Neil, you have a gift for understatement. :)

I think this line is the big tip off: This forum is now 4chan's bitch
The one truly funny thing is he or she signed it "Anonymous", after telling us that it is 4chan. Perhaps 4chan needs to hack another site and look up the meaning of Anonymous.

The site is currently undergoing maintenance.
Please try again later |

LOL. I said "suggests" because I didn't go to the website in case it had nasties on it. I suggest others stay away for a bit too! |

"Anonymous," or 'Anon' as they often go, is actually the name of a more-or-less unified group of posters on 4chan.org. You may remember recently they dressed up in Guy Fawkes masks and picketed a scientology building.
BTW, 4chan.org is most certainly NSFW, and really not safe for the human soul in general. It's where people go when they've lost too much of their soul to the internet. Which is kind of telling that I know this much about them. :P

+1 for me, too.
When I go to the magazine's site, it says, "You are not authorized to view this page".

Faggots: hehe, both versions would be correctly spelled :)
Moreover, I'm really curious about the reason behind this attack. They're still not in the air...

Guess they actually meant maggots :) |
It is spelled correctly, with two g's.

Yeah, but I have a feeling that 4chan is not referring to "a bundle of twigs, sticks, or branches bound together". ;-)

I'm afraid you're right.
I just noticed everything at dcmag is still off. |
