|
|
(CNN) -- The computer worm that surfaced in October 2008, Conficker, has recently targeted and infected ScoreHero's own SH-Bot, of which functions as a means of reporting malicious activity with administrative rights.
"This is not good," said ScoreHero administrator and founder JCirri. "With SH-Bot in shambles, we are susceptible to internet attacks."
The staff of ScoreHero has created a list of websites most likely to attack them in this time of vulnerability. At the top of the list, such sites include http://rockband.scorehero.com/ , http://ewiggen.com/ , and http://ddrhometracker.com/ , the latter being cited as the most dangerous.
All ScoreHero members who have donated previously to the website are now in danger. The entire donation fund can only be accessed by SH-Bot, of whom is now being controlled by unknown attackers. Although all account information is tied with PayPal, SH-Bot seems to have all known bank information on anyone who has donated.
"hey eff you buddy," commented ScoreHero user psxfreak101, whom has donated a total of $1000 to the website. "tut"
According to recent reports, SH-Bot also had control over what users could view on the website. Although SH-Bot has not granted any moderator power to local users, users are able to view the once secret ScoreHero Staff forum. Similarly, an administrator tools page still in beta has been leaked to the public, of which allows users to freely ban other members.
One of the recently banned members, popemobile, was outraged.
"what the [...] is this [...] piece of [...] do u even know who the [...] i am?" The staff reports that popemobile was banned as long as two years ago, however, a trigger called "Ban Random User" seems to still ban him. The results of being banned multiple times is unknown at this point.
"Chaos," said ScoreHero staff member Riz. We were able to find Riz recently in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, where he now resides. "I knew that place was going to go to hell. It was only a matter of time before the Software/Customs forum was going to lead an attack against SH-Bot."
The ScoreHero staff is currently doing all that is within their power to fix all leaks and errors in the database and forum. However, administrator JCirri is currently unreachable. How did we contact him earlier in this article? ¯\(°_o)/¯
Unfortunately, the conspiracy only grows thicker. Anonymous reports claim that SH-Bot was actually murdered in a subway several months ago using an EMP device. According to the reports, it was ScoreHero moderator EWiggen who forced user bjwdestroyer to carry out the act.
"I have no idea what you are talking about," said EWiggen. Upon further questioning, EWiggen had no responses. He was too busy eating a grilled cheese sandwich. After finishing, EWiggen screamed at those in his kitchen to make him another one. SH-Bot then came out of the kitchen to deliver yet another grilled cheese sandwich to EWiggen.
The true intent behind Conficker is yet to be determined, both in terms of SH-Bot's infection and the infection of nearly 20 million computers. SH-Bot went missing 12 hours ago, and is yet to be found.
"xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD," said ScoreHero user DragoonKain. "xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD."
Perhaps SH-Bot also has control over the minds of ScoreHero users?

Therefore, any articles discussing the news are now disallowed. This includes talking about anything on television, whether it be tv shows or sports events.

Oh man this is bad. Anyone ever watched Superjail! before? Remember when Jailbot got hacked?
....SH-Bot doesn't have axe-arms and missiles built into him, does he? |

And I was afraid this years April Fool's Day was gonna be boring. This is fucking epic. :P
This is madness! We must all fear for our lives; SH-Bot is a wily one. I ran into him once and I was lucky to have survived. _________________

Alright, here's the plan. You approach from Software and I'll sneak up from behind Gaming Discussion. Any others we recruit to our cause can box him in via TSG and Misc. GH Discussion. Once we've accomplished that, we can move to phase two and charge in for the kill.
Any questions? _________________

...Software? I didn't sign up to be a martyr!
