C&C: Renegade --> Dying since 2003™, resurrected in 2024!
As of right now 3:36AM EDT there is porn pictures on the front of the Renegade Wiki Im assuming there not suppose to be there?! Never the less thats fucking hilarious..... www.renegadewiki.com
I had a look and am now off to bed with happy thoughts
It wasn't HACKED. It's a WIKI... anyone can edit it. Unfortunately this guy has to ruin it for all of you who mean well. It's offline until I can clean it up. The funny thing is that it will only take me about 10-15 minutes to undo what was probably an all-day project for this dim-witted loser.
what he do and why did they make it so everyone can edit it kinda gay
The point of a Wiki is so that anyone can edit it. That's why they're so popular.
I thought you're able to edit it then a moderator views it like wikipedia.
Wikipedia is edited live. Moderators review it after the fact.
The Nod repairpad image was hot (really).

Yeah but in all seriousness the person who did it deserves to be shot. People have put a lot of time into that Wiki, and now Crimison is going to have to spend a long time fixing it. If you need some help putting in information or what ever ill be glad to help.

Actually its easy to fix, all you have to do is to go page history, edit the revision before the moron edited it, and save that as the new version, and its all good as new. I suspect Crimson will also be removing the indecent images from the page histories as well though, which only admins can do.
Yeah, rolling back text is easier than rolling back images, and I do not need the current inappropriate images to be viewable at all.
Kinda reminds me of some twat on the Rp2 forums, VulcanMak, aka Mickey, Lucky, Missingo, and many other names from /b/ or encyclopedia dramatica, cept we had the unfortunate luck of having a vengeful spammer, who posted goatse and other gruesome images... Took about 5 minutes to fix, and 30 seconds to ban all his accounts.

I'm pretty sure that wiki stores the ip of the author after each edit too. So if the abuser is a renegade-player, Crimson would know using an ipcheck.
She said he uses Tor, so I highly doubt she could. Tor is a sort of massive proxy list thingy. -Ghost-
Holy crap, Renegade has a Wiki?

razorblade001 wrote on Sun, 12 August 2007 14:32 Holy crap, Renegade has a Wiki? *hits razor blade with a *frozen* large trout yes yes there is. but never the less that has been a community project for a long time. (This is just my new alias I was around a long time ago when it(Renegade) was first released.) I'm kinda suprised who ever did it has not taken credit. He definitely seems stupid enough to. and I know it wasn't "Hacked" but I was in lack of a better word right before I went to bed at 4 am in the morning..
Everybody blames /b/. Though, I wouldn't go as far as saying they don't have a hand in it. I just don't think they're as much of terrorists as people would like to label them.

Well... it needs to be advertised more.. because I have never heard of it before today, and I been apart of the community for a pretty long time now (Took about a year-2 years to make a forum account)
It's the big yellow banner on top of each forum...
*looks* HOLY CRAP! I never noticed that before O_o someone shoot me.
Is there not an IP associated with whoever changed the listings? I'm sure showing that here, someone could at least be found matching it... Perhaps some sort of action be taken against them...?
He was using Tor which is a proxy thingy, which means the Ip listed is not his real one. -Ghost-

No, if he has oreos, we steal his milk. >:)
Don't get too worked up, as they said it is easier to undo it than doing stuff onto it.
Or what if we drink his milk and leave an empty carton?
btw, throw the empty carton in a recycling bin.
You should realize that the #1 goal of the person who did this, is to see a post like this, drawing attention to their antics. Don't feed the trolls.
Or in this case, don't give milk to the trolls.
I dunno assholes like that tend to take credit for there actions. Whats the point of doing it really if you cant take credit for it. I am still mad no matter how easy it is to fix, it is a harmless community project that has been defaced by some ignorant punk.
$10 says it is a mod trying to spice up the community. Thats right, I'm on to you. You know who you are, and you better start running!
Double post... Umm, just curious, did you forget to make the website active again? Cause I want to see what it is like.. I am basically doubting it ever really existed in the first place.
Sorry, I am really tired from my trip. It will be fixed very soon, though... I don't want to screw up our search engine rankings by letting it sit like this for long.
Once again, I am saying it was VulcanMak, he pulled the same shit back at Roleplay 2 forums when he got banned, blaming /b/ and all for it. This was probably for him to get us angry at that site, while he would show /b/ the posts of us angry at them, which would make them raid us. Too bad for him it didn't work, so he came here. By the way, Crimson, his IP is 71.110.45.34. See if he was at Renegade Wiki the day it got vandalized.

