stet, Thursday, 16 February 2012 23:33 (twelve years ago) link

it said 10,000 reads at one point last week!!

⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 16 February 2012 23:34 (twelve years ago) link

wonder what made all those people google that?

stet, Thursday, 16 February 2012 23:35 (twelve years ago) link

oh wait, i'm only looking at the external stuff. the majority of these hits are coming from inside the house ILX. Checking

stet, Thursday, 16 February 2012 23:42 (twelve years ago) link

I think Mike Hanle y is running some kind of experiment.

The phrase "How beautiful is the gently falling blood" reminds me of reading of a heroin user (possibly famous?) who always injected above a bath of water as the gently falling drips of blood hitting the water and forming "blood flowers" just as he was getting high was the most beautiful/cool/fucked up thing.

Think I did come in via google after looking up some French avant-folk-psych singer whose name I can't remember. From what I recall I should have bought the cd which was still reasonably cheap at the time.

How is "How beautiful is the gently falling blood" the only single hit on google? Deserves more recognition tbh.

Woah I missed this. That was my SN at one stage :/ Tho it was based off something another far more likely to be googled ilxor had said, so who knows.

my blog has seen a spike in traffic for people searching "mexican hipsters" all week

Thursday, February 16, 2012 1:48 PM Site flopson and jetsam (unregistered) has been banned permanently.

⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 17 February 2012 02:25 (twelve years ago) link

not to be all "mods r dicks" but dude is a regular poster-- is a permaban for goofing w/ statscock really worth it?

or was it messing w/ the server?

⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 17 February 2012 02:26 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah, it was -- he was running a one-man DoS. More than a million hits from his IP, and it was still running. Only way to stop him was to boot his IP.

I've also put in some other stuff to stop it happening again. When goofing with the server turns into three hours of work for me, yeh he's getting banned. Don't fuck with our server.

stet, Friday, 17 February 2012 02:34 (twelve years ago) link

wow

Wau wtf! Why would someone ddos ilx?

Lindsay NAGL (Trayce), Friday, 17 February 2012 02:58 (twelve years ago) link

It could maybe be sthing else he was trying to do and some automation or app went mad, I suppose.

Skyrim, no?

That phrase was uttered on here a looonnnggg time before Skyrim ever appeared, so I doubt it somehow.

Lindsay NAGL (Trayce), Friday, 17 February 2012 09:14 (twelve years ago) link

I expect the next Elder Scroll game to involve trucker hats somehow.

(I use ILX2 when trying to find ILX on unfamiliar computers, for some reason it seems easier than trying to remember "www.ilxor.com/ILX"

beware of greek bearer bonds (darraghmac), Friday, 17 February 2012 12:23 (twelve years ago) link

Got a message from him; he set it up to mess w/ the statscock and didnt realise the consequences. Is going to take time off anyway regardless of ban.

stet, Friday, 17 February 2012 13:39 (twelve years ago) link

there's a lesson not to 'cock block

does this mean the ban is not permanent?

xp What an utterly weird thing to do.

HO WBEAUTIFUL IS THE GENTLYFALLINGBLOOD? (Le Bateau Ivre), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:36 (twelve years ago) link

it's funny that someone who would take the time to set up automation to fuck w/statscock would not realize that that basically constitutes a dos attack.

anyway i hope unreg comes back at some point.

call all destroyer, Friday, 17 February 2012 14:45 (twelve years ago) link

haha yeah that sounds like willful ignorance at best

(thinks and smiles) (DJP), Friday, 17 February 2012 15:12 (twelve years ago) link

Uh, WHY was he messing with the statscock is surely the 64k question?

Lindsay NAGL (Trayce), Friday, 17 February 2012 21:43 (twelve years ago) link

Pretty sure his modem was faster than that.

pplains, Friday, 17 February 2012 21:44 (twelve years ago) link
