Are the Anti-Bronies Really This Organized?

[KatonRyu 1,033]

DDoS'ing usually isn't the work of dedicated crackers, especially on a site like this. It's probably a bunch of script kiddies playing around with Hive Mind LOIC who know little about actual hacking. (That's not to say they won't learn how to do it properly, but generally crackers don't want to be noticed.)

 

If they did use LOIC, I hope for their sakes they didn't do it from home, otherwise tracing them by IP would be child's play for the system admin.

 

Anyway, I wouldn't call this an organized attack. A true attack would be far more sinister and would probably at least steal people's logins and spread copious amounts of malware by hijacking reply buttons and whatnot.

Launching a DDoS attack takes little to no knowledge. It's as simple as knowing how to click a few buttons in a program that is easily retraced. It was most likely only done by one person, but hey, you never know.

Hate is never organized no matter how it is put. With a mind full of dark, mean thoughts toward a person or people, there is no way to have a clear mind, when your main goal is to Troll, Discriminate, harm, and emotionally/physically hurt a person. It cant be done.

I've seen numbers of bronies asking "why do they do that, we did nothing to them". Well, in fact we do something to them. You know, what?

We exist.

 

People who waste their time on DDOS attacks or forming some stupid hate groups are nothing more but losers who have too much time and not enough things to do with it. Not to mention it is a pretty easy way to boost one's ego. I will go as far and say that some of them (definitely not all) have mental issues. 

 

So yes, they will keep pestering us on every opportunity. They will act like knights in shining armors who fight evil bronies and they will make posters that will make them look like professional, well organized group of people dedicated to take us down. But if they are really so strong... how are we still here? Answer is simple. Those are only trolls and now everyone can download photoshop etc from The Pirate Bay. Such posters are not a thing that looks impressive anymore, because many people are capable of doing even better ones in their homes in time of 30 minutes. They have no way to get rid of bronies and they are no bigger threat to us than random PC crashes. 

 

Also do little math. Count how much bronies we have out there. And then - how many people are gathered in hate groups. It's not even matter of power. They are heavily outnumbered, because majority of people who dislike MLP does not care about fandom. They don't take part in raids. They don't join hate groups. They don't even waste their time on typing "bronies" in google in order to pester us. They just live their life like normal people. 

On facebook POLISH brony group is bigger than international hategroups. And Poland is one small country! With rather small fanbase. 

 

From what I know anti bronies had little successes. They managed to took down few small pages. Maybe I missed something, but I did not hear about them removing any major MLP website. Under those circumstances - what do I have to tell to them?

Losers. huehuehue.

If the anti-bronies ddos attacks? Then they're just wasting their precious time. We shouldn't really care, we're just minding our own business, watching My Little Pony and talk about it. And they're hating on us because of it. Yeah.. I think they went too far, they need to stop this.
