Kman,

It was this old and unused area of ACS. Somebody found a way to access it, and a whole bunch of people went whole hog spamming there. Eventually the admins and mods found out, then the crackdown began.

Its true,

Yes, it's called a GP, since GP is famous for taking breaks from Apolyton by asking Ming to ban him for X amount of months. Then he'll unban you if you want to come back later

IIRC, it was CyberShy who found out about Area 25. Of course, there's a conspiracy theory that goes it was a mod or admin who leaked the information.

AH's role in it was to let as many people to know about it as he could, AFAIK.

Lots of posters got nailed, then there were massive complaining and such in the Community forum.

I think it would be wrong for me to blame you for this. It's like blaming a snake for devouring a mouse. Like blaming the plague for killing people.

Wait, I guess that I should blame AH for ratting us out, either.

How long did it take for the mods to find out? Doesn't Cybershy (or whoever) suppose it would have been much better to keep it a secret and slowly spam it?

I think they have tightened the rules wrt new applications. Besides, it's not a public forum anymore: you can't read what's going on without being a member.
