A Hacker's Plight

[Archon_Wing]

I have to say what an utterly utterly brilliant piece of sensationalist journalism by Flux!

Especially when paired with his almost simultaneously published article on The Most Annoying People on Battle.net here:

(You'll find the writer in question fits into a good 50% of the categories)

My first reaction to A Hacker's Plight was to be quite cross, then I decided it was almost parodic, then I read Flux' new column and practically feel out of my chair :D

I think the worthy CanisMortifer has had a rather large "Kick Me" sticker attached to his rump by a certain devious website administrator


As for the Diinet thread that followed this one stood out to me:

Does this mean we might expect Canismortified in Seven Lances soon trying to buy our YIN runes through Paypal? No wonder Foxbat is cringing

Great entertainment!

Incidentally back before D2 there was an urban myth about a "secret cow level" that many of us fell for. In D2 it came true. I'm just wondering if the playful Blizzard D3 team get their hands on this thread if there might be a cracked set Easter Egg in D3....

I was waiting for someone to point out Flux's ploy. Yea, he likes stirring up people. :P
