do not know how many of you were aware of this, but the formerly deleted and protected article on wikipedia about myg0t has been recreated. Lets see how quickly THIS one gets vandalized beyond repair. :naughty:

The only way I can see a myg0t article being there and kept there is if someone writes a genuine, intelligent article that accurately sums up myg0t, and posts it to an admins talk page to post up as a protected page. This is because at the moment, the page gets reduced to '***GOTS RAGHAHG' before a legit article can be written and grow from a stub, so the admins get pissed off reverting and protect the page instead.

 

After the article is put up the admins could just lock it like that, and revert vandalism to that version instead of having a blank page.

Wikipedia admins will delete and protect your article & talk page and remove your entry in the DRV if you feel compelled to actually appeal. They could care less about the fact that you're notable and have references. We are not PC enough for them so fuck that site.

[edit] History

 

[edit] Origins

 

* In 1998 myg0t was formed by a group of teenagers from Chillicothe, Ohio...

* 'myg0t' stands for this

* Anyone can wear the myg0t tag

 

[edit] Half-Life 2 Source Leak

 

* In September of 2003 the Valve Corporation, a video game developing company, discovered that their network had been compromised with keyloggers using Microsoft Outlook exploits. It was later determined that a majority of the source code of their upcoming game, Half-Life 2, had been stolen. In the coming days playable versions of their game became available across Usenet, private FTPs, and IRC services and, thus, the game was delayed indefinitely.

 

* Many members of the Half-Life 2 community began to hold myg0t directly responsible for the leak, naming numerous senior myg0t's as the perpetrators. This rumor was spread around due to a posted copy of an intercepted e-mail available on the myg0t website only a few days before the announcement. During the following weeks a few senior members of the group were expelled (Hitman a.k.a. hitman8) for distributing copies, and a few were scared off and resigned. Truth be told, William H. Valentine a.k.a. Hitman/hitman8 acquired a copy of the original stolen source code and PRE'd it on his warez groups (irc.efnet.org/#2pacmp3) topsite. It is true, Hitman was in myg0t at the time he leaked the source code, however he was quickly expelled and reported to the proper authorities. The stolen source code leak also caused the amount of users in the myg0t IRC channel to surge to previously unseen levels (1,100+).

 

* In mid-2004 the FBI arrested Axel G., a German programmer, for breaking into Valve's network among other things. Consequently, myg0t was finally cleared of any wrongdoing. Half-Life 2 was eventually released in November of 2004.

 

[edit] Recruiting

 

* Part of the hazing ritual to achieve membership in myg0t is to bake a cake and write the words "myg0t owns me" on them. This is to provide humiliation and eventually acceptance into the myg0t family just like any real life fraternity. The rules are as follows:

 

1) Bake a cake

2) Write "myg0t owns me" on it

3) Take a picture of the cake with your face next to it

4) Take a pic of you eating the cake

5) Post the pics in the forums in a thread titled "my cake for myg0t"

The type and color of cake does not matter.

 

* These baking guidelines are upheld very strictly. There have been countless times where an individual will misspell myg0t (ie. Myg0t or mygOt) and be rejected immediately. Additionally, from time to time, rules will be added if there is an influx of cake bakers. Currently, a new rule is to wear a party hat. To date, there have been over 70 failed human attempts and 1 failed dog attempt.

 

[edit] Raging

 

Raging is a method of online game play employed by myg0t, designed to make it both difficult and unpleasant for others playing in the same game. A game can be considered 'raged' when all players have left the game in frustration, or when the game is disrupted to a point where normal game play cannot continue.

 

[edit] Games

 

myg0t has been seen in the following games: Quake Series, Battlefield Series, SWAT series, Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, Half-Life DM, Unreal series, Starcraft, Warcraft, World of Warcraft, Lineage series, Everquest series, Deer Hunter series, keep going!

 

[edit] Notable Rages

 

* Church of Fools

o On May 11, 2004 the Methodist Church of the UK created a 3D Shockwave/Flash based online church for all religions as a way of spreading faith using the Internet medium. Any person in the world with a Shockwave capable browser could enter the church and create a customizable character. myg0t found this to be an ideal target for spreading their own message and decided to enter in groups to effectively 'rage' the other participants. Their tactics included spamming, swearing, praising Satan and other demons, door blocking (preventing people from getting into the church), sermon disruption, and ban evasion. [myg0t]Nineteen84 also found a way to appear to be a warden, vicar or use banned names such as "SATAN", by way of packet editing.

o While a number of wardens (administrators with the abilities to remove unwanted visitors) were created to combat the flood of myg0t members, the church was closed within three months.

o The actions of myg0t resulted in numerous international news stories as seen with the BBC and CNN

 

[edit] Rage Galleries

 

Often, someone who wants to prove to the myg0t community that he or she has successfully raged a game. The easiest method to explain to someone who was not in the game is through screen captures. Often, during a raging session, users will flame and make other personal attacks on the myg0t members, who can then save them as screen shots. After the game, the rager will edit together a collage of the funniest and angriest quotes, and post the gallery on the myg0t community forum.

No, that's called a site made by /b/tards that are gay and very unfunny. Box day was a good idea, though

Almost no one even knows anything about myg0t anyways. The article had about half of it right. Ill give 20 bucks to any non g0t who can name 2 original myg0t members other then g0d.
Vampire, OMP, and the one which name don´t mention out of respect... For the ones who´ve been here long enough know who it was...
