New dawgs in hood

Well, with current amount of custom viewers (most of them ripped of from another), lame XML/Hex patches to Cryolife (hello MrPoenta), and all other bullshits and every dickface trying to earn some money, there seem to be some new dawgs in the hood(well maybe not new, but havent seen them for a bit, so they just reappear).

So, I was browsing internets, minding my own shits, checking blog stats (which are btw awful, but still for some reason same dorks come here and fail-troll), and eventually visited our favorite douche Neil (not-so-open-source) blog. Among other whining and lessons on XML and other bullshits, he had one post saying he will switch to (real open source) Snowglobe version for his shits in future, and tightening his defenses on private viewer, as somebody cracked it and released in wild.

Few easy steps

Would go something like this
1. Obtain as much source code from viewers you can (one way or another)
2. ?????
3. PROFIT!

Change the “????” part with “Compile it to so called private viewer” and you have instant formula.

My monies are too good for SL

Ok, this is fucking ridiculous… Among those who worship Neil and his client, there is one that REALLY stands out from crowd. She stands out with both of her stupidity and monies that is. Here is the deal, while regularly checking Neils blog, hoping stupid fuckface will publish his v6 code (I know Im idiot because still hoping), I have stumbled upon one epic lulz post from this bitch.

Dick extensions, and ass protections

Secondlife Neillife Open source: I am turning off the grief protection by default

Yet again, our beloved douche and skiddie Neil (apart from trying to teach .XML under the hood of SL viewer) proves once again that he is using his viewer as dick extension. Since he doesnt have car for that purpose, yet again, he tries to do that with his viewer.

Gwyn’s Home » Blog Archive » Step UP! for Content Creation Theft Awareness

I really dont know how people expect to fight something when they actually dont know what is going on… From above post (25th of September) Gwyn talks about tool that is “soon to be released”. Thats crap. That is already released EONS ago. From that picture she posted from sluniverse.com i can assume thats Neils free viewer available for download for ages now (and i know that because his viewer dont know how to export avatar shape). But lets go back to topic…

As i already write about “war going on in SL” if you accept to go in war with somebody, you have to act like that if you really want to win. Everything is allowed in war and love, yet somehow content creators of SL so far fail misserably. Not that im on the other side, since im not really, i just keep wondering how content creators plan to fight when they have absolutely no idea against what they fight? Quite frankly, all odds are on that other, darker side for several reasons actually.

1. LL usually dont give shit about that (unless you are premium acc, there is slim chance they will do something serious)
2. All LLUDP transfer from and to viewer is not crypted at all so you really dont need any custom viewer to be able to pick something up
3. Fact that its Open source just make things worse (instead of people helping, they just making custom viewers with various features that cause havoc)
4. Content creators too often frown on “undergroung” communities (mainly IRC and sites) where reall stuff is actually going on
5. Content creators are blatantly exposing themselves on communities making themselves targets
6. and so on…

In short… most of content creators have no clue how hackers get their items copied. As long as its like that content will be copied, people will BAWWW about it and life will go on.

So, content creators, please take some time to educate yourself, instead of just banning people form your lands and bitch about it. If you are not smart enough to be in the game (coppybotters and skiddies will ALWAYS be there) then just quit. After all most of you just pick up textures and skins from Daz3D and Renderosity modify it a bit, and toss in SL for major profit.

Edit 06.10.2009.

I just noticed LOADS of blogs and forums debating about previous lulz and bawwwws regarding asset injection. Mind you that asset id was published on October 2nd and if somebody didnt tipped off creators about it, probably would still be active. So again, try keeping the pace with them if you really want to stop them. (Tho again, odds are highly against creators, but as Han Solo say: “Never tell me the odds!” – while flying into asteroid field…

