I've heard of this "Great Spamming of June 20th," but what exactly happened?

If you mean the I Love Bees incident, then you had a lot of dumb posts spamming these forums with multiple theories based on no evidence. This lasted for a long time. There was blood everywhere.

That's how long ilovebees has been around? I didn't realize that.
Well, then nevermind everybody, I thought it was something else.

eight spammers led by mirandir and obiwanconoli invaded the forums with mass destruction of spam. few suvived but those that did only ask that they be remembered on that sad day of atrocity.

i remember when in the new mombasa forum, people kept starting posts every second with the same crap reapeating over and over for, like, an hour or less. i think that's what they're talking about

I think he was talking after (or before?) that (the Ilovebees thing) ... What happened is simple. Three or four dicks got together, said 'Hey, let's spam all the Bungie boards", and then did it. They didn't get too may spam threads in (all though there were a more than three or four per board) before the mods stopped it and banned them, but the made new accounts and did it again. That's why Bungie hired three of four more mods.

I was the only one of the 8 that didn't eventually get banned. I have since changed my spamming ways (for the most part).
