time, are in white after each /tell.







<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:09:36 2000] Rainy tells you, 'So anyhow, lots of rumors floating around.. I could care less about anyone else, but I hear I have bad equipment, and my pet control sucks.. So listen up newbie.'





</font>

Where did you hear that then? You state they are rumors, given along through at least 3 different people, yet still you believe them?

No one ever commented on your pet control, other things yes, but not that.







<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:10:28 2000] Rainy tells you, 'I've been playing since day 1 beta 1, and while you didn't even own an account then, pets weren't even added to shamans untill much much later, so lets talk equipment..'





</font>

So your pet control does suck? Where's your point? Ok let's talk equipment.







<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:10:53 2000] Rainy tells you, 'I have what I have because I spent the time to get what I have, not have everything handed to me, like you newbies do.'





</font>

Newbies like us that started from scratch on this server and got nothing given to them? Where does that make us different from you?

I also remember quite clearly turning down your help and your offer of platinum.

The only person that got everything handed to her is your protegé. We'll get to that later...







<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:11:27 2000] Rainy tells you, 'So lets talk group control, and your sad sad leadership..'





</font>

<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:12:12 2000] Rainy tells you, 'For starters, as a leader, you always had this over asserted you knew what you were doing attitude, which is laughable at best..'





</font>

Yes you're right of course, assertiveness has never been a leadership quality.







<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:13:14 2000] Rainy tells you, 'I fight with the best, and I'm in the best guild. We don't just recruite everyone in the game, we play with this people, find out thier strengths and use that, something you appearently don't see..'





</font>

So Wildfire just plain recruited everyone they could find? Is that what you're saying? Too bad you never took a look at the roster of the guild you joined.







<font color="#FF00FF">

[Tue Sep 26 03:13:54 2000] Rainy tells you, 'Your remark about my equipment is hysterical, I have a manastone, I have golden efreeti boots, I have dragon gear..'





</font>

What remark would that be? As far as I can remember, your character Rainy took part in one single guild event of Wildfire and that only after you seemed unable to further play your

33 magician without chain-dying. I'm sure to remember everyone was in awe of your equipment.

Perhaps we didn't do the /kneel animation often enough, but the guilds wisdom casters certainly admired your nice toys.

Nearly dying to level 15ish yard trash during the event at level 55 sort of made the more straight-thinking guild members wonder, if you know how to use those toys.

</font>

I can't remember making any enemies. I certainly don't think you are my enemy. Concerning your blacklisting me in your guild, well that's too bad for me I guess.

Mythic Legion is a powerful guild and has many decent people in it, but they somehow always have trouble remembering you when I teleport one of them and then say:

"Give my regards to Rainy when you see her.". Even if what you said holds true, I will get over it.

Well you're open threat does nothing to prove you've spent even a minute considering the situation.

<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="blue">

(The following is my opinion. Your views may differ.)







So where did all these problems come from?

After founding the guild and adding the first few members,

two very special ladies joined our guild. One was a High Elf Cleric named Delsenora,

the other her in-game mother Mizri, being the alternate character of the above mentioned Rainy.







Delsenora was what I call a 'mutant'. She embodies the worst aspect of powerleveling.

While the person behind the in-game Delsenora is great and truely embodied the spirit of our "family-style" guild, her deficiencies while playing were glaring.

Imagine giving a total newbie a level 25 character and letting them lose on unsuspecting groups. Now while none of this is Del's fault, it was indeed the reason for a

lot of strife and argument among other guild members. A lot of that which Bazel called "soldier gossip" went on, which is quite natural since the anger had to be vented somewhere.

Although I was quite vocal in 'venting', I was certainly not the only one.

Even Delsenora's own fiancé had his fair share of this, presenting tales of newbie folly every morning after a long night of EQ.

Any seasoned player could only either laugh or cry when you ask a mid-level cleric why he didn't save himself from certain death with 'Divine Aura' and you get as an answer "What's that?".







Add to that her mentor, Rainy.

Not only did she 'forget' (for example) to raise Del's channeling skills above zero,

leading to an unexplainable loss of efficiency in a hard fight, she also seemed to lack a lot of knowledge of the in-game mechanics, oftentimes leaving those of the guild

that chose to peruse the various everquest messageboards every day to find the truth behind the game mechanics with a big question mark, as to how she could have attained such a level.

Perhaps Rainy just had a bad day ... or a lot of them. Suffice to say, the agreement among a large part of the guild was that something was indeed fishy about this shamaness.

So even if she is among the elite of her guild, we never saw any performance of that level.

Any argument about this was always stifled with Rainy's favorite final comment "I've been playing this game for so long, I just know better than you.". Well, you don't.







Coming full circle now, I'll have to mention that we did undertake an effort to rectify the Delsenora situation.

Diplomatically nudging at first, then later outright telling her what to do.

It went wrong.







Delsenora, when she was no longer able to bear the way the guild had turned out for her, took her leave from us like a true lady.

Members becoming discontent with the direction a guild is evolving is a fact of life in Everquest.

