Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Aw shit, 2200+ blogs blown away, 700+ music submissions and 100+ flashy flashes. At least I have the lastly mentioned two stashed away safely, but those blogs won't be coming back, or the comments that went with them, or the replies to those comments, nor will the favorisms on my flashes. Additionally, seems like I've been banned from the BBS for 30 days, reasoning being "Hacking and Stuff". All portal buddies were deleted too, and submission info for the few flashes still remaining, as well as nearly 2000 private messages, and everyone in my block list, and everyone in my send list, and a few hundred submissions I had marked as favorites. Seems the admins won't bother giving me back the pass to my ALT either.

Oh, not only that, same hacker made it into my facebook account and blew away all comments, my whole database of friends, replaced all profile fields there as well, but I got that back. He tried my twitter too, and the idiotic twitter support keeps sending me messages of how I can resolve the problem by "resetting my password" when i try to contact them, obviously he changed my email there. Had to go around changing my passwords on a shitload of other sites as well, what a waste of time, not to mention all the time spent on the things now instantly deleted, no offer of restoration either, so I take for granted individual backups is not an option here at NG. Anyway, thanks for the support, can't post about it since I'm banned. Seems some people see statwhoring as a sin, but dedication regardless form is nothing other than beneficial to the community. All my submissions will be up on one or another of my websites for those who're interested. Sorry for the lost reviews peoples (at least I'll rise up a bit in the rankings, hehe), anyhow, I know it's a devestating downfall. :/

Oh btw, I even missed a days EXP! What a bummer. Seems like my longterm stay here at NG has been partly a rationed sequence of downfalls, but this is the biggest one yet. RIP, all my masterpieces prior to April 20, 2009.

Btw, this brings back memories. 137 of the 185 submissions listed there on that day are mine, haha.

Man, that really sucks. I hope this "hacker" rots in hell. Seriously.

Yeah, I wanted to write some encouraging words here.... but somehow it all feels/sounds wrong.

So... do you continue with your statwhoring on NG or do you cut down on your time spent here?

Apr. 24, 2009 | 5:54 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks man, same here.

Course I'll still be at NG, gathering EXP, collecting BP, reviewing a little, posting a little (he didn't manage to take those HAH), but I don'tthink I'll have the motivation to submit anything at the same frequency now, not when I know I can't get anything back if it goes away. The NG CMS still needs a lot of feature additioning . . .

That sucks man. At first I was upset about losing 13 audio reviews, good audio too, stuff that I really liked, but after I thought about it for a little bit your 1000's of things lost to my few audio reviews was much worse.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:19 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 8:21 AM risbolla says:

Skitt au

Bare å sette i gang da.
Har Tim sakt noe om backup?

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:19 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Hehe, har inget nytt material att skicka in, och det finns spärrar mot att skicka in samma material två gånger. Och, ingen backup. :(

Apr. 24, 2009 | 8:25 AM Sinitron says:

You had it coming. I know the guys that did it, and even though I wasn't involved they did it because we all agree that you're fucking gay.

Plus, nobody likes Swedes. Or poets.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:21 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Haha, envy is a harsh thing, you have my sympathy.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:10 AM TrickyClock says:

It was a sign from heaven that had to tell you that you're fucking gay, yet I know who did it. Talk about being gullible like a 9 year old.

Plus, nobody likes Swedes. Oh wait.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:21 AM Cyberdevil responds:

I've had the same pass since I was 9, so what a coincidence eh? You sound like an alt. :/

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:37 AM Shylian says:

it's horrible to hear you were hacked. :(
glad you got it back though!
best wishes on rebuilding your blogs, and hopefully it won't happen again.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 9:43 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks. :)

I won't be rebuilding my blogs unless someone from the NG staff steps in though, did say I was stopping my blogging here a few days ago before they were all just bammed away, but it would be great with all that text back, a shitload of inspiration and project response in those archives.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 12:40 PM Molotov says:

Sorry to hear that your account was hacked and most of your stuff was deleted but at least you got your account back,just take your losses and run. =)

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:00 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Heh, thanks, I'm running. :Ö)

Apr. 24, 2009 | 6:31 PM BlackPlastic says:

That's to bad to hear your account was hacked, but how much of the deleted stuff will really be missed?

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:00 AM Cyberdevil responds:

By me? All of it. By others? Idk, in total a few thousand favorisms by many people, much stuff, many people.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 6:55 PM KrevZabijak says:

Since you're such a whore about all the worthless data and 1s and 0s that you lost, at least you still have a silver whistle. Yeah?
I lost more shit during Katrina, Rita, and Gustav, and I didn't whine AT ALL, and then look at you when shit you STILL HAVE gets lost on a net account.
This is hilarious. Using one password for a decade.

I love you, I love you.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:03 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Yepp, still have my silver whistle, happy about that, and the reviews too. What bothers me is the time I spent on those things though, that no longer exist. Answering all reviews I recieved, writing descriptions, filling in forms, not to forget blogs, and the comments there . . . wouldn't surprise me if the time that it all took could be measured many by hours in thousands.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 7:58 PM milinko959 says:

I can't believe how gayly Wade was about the whole situation. He should realize that people actually care about their accounts, not sure why he found it necessary to insult you. Glad it's back in the right hands now though.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:03 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Yeah, thanks.

Apr. 24, 2009 | 8:19 PM Splatter says:

you got owned

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:04 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Only my account. ;)

Apr. 24, 2009 | 10:46 PM wyldfyre1 says:

So I take it you got your account back? Good good

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:04 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Yepp, it's all good.

