producer snafu Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 'Minecraft' Fans Hijack 'Minecraft' To Get More 'Minecraft'[/b] This story makes me realize that, from time to time, I really hate this planet. It seems that fans of "Minecraft," the open-world, retro-styled sensation, have hijacked the official "Minecraft" site with a large denial of service attack. The site is currently accessible, but current users won't be able to log on and new users won't be able to purchase new versions of the game. What was the reason for the hijacking? Apparently the hackers want more updates to "Minecraft." The mind boggles. A post was made on 4chan, supposedly from the party responsible. The post stays the denial of service attack is "a clear message of how the future of minecraft [sic] will turn out unless he gets to work, namely by influencing the amount of sales taking place, due to the attacks." In other words, "Put all the money in the bag and no one gets hurt." Markus Persson (aka "Notch") is the game's designer and posted on his personal blog about the attack, saying that he wasn't sure why "Minecraft" was being targeted. We all know how much the anonymous internet masses hate big publishers like EA and Activision, but in this remarkable situation, hackers are targeting a tiny indie developer whose current staff total is six. Sure, he's been successful and sold a lot of "Minecraft," but to think that players can use threats and intimidation to get an update out is just plain terrible. The fact of the matter is that the hackers know they can pick on an indie developer with no major publisher to back them. It's digital bullying, basically. It's also surprising that this is happening with a game like "Minecraft," where you spend your days quietly cutting down trees, digging holes and smelting ore. We all know the reputation of the cliched "Call of Duty" player, but I never would've guessed that there would be anyone that obnoxious in the world of "Minecraft." Sadly I was wrong.

kaini Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 are you unemployed kaini? or do you just have a lot of free time? i was made redundant a couple of months back (they moved the whole kaboodle to egypt, globalisation, military-industrial complex blah blah). i'm kinda making the most of it cos i'm due to start in a web design/admin position with a new design startup in a couple weeks, all going to plan. i'm really digging the way this is going (connected a couple of overhanging cliffs, working on the circular building...) - it's the first time i've set out to really make a big, big structure.
