What the hell!
Ok ...
Just talking about it in Dave's pet thread just isn't really bringing to attention ...the... the.... well... the attention we are getting... here at TMO I mean.... In brief ... it was someday in 2011 that we saw the largest number of people online here ... and that number didn't change ... never made it anywhere near that number since... hell most we have 250 to at best perhaps 500 or even 750... usually much much lower...the last few years... The last few days I have noticed alarming numbers of "guests" here... What the hell happened? Did someone with an n810/n800 or n900 go back in time and bludgeon Hitler with it? the new stats on the front of TMO page at the bottom are ... "Most users ever online was 14,420, 11-26-18 at 01:06 AM." what the hell is bringing all these people here?!?!?!? right "now" we are almost at 10 000 guests... what exactly happened ... I would like to know... so we can replicate it daily... (I wouldn't mind distilling it into a cologne ...personally ... :D) |
Re: What the hell!
Relax. It’s just parts of my fan club.
The first rule of my fan club. Do not talk about my fan club! I thinks its regular spambots trying to login but fails ;) |
Re: What the hell!
hahahaha
Dave! wondered when you would show up.... Freaky deaky all these "guests" suddenly appearing... Its like going out to a field.... and suddenly to a single one... allllll the cows look up simultaneously and stare at you... weirdness abounds here Dave.... The sheer numbers of "guests" looking through every inch of the place is ... well... odd... |
Re: What the hell!
yeah...
But almost 10 000 spambots? hm... you may be right ... it could be the precursor to a massive attack... |
Re: What the hell!
I told you that I am being followed by three letters. They followed me here.
|
Re: What the hell!
Who you gonna call?
Jolla refund ghosts hunting us for not keeping the thread alive. |
Re: What the hell!
Maemish....
That...I can almost believe... What you did was just very very very VERY silly. If anything ...yes...they are following you around to see what antics you will do next... I am sure your photo op stunt is actually unifying the secret services of ALL nations...through humor. they are probably txting it to one another... as we speak... and so they want to see what you will do next... hope you can handle the pressure of fame through idiocy... :D |
Re: What the hell!
So what do we do?
|
Re: What the hell!
Ach....
I haven't the foggiest. I've tried calling them all out on their "ghosting" this place... that hasn't worked thus far... I've tried extorting an "admission" fee to join TMO... :D :D :D that hasn't worked thus far... I'm out of ideas at this point. ones that may result in a profit for me that is.... :D |
Re: What the hell!
What's Going On?
Currently Active Users: 10114 (14 members and 10100 guests) we haven't seen numbers like this since 2011 and that figure was a brief blip ...back then... this has been fairly solidly above 10 000 for the last 2 days now... it dips down...but then climbs back up.. at around 3 this morning it was about 5 000 ...and it has just been climbing since then to the current ....now over ....10 116 guests... |
Re: What the hell!
It can also be that I installed something I should not have and every page I go I DDo. There's a rhyme in the last clause. If someone would make a song of me, where ever I go I DDo - without knowing though. Sweet.
|
Re: What the hell!
I had thought of a Ddos attack...but it would have taken us down...
That is the purpose ... Not to mull around and act like "peeples" Hell... at this rate we may break the fresh record of folks online AGAIN... in under a few days from the last... "What's Going On? Currently Active Users: 13249 (16 members and 13233 guests)" |
Re: What the hell!
hahaha
should have kept your post up... It has as much validity as any other reason so far given... give it a few ... and there will be anywhere from 20 to 30 "guests" here viewing again |
Re: What the hell!
I can read acrux his post :D
|
Re: What the hell!
Should I change my name to Legion as it seems I am many? If you check from your logs are the guest here always the same time as I am? Or then someone is using this site to "wash" traffic. Routing through this page to get an accepted proxy for some open source forums. People from google or apple I believe.:eek: Or site is being used for bitcoin mining.

