^they spammed the board crazy, also many people (like me) who dont usually be online for long periods of time, were online for long periods of time just to let people know the deal as well as spamming to disrupt the hackers plan of getting the forum to work fine and fool people into thinkng nothing had happened
many people were extremely stupid in understanding what had happened, so people like this had to be taught A,B,C and then told slowly what had happened and that there spammers aren't gay and idiots but were doing the spamming for a reason
