Now, if only they could ban the wretched Metallica-album with the same name, that would really be a victory for good taste.

I've banned their IP's so they can't 'call' the images now, so I'll change them back in a day or so. lol...

Sick people.... sick.... SMMMMMMMMACCCCCCK!

LOL nice one Z, now you just get free advertising!

I have to say I love that idea, lol, would it work to ban an IP though? could they not just change addresses if they like it that much? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

LOL, at first I thought this thread had something to do with the activities in the ORT building thread [img]tongue.gif[/img]

It's their server that 'calls' the image, since its on their servers. So blocking their servers IP and nameserver, they get a big fat red X now. lol!

pcgiant · 12-05-2003, 05:49 AM

LOL! Well done, Ziroc!

Top stuff Ziroc [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img]

You must have some good detection and anti virus stuff

maybe those people can be sued for copyright infringement?

Cloudbringer · 12-05-2003, 09:16 AM

No,Kakero, that would only apply if the images were original art by Z. In this case what they are doing is stealing his bandwidth by calling the image from our server instead of hosting it on their own.