I was lol'ing at the Hand of Nod image. Then I went and started fixing everything under the name MajorKoopa.
I think Vulcan was some retard that was complaining in APB official server. He got banned I think :V

^Wow.. please use your brain before posting.
Tunaman wrote on Tue, 14 August 2007 21:37 ^Wow.. please use your brain before posting. Actually, I did. It VERY well could have been- Every word meant "C-U-N-T" And he cahnged it, to relevate it to his story.
so when will renegadewiki be back up?? were any of the articles touched, or just the main page?? if the articles were NOT touched, i want a link to any one of them about stealth tanks. thanks.
None of the articles are lost, that's part of how a Wiki works, whenever you change a page the OLD page is still there. Therefore NOTHING has been lost, it just needs to be rolled back.
but did he affect the articles?? did he cahnge them?? do they need to be rolled back? or did he just change the front page? you still havent answered my question
I didn't see it, but from what I understand almost all of the pages had pr0n images on them, instead of their original content.
Basically any photo was replaced with pr0n. It's weird seeing "Spoony's strategy guides - Field" and then a pr0n image... somehow they don't connect...
About 75% of the pages were altered, then I edited alot of them back, and reverted the images.
I did a major clean up on the wiki of the spam three mounths ago. Some onedecided to go ahead and drop a bomb on it. I'll be more then happy to help you clean up. not this second though my girl friend is still here I dont want her to have any unnecceary thoughts

What have we told you about exploiting midgets to win on canyon?
crimson, when will you have it back up? that message on the front screen is getting annoying because it means i still cant upgrade my stratiges..... btw, you do a good job admining the site.
I'm working on it right now. I'm keeping it down to the general public until everything is fixed.
thanks. thats all i need but im still bummed..... i guess ill go start a post about flame tanks vs mammy tanks

dang... still not up as of thursday.... im bored.. but im not rushing you crimson...you have a lot to do
I'm not this enthusiastic Quote: Go Crimson I respect you
I don't want to bore you with all the details of my life, but I am working on a project for work and being sick with a cold which I caught in California, and last night I played my last game of bowling for the summer league I was in (and we WON first place!) -- now I will get this finished. Just for reference, though... the reason I am investing a little time in this is to prevent it from happening again. The cleanup from this is made pretty easy and would only take me a few minutes. However, I am taking this opportunity to update the software to the newest version and to reconfigure it to moderately limit who has access to make updates to it. After this is completed, I would like to see a few people who have made a lot of updates to the pages apply to get higher access to make cleaning up faster in case this happens again. It's a rough job, but it's sometimes hard to combat someone who has 8-10 hour stretches of time on their hands to deliberately cause this much damage. I only wish I had that kind of free time.
OK, the wiki is back up and newly cleaned. I also upgraded to a newer version. I will still be tweaking permissions going forward, but those of you who have been waiting to update your articles can do so now. I also wanted to extend a special thanks to Cheekay, Hex, and MajorKoopa for working really hard to fight off this idiot.
OK, there's a permission called "Bureaucrat" which lets you edit other people's permissions. So, it seems we need a person or two who can grant people access to make edits on the Wiki. I added a new extension that prevents everyone except explicitly-allowed users to make edits to pages.

Apparently this page ( http://www.renegadewiki.com/index.php?title=Talk:XWIS_Transition_FAQ ) Is protected with spam on it... And.. would I be one of those explicitly allowed users? I do occasionally edit stuff on the Wiki and try to clean up spam and such... EDIT: Ok, apparently EVERY page on the wiki is protected
Fixed, and I really could use some templates...
I must admit I was almost flattered when they changed the clanwars league page to "CLAN WARS IS A NEGRO SPORT INVENTED BY SPOONY" over and over. Sometimes I get too much credit.
OK, so I'm torn between adding more admins with proper education on how to fix these attacks (and ban people), or making people PM me or someone else to get access to post. The updated version of MediaWiki allows us to delete the images from the system entirely rather than having porn sitting around in the history.

Could those porn pictures, if of good quality, be available to those who DO wish to have it? It'd be a waste if we weren't able to enjoy the fruits of someone else's labor.