Re: What the hell!
F@CKERS!!!!!!!!!
I thought of profiting off of THEM! (Not that I wouldn't have had a twinge of guilt as I sat drinking a very alcoholic drink with an umbrella in it by a sandy southern beach...had it worked of course.......alcohol is great for killing guilt twinges...) |
Re: What the hell!
Well...the burden of having 13 500 + "guests" is sure a strain on the servers ..
erm.... our server.... uh... our hamster on the flywheel ... maybe someone should change the hamster? or add a second one? hm. maybe "up" our game to gerbil power. |
Re: What the hell!
There we go ...
AGAIN. just rebroke our new record in less than 3 days from the last record breaking event that hasn't occurred in 7+ years now.... "Currently Active Users: 14520 (14 members and 14506 guests) View Who's Online Most users ever online was 14,520, Today at 02:04 PM." If it is an assault of some kind, we need to distinguish it , and block it.,...before sheer numbers of these "assaults" bring us down. If they are "actual" people... well... I'm all for a "culling" ... just too many people on the planet now as it is... ( I mean when Blur sings it...you KNOW there is a problem :D) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQQObIQ63T0 Sooo...if it's a few billion people or TMO ... Some peeps just gotta go out the ol' airlock... "take one for the team" "fast as you can now...run for the cliff edge..!" >o Jump! Jump! Jump! o< |
Re: What the hell!
Have you checked their ip location? Is it Maryland? Or Holy Land? Or East? Or Her Majestys? Visited them all but mi6 cyberrecruit was the only one I googled the right answers for next level. Maybe they are still pissed of.

Re: What the hell!
Why on earth would any 3 letter secret service or multiples of them...
devote the vast sums of money, manpower and might... Just to follow you around Maemish? I mean... you haven't got any significant priceless data they all want, you haven't assassinated any heads of state lately, not even lesser ministers aides to the environment ... So please explain why any of the 3 letter organizations o the planet would be interested in you...? Or any of us here either ...for that matter? I could see perhaps some interest if someone or some peeps here were planning covert ops of some kind that violated some country's laws... But really... spooks are a little more subtle at following people around ...than sending 14 000 "guests" flooding an obscure mobile os forum... |
Re: What the hell!
I have a plan!
Some threads are more intriguing for the bots and they read em longer. Why is that?? If we figure out the words they are looking for and make sure all of them join one specific thread... Then... We delete that thread and all the bots within it. BOOM. Case closed! Next. |
Re: What the hell!
a botplosion!
genius.... a flytrap a honey pot for the bot. |
Re: What the hell!
we need an uber thread....
do we have a candidate? can we use a whole subforum as bait? I suggest something along the lines of a Jolla or Sailfish .... Who will miss it ?... :D... |
Re: What the hell!
If such a thread were made,
how could the initial poster be sure to get participation from the gang here ? Without sufficient support it might get abandoned very quickly... |
Re: What the hell!
They are interested on me as a weapon. I'm unstable and unpredictable destructive power where ever I go and and to what ever I'm in contact with. But let's leave it there and not to open that pandoras box. It is enough if they have noticed what has happened to my parents cars when they have borrowed them to me... To be able to guide that destruction to some hostile country... What agency would not try to be the one in cotrol. I will tell you later today an example and then you will understand.
|
Re: What the hell!
It seems to me that perhaps Captain America ...or Iron Man could REALLY use your super powered help there Maemish.
|
Re: What the hell!
One answer for the traffic which I would really like is that I googled maemo devs and ended up with contact one guy who is in charge some opensource coding projects in finland and online. Asked if he would know maemo developers and if they would like to help with Leste. Later send a letter where described the challenges at hand and put also links to github and youtube presentation. If that took air under wings and got viral among the hidden and secret maemo dev community which has been hiding from Elop in the middle of the earth... and now they thought it's time to come in light and expose themselves to the world...
|
Re: What the hell!
Yup....
totally agree with you a 100%... in fact... they are doing a documentary about it. here is the Trailer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKPwtDjzJMI I saw the first one, very entertaining. It makes complete sense to me that a good 15 000 "embedded" ex maemo devs have been hiding at the center of a hollow Earth, with a Reptilian species and clones of Hitler .... just waiting for their chance to come and "ghost" us here. In fact, If you look close in the Trailer I think you can pick a few of the devs out. :rolleyes: |
Re: What the hell!
Here is a more likely scenario.
In the entire history of more than 20+ years having the exact same email account, which is used for this place, on average my daily spam has never been higher than 10 .... 10 pieces of garbage I had to flush away on a daily basis. I JUST flushed my daily spam folder in my email now... with a count of 259 pieces of spam. Never ever ever have I had to deal with anything of that magnitude. I think our fictitious "guests" had a reason and I don't believe they were here to "help" us by "ghosting" us. They came, found ways around things here, got info on us, and are using it. That seems far more likely than 15 000 hollow earth- living maemo devs. |
Re: What the hell!
My bet is on the Russian, Chinese, NDPK, or Americans...
and I DON'T mean any 3 letter branches.. Just the run of the mill cyber divisions looking for whatever they can.. considering the scope of the work that was just done on this place. and even STILL it is a pretty far fetched possibility. |
Re: What the hell!
I took my parents car and went to a supermarket with my (at that time) 1 year old kid. Wanted to get her to sleep before we aarrive to the shop and for that drove like 10km/h. Fell asleep myself and woke up in the forest side, missed one tree but not the next one. We were both ok but dad got a new car. The one I crashed used diesel and my father always reminded me of that. When I borrowed the next car I asked before left with it that was it diesel I put on the tank. Dad raised hia voice "of course diesel! Do not put anything else in!". As my work I fix things (ironic). In my work I have to figure out how to go around different problems. So when I went to fill the tank and could not fit the pistol in... First check that it really is the diesel pistol. Yes. Ok. Nothing will prevent me from filling the tank. Borrowed a needeling stick from my wife and hold the cover open with that and slowly filled thye tank. After 500 meters the car stopped. On the tank cover it said plainly that unleaded 95 only. Why I didn't read it? I didn't need to cause I had checked the right fuel from my father. Called to dad and asked why he fooled me. He shouted he thought I was just fooling around as usual when I asked about which fuel and he had played along. My mom shouted in the back that you guys stop that fooling around cause it gets too expensive. 300 exactly, 150 eur each. So think if someone have noticed of me being fancy of stuff like kali and tails and such. They know how destructive I am by accident. And that I'm capable of finding solution to go around obstacles. Guiding me to some place with right tools... You need nothing else for total system meltdown and wholesale. Flag flag flag.

