Apparently so... I would've thought he/she could have come up with something a little more interesting/original, but apparently they couldn't.

Given the amount of responses and how fast they were coming, I'd say that if this was a troll, it was a very successful one. People were very interested and emotional about it.

guess I should change my password now.

Ya think?

good luck getting your husband to believe that...

I never believed it was true, although i thought you made it up as a joke. at least it was the most fun i've had on ATOT since sonz70 became a man whore...earlier that night

change your password to "GOD" so the hackers won't have too much trouble posting some more stuff next weekend

It was kind of funny to see every dork who's ever been cheated on start yelling "WHORE" "SLUT" "WHORESLUT" etc...

There is a lot of pent up anger on these forums ;)

Good to hear everything is kosher.

Yup someone hacked my account memorial day weekend, fortunately they didn't post, just changed my password so I couldn't login. Fortunately, I was still logged in w/ a cookie at work.

Sorry to hear that yours was an even worse experience.

i think the most retarded people are the ones who have "ban tomato" or whatever in their sig. geez....get a life! it's a freaking forum. even if her last post was true or not...do you REALLY CARE?! some people are so mad at you because what...? you post threads that get more replies then them???

personally, i thoroughly enjoy your posts! (and i'm a normal stable girl, not a horny geek who wants you or something ha ha). they're a lot more interesting to read then 90% of the posts on atot nowadays. and the number of people that jumped on you seriously DOES show how pathetic most of atot is. some people just had nothing better to do on a friday night obviously.

on the other side of the fence, you can't really blame most of atot for believing it might be true. i was 95% sure that it was false but a small part of me believed that it could possibly true. it just goes to show that the "exciting" life you've led (read your old threads in case you've forgotten :p) isn't exactly the most "clean" past. at least compared to the lives of most of the GEEKS here. you've had some crazy stories, and this just seemed like another one to add to it. but you seem like you've cleaned up your act but the past sometimes will haunt you.

anyways, i think it's kind of scary how many people hate you and for no real reason whatsoever. ESPECIALLY, enough to hack into your account and make false posts under your name. you've never done anything to them. it's quite strange! i mean am i the only one who thinks this is kind of disturbing?? :p

No kidding... cheating is indeed an emotional topic (I've been cheated on before), but you would think some people would manage to maintain their cool/sense of logic.

Thanks :beer:

I'm reading through the thread now. It's amazing how many people believed it... guess I should change my password now.
the bullsh!t is so thick i can't begin to see through it.

so did you give someone your password or are we supposed to believe someone hacked your account here?

and "just now" you are going to change your password?

you think Dezign spoofed the IP using a Spanish ISP? nothing against Dezign's computer expertise, but I don't get the impression she can do that. ;)
