/b/, let me give you a bit of detail about an internet moon game called lunarwars.net. i also want to get this story out just so the collective hivemind of the web knows the fate of one developer and a contingency of anonymous up on the moon.
lunarwars is a lot like cybernations and nation states, except it's on the moon. /b/ has an alliance on CN, and back in March, we completely ruinated their forums (as some of you probably remember). that resulted in CN closing shop for a few weeks because their mods were all butthurt christians who were offended by simple things like child pornography and goatse being posted en-masse.
so, the /b/ alliance moved on to a new game: lunarwars. i rolled with them. at the time, i was a pretty minor member.
so, we spent a few weeks growing. i hung out in the lunarwars IRC room on espernet and quickly discovered that the lunarwars developer, a fellow named sandro, was kinda new to php. so, being a threeleet master of the shitty language, i would offer my halp via PM. at first, it was a few lines of code here and there. then i rewrote a few scripts to be more efficient and patched a few holes up. so then i 'officially' joined the dev team and got all kinds of access to shit.
great. i have been known to roll around the internets and help new guys learn2program rite. so for the first few weeks, things proceeded as they should. us two developers talked nightly, kept our project lists in sync, and i'd halp the other guy learn a few things.
i made a lot of progress on the game's engine. i overhauled the war system and allowed a fuckload more flexibility than that idiot kevin (the admin of CN) will ever manage to put in to his game. it supported any number of players in a fight, three sides to a fight, detailed event logs, NPCs that would randomly attack shit, and a few different kinds of weapons. it was hot.

but then, things got a little less fun. the project founder/'main developer' simply stopped coming on to the internets for a few days at a time, then a week or two at a time. i ended up being stuck 'unofficially' dealing with everybody's problems. all the bugs, all the fights between mods (they were real fags, let me tell you...), and all the other assorted bullshit drama that crybaby stay-at-home-moms and thirteen year old kids with xbox militaries could come up with.
the guy stopped being interested in programming, too. he started talking about making money off of this shit. i mean, seriously, it's a fucking browser based game. this one was still in beta and he was talking about doing a new game with a big commercial release. get fucking real. the main reason i was on this project was to mentor some new guy so he learned properly and didn't fail at internet moon games. and then he pulled that shit? naturally, i was unhappy.
so, all throughout the time i invested in writing the moon game for this fggt, i was a member of the local /b/ legion known as the ELS. like good /b/tards, we were stirring shit up on the moon. we would attack weak players and make them cry, much to the disgust of all the civil players. they called us names. they thought we were war mongers. but none of them would step up to the plate and do anything moar than bawwwwwwwwwwww about it.
then, today, things changed majorly. the first great war started. some fags declare war on us, so naturally since I was an admin, i started doing favors for els. i pulled every financial reserve i had out and send out shitloads of military units. then i ran out of money and started spawning shit to use in my wars. /b/ brought the server to its knees several times through a number of coordinated offensives with people declaring war within two minutes of each other.
it was kinda epic.

then the project lead popped in. i wasn't exactly happy with his faggotree over the past few weeks, but i said hallo and explained why the server was all fucked up and shit. after a few minutes he started getting people crying because i had admin'd myself a huge military and a set of nuclear missiles, so he got butthurt and demanded an explanation. i told him straight up that i was nuking the Farkers for the lulz. he responded as such:
00:09 <Sandrob57> its not about lulz
that was, to put it plainly, the last fucking straw. i'd been running this fag's internet moon game (crawling in my skin, etc) for him, doing the bulk of the development work, and taking care of the server for months, all for free. and then he tries to tell me that internets moon games are not about lulz?
i left the irc network in disgust, deleted my ftp/shell account, and then nuked my game account. i wanted no more to do with this bullshit. i have other projects that can be worked on.

one of the other admins decided to join me in my departure. but, unlike me, he was not going to go quietly. after spending some time fixing broken code, he gave himself a few dozen nuclear missiles and proceeded to devastate everybody who had attacked ELS. people started noticing that we had XBOX HUEG MILITARY STRENGTH (a measurement of how leet an alliance's collective military) and BAWWWWWWing about cheating.
at the same time, els people were going wild. morale has never been so high. people who were not in the war but we hated all the same (annoying politicalfags mainly) were being dragged into wars and nuked (all of their shit is destroyed in an attack like that. their account is basically reset.).
finally, the fagmin got on and noticed what was happening. (actually, i think someone got his phone number and called to taunt him about his shit getting ruined.) he closed the site down with a message 'lol being fixed soon' up. /b/ has succeeded in ruining another game.

but, best of all, i'm the only guy with a backup of before the moon got nuked to hell and everybody got butthurt. im not going to do anything with it /b/. handing it over is more than somebody who doesn't appreciate lulz deserves.
anyways, just thought you'd like to hear our short saga. butthurt farkers, luesers, goons, tribalwarfags, and everything else aplenty. many lulz were had.
take care, /b/.
