At around 4:40PM Eastern time, we had a bit of a disturbance on our network.

A disgruntled competitor of BitTraffic and ex-user of mIRCaddict decided to convince one of our server owners to switch to his network and give total control to him.

This user, which most of you are probably aware of, Brainkill, owner of a ghetto hosting company, decided to change the Routing password, which IRCops use for routing purposes and give himself NetAdmin access, to GLINE the entire network.

During this time, We regained control over the network, removed the IRC server in question, and GLINE’d Brainkill.

Our IRCops Amun and Hyper (mIRCaddicts Website Administrator) tracked down the culprit, called him up on skype, and recorded his confession.

The confession can be listened to Here.

In the future, we hope to bring better security to the network so this WILL not happen again. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience this has caused our users, and hope you can forgive us for the downtime.

If you have any questions or comments, please connect to the network Here and tell us how you feel.

Your friendly Admins,

Amun and Hyper.
