Issues at PSP-Downgrades
Rant warning

Okay, I'm mainly posting here because a few members here visit that site.
For those that don't, basically, I set up some pranks there:
  • Appearing as a no-name user
  • Reversing all the names in the "Online" list
  • Chucking a banner at the top of the screen, for some pages (big red text)
  • Got 1,000,000,000 in Snake (obviously cheated)

Now, I apologize (to the respective people) for the last action - I wasn't aware that it could cause much harm.  The others were purely there as a joke, and I was intending to remove the banner.  The admins (p0Wer and RaiderX) seem to be quite cool over the matter (except the last one, perhaps Erk)

The main thing I want to know - what do you guys truly think of my actions?  Were they totally unreasonable, stupid?  I personally think that the first 3 don't really cause any harm.
The reason why I'm asking is because I don't like causing harm to others (also, there's one other reason, which I'm not gonna mention now) - if you know me from PSP-Hacks, I frequent the Help section because I try to be helpful to people - if I wanted to harm people, I wouldn't have done that.
My aim here is to learn from this experience, and avoid making such moves in the future.  I haven't visited Downgrades since, so I have no idea what's happened (from what p0Wer said at PSP-Hacks he's made a fool out of my account or something).

So again, do you think my actions were purely unreasonable?

Heh heh...suckers.
I thought it was funny.
Anyone who didn't is a Sonyboner.
IMO no harm was done.
High score should be reflection of skill and determination, not luck.
Anybody who says they can't get it again doesn't deserve it.

Edit:
LOL!

RE: Issues at PSP-Downgrades
^^Yeah, I know.  I did make it quite obvious actually.  The other reason is because bellyOfdesire came and started bitching about it in the PSP-Hacks Mod section.  He's an absolute pocky IMO - it's not even his site, and both p0Wer and RaiderX can easily post there if they believe the issues at Downgrades have anything to do with PSP-Hacks.  Basically he started a thread with the pure intention of flaming me.

Ack, I'll stop there before I say too much.
Anyways, I'm glad no-one thinks I was serious, and really intended to stuff the site up (despite bellyOfdesire's stupid claims).

Actually, I think the only people really affected is those trying to achieve high score on Snake.  bellyOfdesire is just being a prick because he's not getting enough attention.

Anyways, that's my opinion.  This thread was started to get the opinions of others, so I'll shut up.

RE: Issues at PSP-Downgrades
^^Alright, thanks for your opinion.  I'll consider that next time I do something similar.

greg just mentioned that he's cool about it, so I'm gonna drop this whole thing.

DON'T COME BACK!!!



Nah, you know I'm kidding, it livened things up, I laughed my butt off at the banner!  I ain't mad at ya, c'mon back, take yer punishment, and hang out.  If anyone else there has a problem, you and me will stage a mutiny, cause havok.









And blame it all on michaelp and Fredi.

RE: Issues at PSP-Downgrades
I probably won't, well, at least not for a while.  I'm certain that p0Wer and RaiderX have nothing against me - they seem to understand the joke, and I don't mind what they do back to me.

What's totally inappropriate is belly0fdesire - he's a total pocky, especially considering that it's not his site.  Not only did he insult me directly in his thread, he directly insulted two other mods, Chaos Zero and PSdonkey, claiming that they have "weak minds" and dismissing their point of view completely, as if his opinion is greater than anyone else's.
Oh, and he also said the site, PSP-Hacks:

Oh poo poo, I'm going overboard again :(  I'll stop now, it's ended.


Thanks a lot for the nice comment, Games like a Grrl :)
