Default The Demise of Hyperlobby

Not enough has been said in appreciation of Jiri's creation of Hyperlobby and the efforts he has put in over the years to provide a free place for us to gather and converse and fly the sims we all enjoy. Many of us are very thankful..but more and more Hyperlobby is being populated with those with zero respect for what Jiri has accomplished.

Sadly now, Hyperlobby is going the same way that the ol' Microsoft Zone has gone.

The absense of any moderators on Hyperlobby is obvious. The moderators have simply left and there has been visually zero effort to replace them. The level of troll like behavior is at an all time high.

And now , the news of Hyperlobby itself being hacked.

http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...3/m/2441022267


No one is sure how to contact Jiri now that the Hyperlobby Forums have been deactivated.

Many of are unsure of the future of Hyperlobby. There isn't any concrete information on how SOW will be configured and how servers will be handled . If SOW will be hosted on Hyperlobby , no one knows.

Meawhile , an historically healthy and active community has been left holding the bag at Hyperlobby fending off these trolls and hackers.

Really? What can we do to defend it?

Maybe another good point to face the fact, that with all the talented and rightful modders, these hackers are part of our community as well. They read our forums, they even post and then they substract 500kg from the plane-weight and go for a fight.

And as in the HL-case, what can we do against it? Probably the same: Put on the rose-colored glasses and say it doesn't happen in large numbers and flame, kick or ban some nicks or IPs.

There is only one way to protect your websites with all the hackers and crackers, since they are not being prosecuted with any real effort.

Make complete backups of websites frequently. This is a lot of work, especially on large sites... there is nothing else you can do.

Human beings are intelligent, resourceful, and often mean spirited. You can't keep'em all out.

More like MS Zone....? Well its time to move on.

I always said, if you want to fly historically online, you have to go private servers where you get to know the people playing. Hard work yea so is life.

As I fly on UK time I don't see any problems in the Lobby any where between 15:00 to 23:00 GMT

What times are these hackers and "Zonesque" upstarts around ?

Default Hyperloboby rules

That would be sweet if hyperlobby 2 was out for BOB SOW. Like nostalgia / tradition.

Props out to Jiri for making HL.

last time I checked on HL, the demise wasn't apparent. Then again they said the world would in 2000 because l33t haxors would hack the world because of double digits.

And its supposed to end in 2012 too, because of l33t storm pwnage and calendar outage.

I think though, 2012 will be for enjoying BOB SOW.
