XBox Attacks - Are you a booter?

Been kickin' too much ass on that thar XBox that some more nefarious character-types are getting a little hot under that thar collar?

Been kickin' so much ass that suddenly your XBox can't find the interwebs with both controllers?

Maybe you've been getting a little DDoS action and you ain't been checkin' your asshole enough to know when someone's been fuckin' it.

According to Cnet News, lot's o' folks been bootin' peoples off the interwebs cuz they're gettin' a little too beaten to a pulp on that thar Gears of War, CNC3 or wherever they take their tarnishin' from.

...see this works better if you read it with a southern accent and drawl a little... then it makes more sense...

According to the article, M$'s response is pretty much, "Wow, that's bad. That probably really sucks for you." Then again, if you were in chat rooms in the mid-to-late 90's, you too were scripting opening someone's CD tray, heavy-pinging their IP address or other such shenanigans (maybe you even hacked their system or to, eh??? You know who you are you heathen!)

Bottom line - maybe try not to clean so many clocks online. That's why I don't use my XBox Live account for gaming - I'm too pussy chicken to get my ass kicked by a 9 year old.