Apr. 25, 2009 | 5:01 AM Metal-Therapy says:

I feel bad for you, man. :( This happening to you kind of creates the feeling that nobodys account is truly safe. If it happened to me I wouldn't lose nearly as much as you though, as I don't have any newsposts, audio or solo flash submissions.
Anyway, I'm glad to see you've got your account back! :)

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:05 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Yeah, it lets us know how fragile the net really is, specially with other people hosting our material, it blows big balls, thanks for the sympathy.

Apr. 25, 2009 | 8:14 AM Auz says:

Glad you got your account back. Sucks about all the PM`s, buddies and stuff that were also lost during the hacking :(

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:05 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks Auz.

Apr. 25, 2009 | 9:31 AM Crazy-Dorsy says:

Jesus, all that work... oh well, could be a lot worse

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:06 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Heh, always, I could've been flattened by a cement truck or something, that would suck pretty bad.

Apr. 25, 2009 | 9:43 PM cyberdevil2 says:

Hello, mister Cyberdevil.

Surprised to see me?

Your demise was imminant, you're ten times as bad as any of the spammers are. You were much more constant, half as talented, and produced less than any spam flash. Your flash wasn't spam, it was nothing. Nothing at all, and that is why I was forced to take you out of commission.
Your 2,000 something newsposts in two years was simply astoundingly stupid, and your 600+ terrible audio submissions as well as 150+ flash submissions were laughably awful. You are more of an attention whore than anyone on the entire site. Do you seriously feel that your massive number of submissions on all four mediums of Newgrounds was because you are just REALLY active? I think not. Your facebook, and twitter were just acts of stupidity.
I simply tried your newgrounds email on popular sites and 2 of them happened to work, and so I took them down. I could have done a lot more, but I figured knocking your two websites down is a little mean and not necessarily what I wanted to do in the first place. If you're gonna broadcast your stupid writing and your worthless overintegrity for the internet, make sure I don't have to see it here.
If I hadn't done it, nobody would have. Furthermore, your Newgrounds history was whiped, and you now have the opportunity to suck less.

I suggest you take it, or you're going to get another visit from the Grim Reaper.

Bam.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:18 AM Cyberdevil responds:

I never submitted for attention, it was all for myself, and I was happy when people appriciated stuff I made. Why my amount of submissions bothers people I don't understand, and I still don't, I stopped blogging two weeks ago, I stopped submitting crappy flashes since I didn't have the time or interest to make more. I have been active here, nobody can deny that, and the amount of time I spent on the stuff now lost is immense, I've been here almost daily for four years. Are you an admin here at NG? Is this place your domain? Here I was thinking it was a community were all people had equal claim. If I don't like a text, I don't read it. If I don't like a piece of audio, I don't listen to it. If you didn't like my stuff, it baffles me why you just didn't flip past it, there are hundreds of thousands of other submissions here - that are not mine. As for facebook and twitter. I used Facebook to stay in touch by friends, deleting my links to all people that know me, whome I can't contact in real life, what good does that do? On twitter, I hadn't submitted jackshit in over two years, I stopped at 666 updates for fun, if you have the decency, kindly put my email back in the account info so I can take back control over it, support there is worthless. What good did any of this do? For me? For you? For anyone else?

My sites are all backed up, so the damage you could have done there would always have been reversable. On this account, however, I can't bring anything back.

creative and intelligent

Apr. 26, 2009 | 6:21 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Hmm, again? Well thanks.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 11:53 AM DrSalvadork says:

Hmmmmmm, sounds like you've had a bunch of smaller downfalls during your time here...
Will CyberDevil recover from the blow?
Will he reach the #1 place in all ranks that are recorded on NG?
And will there ever be a Johnny Rocketfingers 3?

Apr. 26, 2009 | 3:14 PM Cyberdevil responds:

Of course CyberDevil will recover from the blow. The CyberDevil never falters, no matter how hard the wind howls he shall never fall down, he will never fail his expectations, he will constantly strive towards newer spectacles in the goals of life.
The CyberDevil plans on reaching the #1 place for most ranks recording on NG eventually, once he has reached the ranks he strives for however he will no longer strive to maintain those rankings regularly, sanitarily these same rules apply for all ranks that have already been achieved earlier. Such as being #1 audio reviewer, blogposter, commenteer, audio submitter, and so so much much more...
If a Johnny Rocketfingers 3 is not made within the coming decade the CyberDevil promises to build up a stunning sequell that will just blow your minds out.

Finally, someone who deserved it got assed

Apr. 26, 2009 | 3:16 PM Cyberdevil responds:

Apr. 26, 2009 | 1:22 PM Fleek says:

also stop using the word "favoratism" because you're using it in the wrong context you faggot

Apr. 26, 2009 | 3:17 PM Cyberdevil responds:

Never used the word you speak of, I made up my own though, favorism. Funky eh? :P Keep them randomly outhrown insults and ALTs coming, I love comments.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 8:50 PM Splatter says:

why do you ban people after you tell them to keep it coming?
if you love reviews so much then y dONT u mARRY thEM you fucker

Apr. 27, 2009 | 3:38 AM Cyberdevil responds:

Iron why a why.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 8:50 PM Splatter says:

Apr. 27, 2009 | 3:39 AM Cyberdevil responds:

The world is a wide and fluffy place.

Apr. 26, 2009 | 8:51 PM Splatter says:

Apr. 27, 2009 | 3:39 AM Cyberdevil responds:
