How to disrupt CU to death
http://www.conservativeunderground.com//forum/phpBB2//viewtopic.php?t=3680

First of all, recognize that they're freeper wannabes, which is even more pathetic than being freepers! So they start at a severe disadvantage.

Now, if you want to just kill the site, 400 or so DUers can quickly hop over there within the next week, sign up, and change the whole tenor of the place. The more who sign up and post over there once or twice a day for the next month or so, the more damage we do.

I wonder if their server could handle a doubling of posts in a week...

1. What would the purpose of that be?
It's one thing to moderate speech here. It's another thing to try to interrupt their free speech on their board.

I enjoy posting over there. I don't want it brought down.

3. I don't believe in disrupting free speech either
no matter how deluded and idiotic and pitiful they are, I wouldn't even think about trying to disrupt them. Stuff like this is what makes America great.

5. Talk about pathetic...
...they are so condescending. They wonder why people like us not only disagree with them, but hate them.

20. And didn't the Freeps and a few gun sites try to invade DU back in '01?
It only makes them look better. Just ignore their site. It's been around since the '02 midterms and hasn't gained more than 400 members!

27. It would put an end to threads like this.
No more talking about CU on DU. Consider it a modest proposal. ;)

2. Why give them the "hits" ?
Just let them die a slow death...No use to help them stay alive, literally speaking of course. :)

4. but if we do that...
..who would we have to make fun of? Freeperville's usual racist, bigoted delusional rants are getting boring.

CU, on the other hand, is the satirist's god mine. even when cons try to be clever, they have to copy Liberals to do it.

6. Hehe.
I think we have already been there. I just voted on their poll asking how Condi Rice did in front of the 911 commission. When I voted it was 52% thought she did terribly. I know my little vote didn't do that by itself.

7. Wow
Edited on Sat Apr-10-04 11:24 PM by Rationality
These guys are losers. It's one thing to dedicate a site to right-wing lunacy like the Free Republic, but these guys appear dedicated to fucking with us, and that's about it.

Why should we sink to their level and try to disrupt them? I'm going to register there just to tell them flat out that they should find something better to do then I'm out, but trying to flood and attack? Why? They're doing a good job making fools of themselves.

28. To tell you the truth, my post was just to fuck with them.
The way some of their posts have been fucking with DUers who come back from their site all bothered. Truthfully, it would be better if no one on DU ever breathed another word about CU ever again. But I know that's not going to happen.

8. This Post from the CU
But the point is.. once youre a star with a 1000+ posts.. you can be pro life, pro iraq war, pro any GOP platform and get them rats going and never get tombstoned. Your a dedicated DU'er! Pro Gun is absolutely acceptable once they dont suspect you.

This board, I think will be my alternate home to DU. I'm glad I learned about you (on DU)

MY TIPS FOR POSTING

#1 - dont show up a newbie and post some GOP thing.. they will spot you in a second... just post nonsense, pretend to be a die hard dean or keebler elf kucinich supporter who just cant stand "conservative" kerry .. and get your count and record set.

#2 Stay away from the Christian Bashing until you are established. I know thats hard since DU is so disgusting.

#3 A good way to get up your count is hang out in the lounge and do their movie things, sports stuff, whatever... all the nonsense that goes on there. The goal is to get your numbers up... posts some LOL's on stuff... they think you are laughing with them, and you are really laughing at them.

9. I am now registered ... CU there...
Of course, we cannot reveal our IDs over there so we'll never know directly who's zooming who.

Reminds me of the first rule of Fight Club: You do not talk about Fight Club.

10. First do a port scan on their server
Note any unusual services with published vulnerabilites.

Find the exploit code associated with the vulnerbilities and see if it works.

Keep at it until you are root.

13. Yeah. What you said.

These are the unsalvageables. They're still too drunk on the Thug Kool Aid. I don't even waste my breath anymore.

14. whats really interesting
Edited on Sat Apr-10-04 11:23 PM by booley
So far most on this thread don't seem all that interested in disrupting CU. Not even me, even though I think they truly deserve it.

HOWEVER... a usual, cons have compunctions about not returning the favor...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=1387470&mesg_id=1387470

You gotta wonder how these guys can't think of themselves as spinless lying hyppcrates. Maybe something in thier food?

Still not saying that CU should be disrupted. (since I am not a spinless lying hyppocrate) but what I am saying is that it's a shame there are so many uninhabited asteroids orbiting ont he other side of the sun.
Wouldn't be it nice if we could send people there..away from us?

sigh...

15. And this does WHAT to help us?
Why should we be afraid of a msall DU-parody site. They've been around for almost a year and a half and only have 400+ members (and probably only 20-30 active posters), while we have 42,000+ and at least 25,000 active ones.

19. Some people just must be lonely or something
to have that much time and feel that motivated to think they have to "win" one in the virtual world. Who cares, they will always be here, have always been here and this is the risk of having a website like this but I wouldn't change it for the world.

21. I'm pretty sure it's against DU rules to post instigations to disrupt
other boards.

In any case, don't we have better things to do?

26. Actually, it isn't against the rules anymore
But I still don't care to post on their board. All this talk only gives CU free publicity.

23. No. That would stoke their egos.
They would start to feel really important in the scheme of things and become even more pompous and unbearable.