Re: What the hell!
Strange, guys. Obviously it's bots, but you all know that by now. That many people will not all be silent. Plus, all that spam.
Was there any damage done? How can you know what was the cause? Atleast the hamster can put up with it, but maybe he or she could use a partner and a vacation. |

What's up? We are down to 275:

Is it with others too but only maemo page that opens to me is Talk. I'm using Opera 12 testing with N900.

Re: What the hell!
"They" aren't done yet...
"What's Going On? Currently Active Users: 9057 (4 members and 9053 guests)" it seems to be like a cyclical wave of them that ebbs and then grows and ebbs again. Perhaps it is some org or person trying to glean info from here and yeah they have to be an army of bots ...literally.. in every last corner of the place ...again. All you ...Maemish.... the rest of Maemo seems so far to be fine. |
Re: What the hell!
Judging from the name of this user (http://talk.maemo.org/member.php?u=77867) it's an attack.
Sound the alarms! To arms! Defend the base! |
Re: What the hell!
That was hardly a subtle undercover username to use ....eh?
Extremely unlikely he is from Vegas as well. Odds are he is from the exact opposite side of the planet. I am sure there must be others tucked away waiting...this guy can hardly be the only one. it seems to run in tandem with all the un-subtle traffic that has been going on the last while.. I have no doubt at least one other of this octopus's shoes is about to drop. |

In the cities and suburbs you will rarely hear an "eh?" But head out to the country, to the rural areas, and folks let the recessive "eh?" gene loose. let it slip I did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssCZWBtwUTI |
