3. Nope, just spammed ...
"Hacked" implies more skill than cut & paste on a script :-)

Well done Mods/Admins.

8. Fredo knows
Michael Corleone: Fredo, you're nothing to me now. You're not a brother, you're not a friend. I don't want to know you or what you do. I don't want to see you at the hotels, I don't want you near my house. When you see our mother, I want to know a day in advance, so I won't be there. You understand?

...Not like everybody says... like dumb... I'm smart and I want respect!"

My all-time favorite movie melt-down.

7. He will be back ...
That is (at minimum) the 2nd time he was banned this morning.

It does suck that it took so long to ban him. He was able to tear off nearly 200 (new thread) posts in a number of forums before he was removed. His posts were the only post in GD for quite some time.

How about a post limit (new thread). Not sure what the patterns are, but does someone NEED to create more than a few post per hour ?

This would have slowed down his attack.

Cheers
Drifter

11. You weren't usually able to do dupe posts in DU v.1.0
Example: I see a kewl article in the New York Times. I post it, using the headline as the subject. It bounces because some other so and so already posted it the same way.

Now you don't even need any content in the message box. You used to have to at least put one character in the message box with version one. That's a serious bug in version two that needs to be dealt with.
