So all things considered, was there anything in the publicly known leaks that would point towards genuine glowie activity? This has been debated for years and yet it doesn't seem like there's any direct involvement.
 
>Entire site breached
>Source code leaked
>Secret board with staff messages leaked
>Jannies and mod team emails leaked
>Site completely vandalized
>Best staff can do is post sassy white woman tweets

This is what you get when your administration is shock full of trannies
What would you post? "We're working on it." is a pretty standard notice when you're still in panic mode and assessing damage.
 
AFAIK the responsible party had shell access.
Definitely shell access and root. Even posted a screenshot of him catting /etc/passwd.

If he got in using the method described (sounds legit) then they can probably patch that one thing but the fact is that the whole site is fucked and now known to be fucked and using ancient unpatched software on every level. It's actually shocking this hadn't happened already.
 
I miss /g/ the generals there were one of the few places that had good anons, a few insufferable namefags but even they always had knowledge to share.

I haven't posted on 4chan in what feels like a decade now.

I remember the glory days, events like the Independence Day War, the Great Meme War, and HWNDU.

Going back further I remember when I was very young and new to the Internet. 4chan was like the boogeyman, a name whispered in the dark corners of other forums.

Am I sad to see it die? No, not really. It's been dying for years now, and it's best days were well behind it.

Still, it's the Internet hits a little different knowing it's not out there anymore. F.
It resembles a rabid demented dog that you have to put down in it's state.

This is the end. My only friend, the end.

Can someone explain in retard terms why they can't even take the site down and just throw up a quick HTML "Under Maintenance" message or something?
 
>the rapefugees are starting to outnumber the natives ITT
It's over.
It was inevitable. 4chan was the last great containment zone of the internet, and everytime it goes down all of its shit flows out and buries the rest of the world. This time just might be permanent.
God help whatever place is dealing with the refugees from /mlp/, those fuckers can be relentless.

It's only held together by weak glue and tape, gookmoot doesn't give a shit.
