The Planet's Most Moronic Hacker

RawGutts writes "This is the story of "bitchchecker" (the hacker) a user who lost it because he thought he had been kicked of an IRC channel by "Elch". The hacker comes back on the channel threatening to hack and ruin Elch's machine, and dares Elch to give his IP address. The address given was 127.0.0.1. "

    20% overrated? Was the act of putting it on Slashdot so people can read it overrated or was the article itself overrated?

    YOu act like this is a new phenomenon... on any given day you'll find 2 or 3 stories like this, not always on the front page, but they are there.. did you notice the foot icon indicating humor? If you want to change the way slashdot works, I'd say start with the REAL problems, not the stories you happen to not like. Both the games and IT sections have blinding color themes, we get 20 articles linking to ol Roland P.'s blog, duped stories left and right, flaimbait in the article summaries, and countless other things that are IMNSHO several orders of magnitude more important than slashdot posting an old joke that you dont like.

    Seriously, pick your battles a little better, if editors wont listen to the throngs of people complaining about the real problems, they certainly aren't going to start accepting submissions based on your opinion of what slashdot should or should not post.