Speaking out against behavior of the guild leader or the members would have helped.

If you don't want that, then taking your leave silently is an honorable thing to do.







Going totally nuts isn't.

[Wubwub of the Nexus]

(NOT eq related.. but still the funniest thing ive ever read. this guy is insanely ignorant.)



As an enlightened, modern parent, I try to be as involved as possible in the lives of my six children. I encourage them to join team sports. I attend their teen parties with them to ensure no drinking or alcohol is on the premises. I keep a fatherly eye on the CDs they listen to and the shows they watch, the company they keep and the books they read. You could say I'm a model parent. My children have never failed to make me proud, and I can say without the slightest embellishment that I have the finest family in the USA.



Two years ago, my wife Carol and I decided that our children's education would not be complete without some grounding in modern computers. To this end, we bought our children a brand new Compaq to learn with. The kids had a lot of fun using the handful of application programs we'd bought, such as Adobe's Photoshop and Microsoft's Word, and my wife and I were pleased that our gift was received so well. Our son Peter was most entranced by the device, and became quite a pro at surfing the net. When Peter began to spend whole days on the machine, I became concerned, but Carol advised me to calm down, and that it was only a passing phase. I was content to bow to her experience as a mother, until our youngest daughter, Cindy, charged into the living room one night to blurt out that "Peter is a computer hacker!"











As you can imagine, I was amazed. A computer hacker in my own house! I began to monitor my son's habits, to make certain that Cindy wasn't just telling stories, as she is prone to doing at times.



After a few days of investigation, and some research into computer hacking, I confronted Peter with the evidence. I'm afraid to say, this was the only time I have ever been truly disappointed in one of my children. We raised them to be honest and to have integrity, and Peter betrayed the principles we tried to encourage in him, when he refused point blank to admit to his activities. His denials continued for hours, and in the end, I was left with no choice but to ban him from using the computer until he is old enough to be responsible for his actions.



After going through this ordeal with my own family, I was left pondering how I could best help others in similar situations. I'd gained a lot of knowledge over those few days regarding hackers. It's only right that I provide that information to other parents, in the hope that they will be able to tell if their children are being drawn into the world of hacking. Perhaps other parents will be able to steer their sons back onto the straight and narrow before extreme measures need to be employed.



To this end, I have decided to publish the top ten signs that your son is a hacker. I advise any parents to read this list carefully and if their son matches the profile, they should take action. A smart parent will first try to reason with their son, before resorting to groundings, or even spanking. I pride myself that I have never had to spank a child, and I hope this guide will help other parents to put a halt to their son's misbehaviour before a spanking becomes necessary.



1. Has your son asked you to change ISPs?



Most American families use trusted and responsible Internet Service Providers, such as AOL. These providers have a strict "No Hacking" policy, and take careful measures to ensure that your internet experience is enjoyable, educational and above all legal. If your child is becoming a hacker, one of his first steps will be to request a change to a more hacker friendly provider.



I would advise all parents to refuse this request. One of the reasons your son is interested in switching providers is to get away from AOL's child safety filter. This filter is vital to any parent who wants their son to enjoy the internet without the endangering him through exposure to "adult" content. It is best to stick with the protection AOL provides, rather than using a home-based solution. If your son is becoming a hacker, he will be able to circumvent any home-based measures with surprising ease, using information gleaned from various hacker sites.



2. Are you finding programs on your computer that you don't remember installing?



Your son will probably try to install some hacker software. He may attempt to conceal the presence of the software in some way, but you can usually find any new programs by reading through the programs listed under "Install/Remove Programs" in your control panel. Popular hacker software includes "Comet Cursor", "Bonzi Buddy" and "Flash".



The best option is to confront your son with the evidence, and force him to remove the offending programs. He will probably try to install the software again, but you will be able to tell that this is happening, if your machine offers to "download" one of the hacker applications. If this happens, it is time to give your son a stern talking to, and possibly consider punishing him with a grounding.



3. Has your child asked for new hardware?



Computer hackers are often limited by conventional computer hardware. They may request "faster" video cards, and larger hard drives, or even more memory. If your son starts requesting these devices, it is possible that he has a legitimate need. You can best ensure that you are buying legal, trustworthy hardware by only buying replacement parts from your computer's manufacturer.



If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well.



4. Does your child read hacking manuals?



If you pay close attention to your son's reading habits, as I do, you will be able to determine a great deal about his opinions and hobbies. Children are at their most impressionable in the teenage years. Any father who has had a seventeen year old daughter attempt to sneak out on a date wearing make up and perfume is well aware of the effect that improper influences can have on inexperienced minds.



There are, unfortunately, many hacking manuals available in bookshops today. A few titles to be on the lookout for are: "Snow Crash" and "Cryptonomicon" by Neal Stephenson; "Neuromancer" by William Gibson; "Programming with Perl" by Timothy O'Reilly; "Geeks" by Jon Katz; "The Hacker Crackdown" by Bruce Sterling; "Microserfs" by Douglas Coupland; "Hackers" by Steven Levy; and "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" by Eric S. Raymond.



