You moron, he can't tell you the link or it will happen again, lol.
 
It was probably a post claiming the game went gold. Imagine the traffic something like that would get now that VUG has the RC...

You did, I saw it.
 
Wow, I left for like 10 minutes and I came back to this...

Good luck with all this, HL2.net staff. :)
 
Wow, I feel for you admins, now some of your HL2 surprise was coldly snatch from your minds by some immarture script kiddy. Hope it is sorted out soon.

Anything we can do as a community to help, just ask. :thumbs:​

This is just another stage of stupidity the human-race has procured.

Hmm...strange that you were banned. You had a lot of spoiler topics under your name, but I saw just as many spoiler posts from ComradeBadger's account.
 
Fallenangel5, whether it was you or not is questionable. but all signs point to it being one of them new fangled spoiler bots.

Across a multitude of boards mate.

Fallen Angle, you are banned for 24 hours. Just a tempory measure.
 
What happens now? Are the forums locked or is it just our accounts?
 
I was gone for 5 minutes, and suddenly the forums are password protected :O

sorry for all of those who stumbled upon spoilers :(
 
Other Half Life 2 sites were spammed aswell........

Calm down, mate. It may have been you that the bots used to start it out. It will be sorted out soon, I'm sure.
 
What's the point of posting spoilers to other ppl anyway... It's just pathetic. The worst kind of troll.

I believe you dude. I saw just as many spoiler posts by ComradeBadger. Which means it's an attack. Uhh.....by the way.....they're still coming through.

Just wait, it will get sorted out, I'm sure. Right now, they are just trying to make sure that it has been stopped.

A script read the HalfLife2.net cookies that are saved on your computer. These cookies contain your username and password.
 
Nooo i just saw a massive spoiler if its true, i just looked at the bit wher eit says the last topic for each forum section, dont look for the love of god!
 
Yeah, head this warning - I just saw some stuff here:

NO ONE VISIT THE FORUM MAIN PAGE!!

You'll see the spoilers, as I just did :|
 
i don't see posts by me-> opera helps OR i did not click some link ... but it seems that many ppl did not klick the spoiler links and still post, so i assume that opera blocks the script :p
 
I don't think im gonna visit the general forums for a while ;)
