Sigh. This is pretty much how I feel right now. Congratulations, Turkish hackers. You’ve proved to the world that you’re annoying.
I’m working on fixing it, but it’ll stay down until I’m happy that I can get it back up without losing any data. Till then, try Team Vanilla and Short Wharf for your fapping needs.

It’s less of “misguided sense of nationalism” and more of “absolutely moronic” – it would have literally taken them 2-3 minutes to actually glance over the main page and conclude that the LWB coalition doesn’t host any actual CP content.
And I don’t see how taking down CP can be equated to nationalism in the first place. You can argue that it’s a good, decent thing to do and that hackers taking part in it shows that hackitvism can be used for good – but in the end, how does it even relate to nationalism? Did all the people of Turkey agree to launch a net campaign to tear down CP? Did the Gov of Turkey launch such a campaign? It seems to me more like these were a bunch of hackers who were doing it “for the evulz” and using their nation as a piss poor excuse.
The lot above were being bigots, yes. But I can sorta understand how that hatred could build up when these hackers choose to associate their actions with their nation. “I’m taking down this site … FOR TURKEY!” just tells the rest of us that anybody from Turkey really doesn’t like this site (even if that may not necessarily be true).

To set the record straight, the attack had nothing to do with CP. We weren’t even targeted, specifically. From what we gathered, we were part of a larger attack on a list of Godaddy domains that the Turks had hacked. They hit everyone. Not just us. Unfortunately, we’re not trained to handle such an attack, nor is it our day job. So it took a while to fix.

Turk here, while their misguided sense of nationalism is plain out utterly stupid, (probably they thought it’s all child porn here) the kind of backlash vs all Turks by site visitors once again prove that stupid is stupid in every country. Turks also frequent sites like LWB and read hentai, just FYI, ignorant bigots. Take on someone that’s not underrepresented next time you talk trash.

Funny that they’d hack this site instead of sites like mangafox that keep doing illegal stuff like opening counterfeit merchandize and selling the crap. Long life mislead fanatics, yay.

They didn’t hack the site, they hacked the direction server. Data is unharmed while the result is more hate for Turkish gentlemen… who don’t seem to understand how obnoxious they are.

Wouldn’t be surprised that he was having surpressed Turk Rage, since most of their females are hairy and sweat smelling like the guys.

I guess he’s just pissed off that his impotent, religious-fundamentalist rage will never get him a woman that can do anything more than be afraid of him, much less an adorable 2D loli that loves him from the bottom of her wonderful heart.
Haters gonna hate. Loli gonna lovely.

Our homepage was turned into this (complete with looping music) minus the Kuroko, plus the flag was moving: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELkG60d24i8
Already been a year since then, huh…
