Stage 6 down. - AnimeCrazy.net Forums

Scotty T14 · 02-10-2008, 05:51 AM

At approximately GMT 4am 9 Feb 2008, stage6.com was hacked by an unknown hacker posing as eBaum's World. People visiting the frontpage of Stage6 were being redirected multiple shock sites. This lasted for about two and a half hours before a site maintenance notice was put up by the Stage6 team. The motive and extent of damage are still unclear at this point, but it has completely crippled Stage6 for the time being.

The current message at 11:00 PM EST upon visiting the site reads that "we are unable to service this request" with no links to the Stage 6 content.

A partial list of Email addresses and passwords for several thousand Stage6 users was released by the group shortly after the attack began in the form of a plain text file posted to 4chan's Random board. The file has since been removed from the site. Users affected were mainly those who had registered a new Stage6 account between December 11, 2007 and February 9, 2008, though the hacker(s) may have accessed the entire Stage6 user database compromising all user logins and might be sharing them over IRC.

Several threads on eBaum's World and various forums have been deleted regarding the hacking of Stage6. The posts ranged from simple "Why did you do this?" threads to malicious verbal insults against the site.

-Wikipedia.

Just a small note to those trying to use the site.
Please lock when Stage6 is back up.

Damnnnnn, Insaneee.
And this is why Ac sticks with Veoh lol.

Scotty T14 · 02-10-2008, 05:54 AM

Veoh can just as easily be shut down like Stage6.

DarkUmagon · 02-10-2008, 05:58 AM

True...However, it hasn't been downed yet

That being said the main reason we don't use divx is that they are very very active in deleting anime. Look at Naruto ship episode 44 or 45, we had them on divx and now they are deleted.

Scotty T14 · 02-10-2008, 06:03 AM

It'll change, give it time.
Remember that Youtube was extremely strict like that at the time.
(Now it's so big, it's hard to keep track of such trivial things such as deleting anime. It's downfall will be its popularity.)
So, it's only a matter of time until Stage 6 grows.

(I'm so worried about my account :S)

people at ebaum's world always say they hacked a site it doesn't mean they did and wikipedia isn't very reliable for accuracy but it does seem to be down. They better not have my password.

I'll let you in on a little secret.
Ebaums can't do Sh**.

It was obviously 4chan.
4ch loves doing this and that and saying they're from ebuam's, which is obviously fake since I've done it myself.
Wikipedia is extremely reliable. You only know something is fake on there when its ridiculous.

wiki is good for vast amount of info on one subject but still not accuracy. People make small changes because they think what they are puting in is the truth but they can be misinformed. Isn't 4chan just an image board? Theirs tons of hacker posers on the internet.

Oh my.
You only think of 4ch as an image board?
Well, think what you like, I know for a fact that nobody does sh** better than 4ch.
