Surely I cannot be the only Gaian who is starting to tire of all the s**t about 4chan and Anonymous 'raiding' Gaia? I mean, it's ridiculous. So Gaia made a few new items that just happened to be based on popular internet memes, Longcat, Monorail and Ceiling cat, om nom nom, and so forth.
So ******** what? 4chan doesn't own memes. No one does. There is NO COPYRIGHT ON THEM.
Wow. My ******** avatar is shaking in her pixellated Coco slippers.
The only bloody problem is that 4chan seems to be the place where these memes became well known and frequently used - in the beginning. Now, they're known and used across a wide variety of websites, including Gaia.
The only people who give a flying ******** about these items are 4chans newfags, raidfags and closet Gaiafags. The oldfags don't give a s**t. In fact, they tend to ask 'hang on...what were you doing on Gaia in the first place?'
Get. A ********. Grip. Anonymous is not going to raid us. Anonymous have far more better things to do with their time. They are fighting SCIENTOLOGY, NOT GAIA. Don't believe me?
Watch this. A message from Anonymous to another Gaian. Those who have been regular GCDers for a good while should remember the 'G-Corp Labtechs'. Remember LabTech Lead? Before he changed his name, he was 'GAlA - Pools Closed -'. On his profile was links to 4chan which made people think 'OMGWTFBBQ 4CHAN RAID!!!' No. It turned out to be a bunch of users who were bored of no plot update. Let the video go to 1:18, because that's where the video says that THEY HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN TO ATTACK GAIA. And I quote:
'And we also know of your previous theory that the recent hacking of Gaia Online was our doing. We also know that you have since retracted this theory and realised that it was not us. Please note, we cannot be bothered to waste our time with that site.'
Even if 4chan DO raid they will NOT bring Anonymous with them. Even if the newfags decide that they really have nothing better to do, and decide to raid, do you really think they'll cause considerable damage? No.
'But what about Subeta?' What of it? Subeta was a small community. Gaia has over 100,000 users logging into it a day. Subeta disrespected 4chan by claiming Longcat as their own creation. I don't see Gaia doing that. Subeta had poor coding that was easily hacked into. Gaia's is a damn sight more complex. Not to mention the fact that there's at least 92 staff members - probably more, actually - who will be working to keep any so called 'raids' under control.
If 4chan really do raid, they won't be able to get into peoples' accounts. The reason why they did when they attacked Subeta was because Keith Whatshisname decided to go 'oh s**t, 4chan's after us. HERE, HAVE A LOAD OF GAIAN PASSWORDS'. Have more faith in the Gaian staff. Lanzer wouldn't do that. Therefore, all 4chan can do is spam the forums with porn and gore, which can be easily ignored and reported, and then retreat to the guilds.
The last time anyone tried to raid Gaia, they seemed to target all the GD, and sent their trolls there. Because, y'know, a few more trolls in the GD is going to make the world of difference *rolls eyes*. Seriously. The last time anyone tried to raid Gaia, it was so insignificant, I didn't notice a damn thing. So a few people were saying 'we're being raided'. That was the only thing out of the blue.
Jesus Christ, people.