BAWWWW for skiddies, LULZ for anyone else

Secondlife Neillife Open source: lol

Above post didnt always looked supid like its now. (Tho Neil really know how to post retarded posts on his blog, i can tell you that).
First he posted one asset id which with modified viewer allows you to import that object into your own inventory.
So, what that box contained… Well… Full perms Hippo Vendor Carton v2.6 (scripts inside and all were under default perms, but box itself was freely transferable), couple of combat huds such as Phenom theory and couple others (X-Hud etc…), some Zyngo machine, some prefab house… In general, about 6-10k lindens (didnt bothered to check prices on all but wild guess would be about 10k).
So, people started injecting. At the same time, some other people started reporting :). For example, no matter what i think about SL in general, Hippo Vend (Andy Einfield) is great guy, and his vendor is really nicely done, and would hate to see that one gone due to idiots making their own hippo vendors and selling out shitty ripoffs. Apparently somebody else did that and reported to creators about asset being injected and most probably spread in world.
Same night, apparently loads of people got banned due to abuse reports allegedly issued by Phneom Theory creator resulting in major LULZ, and at the same time major BAWWWW  among stupid skiddies and Neil followers.
Now comes the best part…
Seems like LL decided to really DO something about it. Apparently, they changed asset and set in “trojan”. Soft Linden seems the one responsible for this one, as object and script creator shows him. So he simply set in script inside that dummy box, that will report anyone who rezz that box in world (since asset id is obtained and verified as malicious, its no harm replacing asset) resulting even more LULZ and BAWWWWWW’s at the same time, not to mention more bans from LL grid.
I must say that i was pretty happy seing bunch of skiddies bawing on neils blog what to do next, and him explaining how to unlift bans with LL, among other things getting new router (?!?!).
If somebody actually put his finger on their head, he would come to the fact that you could simply go to no-scripts sandbox and inject object, rezz it do whatever without being detected by phone-home feature some of scripts may have. Of course, this wouldnt be applicable with Hippo vend or custom auto updater scripts later on when you decide ot use it, but for sure wouldnt allow Soft Linden to collect bunch of idiots and ban them on spot 😀
Another example of skiddies getting bashed by somebody who actually use its brain for something else but hair style…

This is almost the same as post with Porn king have moral. Let me give you short intro.
There is one dreaded viewer out there that is called Cryolife. Everyone hate it since it have shitload of pirating features. Wont name them here, as its pointless and those who knows about it already know what it can do. That client has been marked as “greatest plague to SL since copybot”. Nowdays, you can pretty much find it floating freely on internet. Major cevats if you wish to use it is several facts…

Look ma’ im banned

Alphaville Herald : BanLink Security Broken – Shocking SQL Reveals All!!!

Another example how human stupidity is easy exploitable. Second Life, being as large as it is (regardless what anyone thinks about it) urge people to create user content that can via LL API allow people to make wonderfull stuff. In this case, people would easily share their lists of b& (l)users. Need for this kind of service actually came from custom browsers trickery and ability to do various shit on your beloved virtual parcel/land in SL. “Hey this one here is dork, b& him from your lands!” 3rd party exchange service is one of them. And this is what happens when bunch of idiots decide to create service. SQL injection is old as internet itself, well when somebody first time decided that it would be nice to separate layout from content. Idea is good, but poor implementation leads to various kind of shit actually. Poorly written pages that in this case dont escape undesired characters, can kill the crap out those sites. I bet that simple ‘– would do the trick on this site.
So yeah, go ahead, create accounts into all kewl sites that allows interaction with second life and please do leave your full contact/cc/dick size/and everything else so that we can laugh about it when you got pwned.
Of course, owners of that site now cannot be found. Aint it beautiful… just like in real life

Who is who…

I actually feel the need of explaining few things before go on into details. Mainly this is related to SL players that will be involved into future postings. Feel free to comment whomever i have missed, as i dont keep track of names so ill prolly miss someone…

First, Second and Failed life

Well, for simple sake of explanation and first post… I have been using Second life for about 2+ years now. I will not go deeply what im I doing there, and what i do feel in general of it (apart that its fucking sick place to be in), but as narator on Animal planet on beggining of “Whale wars” say “There is a war going on in southern ocean”.