If you find any of these hacking manuals in your child's possession, confiscate them immediately. You should also petition local booksellers to remove these titles from their shelves. You may meet with some resistance at first, but even booksellers have to bow to community pressure.



5. How much time does your child spend using the computer each day?



If your son spends more than thirty minutes each day on the computer, he may be using it to DOS other peoples sites. DOSing involves gaining access to the "command prompt" on other people's machines, and using it to tie up vital internet services. This can take up to eight hours. If your son is doing this, he is breaking the law, and you should stop him immediately. The safest policy is to limit your children's access to the computer to a maximum of forty-five minutes each day.



6. Does your son use Quake?



Quake is an online virtual reality used by hackers. It is a popular meeting place and training ground, where they discuss hacking and train in the use of various firearms. Many hackers develop anti-social tendencies due to the use of this virtual world, and it may cause erratic behaviour at home and at school.



If your son is using Quake, you should make hime understand that this is not acceptable to you. You should ensure all the firearms in your house are carefully locked away, and have trigger locks installed. You should also bring your concerns to the attention of his school.



7. Is your son becoming argumentative and surly in his social behaviour?



As a child enters the electronic world of hacking, he may become disaffected with the real world. He may lose the ability to control his actions, or judge the rightness or wrongness of a course of behaviour. This will manifest itself soonest in the way he treats others. Those whom he disagrees with will be met with scorn, bitterness, and even foul language. He may utter threats of violence of a real or electronic nature.



Even when confronted, your son will probably find it difficult to talk about this problem to you. He will probably claim that there is no problem, and that you are imagining things. He may tell you that it is you who has the problem, and you should "back off" and "stop smothering him." Do not allow yourself to be deceived. You are the only chance your son has, even if he doesn't understand the situation he is in. Keep trying to get through to him, no matter how much he retreats into himself.



8. Is your son obsessed with "Lunix"?



BSD, Lunix, Debian and Mandrake are all versions of an illegal hacker operation system, invented by a Soviet computer hacker named Linyos Torovoltos, before the Russians lost the Cold War. It is based on a program called "xenix", which was written by Microsoft for the US government. These programs are used by hackers to break into other people's computer systems to steal credit card numbers. They may also be used to break into people's stereos to steal their music, using the "mp3" program. Torovoltos is a notorious hacker, responsible for writing many hacker programs, such as "telnet", which is used by hackers to connect to machines on the internet without using a telephone.



Your son may try to install "lunix" on your hard drive. If he is careful, you may not notice its presence, however, lunix is a capricious beast, and if handled incorrectly, your son may damage your computer, and even break it completely by deleting Windows, at which point you will have to have your computer repaired by a professional.



If you see the word "LILO" during your windows startup (just after you turn the machine on), your son has installed lunix. In order to get rid of it, you will have to send your computer back to the manufacturer, and have them fit a new hard drive. Lunix is extremely dangerous software, and cannot be removed without destroying part of your hard disk surface.



9. Has your son radically changed his appearance?



If your son has undergone a sudden change in his style of dress, you may have a hacker on your hands. Hackers tend to dress in bright, day-glo colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks" and some wear pacifiers around their necks. (I have no idea why they do this) There are many such hackers in schools today, and your son may have started to associate with them. If you notice that your son's group of friends includes people dressed like this, it is time to think about a severe curfew, to protect him from dangerous influences.



10. Is your son struggling academically?



If your son is failing courses in school, or performing poorly on sports teams, he may be involved in a hacking group, such as the infamous "Otaku" hacker association. Excessive time spent on the computer, communicating with his fellow hackers may cause temporary damage to the eyes and brain, from the electromagnetic radiation. This will cause his marks to slip dramatically, particularly in difficult subjects such as Math, and Chemistry. In extreme cases, over-exposure to computer radiation can cause schizophrenia, meningitis and other psychological diseases. Also, the reduction in exercise may cause him to lose muscle mass, and even to start gaining weight. For the sake of your child's mental and physical health, you must put a stop to his hacking, and limit his computer time drastically.



I encourage all parents to read through this guide carefully. Your child's future may depend upon it. Hacking is an illegal and dangerous activity, that may land your child in prison, and tear your family apart. It cannot be taken too seriously.

I must say, you have got me upset enough to make me cry. It isn't hard I guess. I have cried this year a few times. But it hurt more because you are a person I felt a likeness to (not in that homo sick way). Basically the people you tend to generally categorize as friends are better left as people of no effect. If they are not very very close, they should probably stay very very far away.

This incident is leaving me feeling betrayed, hurt, and completely unsupported. I shall have to meditate long and hard on what's happened and how it shall be dealt with.

I've always felt a bit secluded, like a third wheel. I simply have not felt like I fit in. This is no doubt my own failing, but sadly I have been unable to remedy it. Now I sit here questioning myself, deciding which path to take, what road to walk. I am not one to come crawling on my hands and knees back to anyone, regardless of whether I or the other were wrong. I am far too proud.
