Simply pwned. I wasn't one of the idiots who formed a bad of hooligans and went DDosing eBaums world becuase kids. it's the internet, not somalia. Grow the f*ck up. These dipsh*ts were ruining the site anyways and I'm glad they are getting banned. Not that I support eBaums world in any way or anything. They're content stealing con artists who need some sort of an actual threat. such as legal action. these guys don't give two sh*ts if some band of 12 year olds spam their forums.

Face the facts, brothers. Ebaum didn't get pwnz0red by Max at all. Ebaum is a piece of sh*t, always and forever. He got his momentary comeuppance but rest assured he will be back at it again in no time, ripping off people and making money off it. That's why he'll always be universally hated and always be the target of Internet community scorn. The only legit way to get rid of him is convince communities to stop linking to him, stop supporting him, and drain his ad revenue. Until then, he's gonna be a dick and he'll keep f*cking everyone over.
Max simply outclassed him this time and bowed out of this with honor. It's the only cool thing to come out of this whole bullsh*t war.

Next time we go up against ebaum, we should petition. Petition in the schools, the workplace, in forums and then send it in and see if it makes an impact.

Who's to say the ebaums rip wasn't parody? I mean, it clearly wasn't because they're too dumb to get satire, but the very notion of claiming intellectual property of them when it's assembled of pictures whose individual copyrights weren't cleared? It's retarded. Do you really think the site owner got the go-ahead from Rolling Stone to use any of the images from their shoot of Lohan? Trying to prevent the free exchange of ideas is a stupid, slippery slope.

It will be a dark dark day when we actually get our sites taken down for taking a small clip of a song. Max we're with you. If it wasn't for you guys I may still be going to ebaum every once in a while thinking they delivered their own content.

^^inkdrinker's got a point. Check this out: a YTMND creator might be able to argue that a combination of image(s) and sound qualifies as "computer software", which would be (c) protected - and as long as the appropriate statutory or negotiated royalties were paid for the sources, he could take, oh, let's say, ebaum to court.

Actually, I'm saying it opens the door to people who have legitmate copyright claims. Like the people we steal from. If you argue that the IMAGE to lohanfacial is copyrighted material (not just the entire page, because all that was stolen was the image,) then the people hold the copyrights to all the shots stolen to make it SURELY have a case. This is why I was saying the war against ebaums is a terrible idea. I'm all for wiping out the site, but because it's stupid and boring and full of douchebags. Not over some easily-backfired copyright arguments. Why max wants to make YTMNDs explicit and implicit stances on copyright the exact opposite of one another is beyond me.

OK, I've stayed out of this long enough. I mean pictures have become a ground for a lawsuit or any litigation? The phone calls? Yes. The threats? Way over the line, but yes. But the pictures at the offices? Come on!! We should fight the good fight and not resort to anything hasty, but they want to sue over pictures? That is bad! These guys at Ebaum's should just get a life, leave the rest of us alone, and come up with some sort of coherent thought of their own. Ripping off ytmnd.com is lunancy enough, but they took it to a completely other level by launching pending litigation. This just plain sucks!!

From an ethical standpoint: YTMND is rap. It (sometimes) takes elements of another source and reworks it into something new. The ebaum site is the equivalent of Vanilla Ice taking an Eminem album, writing his name on the cover, and releasing it. From a "proper" standpoint: YTMND (and NG, SA, et al) are almost always parody. Ebaum steals those parodies and passes them off as its own. Now stop arguing about this immediately, you 'tards.

Remember in his response to Neil? He said he would delete ANY site with the word EBAUM in it. He didnt say anything about e-baum, or e.baum, etc. Even read his news update http://ytmnd.com/news/?news_id=18

DDoSing is a form of hacking. I know that much. e_e; Apparently Neil and Eric have soldiers on there side, too. Good job dumbasses. Wtf were people thinking going up to them face-to-face? Moreover, wtf were they thinking turning this whole thing into a damn jihad? I seriously wished people read the comments more often so they could see the points these guys have made.
Chipping in meaningless "OMG PWNZED" messages only serves to provoke more of this crap. We know Max done good, and he knows it too, but don't you think it'd sorta piss him off that you keep on with the anti-eBaum stuff?
More likely than not, this has just turned into a cause. A cause that people pick up to have something to do. The actual artists and creators should be calling eBaum and simply trying to get a straight answer. If it makes you feel better, tape the conversation. But whatever you do, DON'T ACT LIKE A F***ING MORON. Try to have some goddamn sense and show some maturity.
This whole thing will just keep on otherwise.

I would surmise that this is a contigent of eBaums users who are not willing to let the war end. I guess we could/should take the moral high ground and send their administration notice of this attack. Even though it won't do anything...

The worst part is that it wasn't even YTMNDers who went to eBaum's HQ, it was from what I've heard members of LUE/LUElinks.
