About 2 years ago, or however long ago the Win2k source code leaked, I made a joke file called "WinXp.Source.Code.spam". Yes, the extension was ".spam". The file size was 14 kb.
Anyways, inside I made some bullshi'ite Visual Basic code, stuff like
if condition (user.tries.anything)
{
freeze_computer();
laugh_manically('Har Har Har');
display_bigass_picture_of_billy_gator_and_windows_ copyright();
}
etc. So I joined this techie forum, a forum about programming and stuff, and thought Id give them a good laugh.
I posted that thing in the spam forums, and the next day I found myself being slapped with the banstick!!!111one
In the email I got, the admins had banned me for posting, get this, "Illegal and copyrighted material". WTBF!? So I joined up under another username, PMing them to try to tell them that seriously, a 14kb file with the extension .spam being the real source code of the then newest Windows OS? Come on.
But the next day, another ban. This time it was an IP ban, and a warning that if I came back I would get a letter from my ISP.
Several of my friends joined shortly thereafter, some tried to get an explanation and some just to laugh at them. They all got banned right away.
Pity I can't remember the name of the place, but this shows that even the self-proclaimed geeks do have a high ratio of dumb sods in their ranks.
