You’ve lived up to your storied reputation and have found yourself a place in eternity.
After pulling off the greatest hack in the history of eRepublik you will rightfully forever be known as the most defrauding, beguiling, deceptive, and shafty nation of the New World.
From Harrison Richardson (if you're gonna’ call Necrosis by his old name then I'll call Franco by his new name) to Benn Dover to Uncle Sam to today you are, as Lil Wayne would say, "It."
Usually you cheat, lie, and steal to and from your own but you've clearly risen above that fray. You've outdone yourselves this time.
When eRepublik Rising launches in two days, you'll undoubtedly continue padding your other reputation—that of being the most whiny nation in the New World. Be comforted by the fact that the next time you complain about game mechanics or admin-favorability your opinions on the subject will be immediately thrown in the trash.
You’ll be Alex Rodriguez whining to the ump that a base runner distracted him during a pop fly.
Joran van der Sloot whining about prison conditions.
Republicans whining about big government.
Congratulations America! You’re the pater familias of cheating.
I suppose it's all for the better as yet another American criminal has gone the way of Dio (Ronnie James, not Brando).

Actually Indonesia and Russia are the paters familias of eRepublik... Sorry Longbaw... You must have missed Ostin bawwing irrationally about Indonesia and Phoenix's misfortunes...
I know Ostin very well and he had good reason to complain. On my count, he's been banned at least three times as a result of being framed by his enemies.
Dying for your country doesnt help
Killing the other country is just a bit better.
I always imagine you looking like the guy in your avatar when I read your words.
Generalizations rock!
@ Drunkenhero
Who's generalizing? Necrosis (with some other American "heroes" in-tow) committed the biggest crime in the history of this game and the entire United States is celebrating. He's practically an honorary President.
Sorry, couldn't finishing the article wayyyy to much bawwwwing for me. If I would read one more word of this bawww right article my head would most likely explode.
🙂 well, an other Dio is watching you now... and approving.
Sorry, you have Russians and Serbians claiming that it isn't the first, nor the worst hacking...
This was all reversed within 12 hours, basically.
I doubt that he'd be framed 3 times... who are his "enemies"?
Aren't there more important people to frame than Ostin? He's pretty damn low on my list, even in the Australian's list, who'd have the most to benefit from him being banned.
The benefits of being in EDEN/America or Phoenix have been debated, and they come out to be pretty equal in most aspects.
Besides the fact that countries that are more apt to cheat are located in Phoenix...
I had forgotten I was still subbed to you.
-1 sub.
@ Paladin Sutera
I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're saying to me right now. Do you have some sort of a speech impediment?
@ Bristel Akina
Ostin is a big face from Indonesia. I remember when he was a nobody, but now people like you all the way over in Ireland know who he is (and for good reason). Getting him banned is embarrassing for the country. Every time he's gotten banned it's created fodder for ridiculing articles that get 1,000+ votes.
If he was low on the list he certainly wouldn't attract as much attention as he gets now would he, Bristel?
@ ligtreb
It's cool, I never subscribed to yours anyway.
Wow, I never comment on anything. But you have got to be one of the most whining people in this game. Almost everything you publish here consists of you bitching about something. Need a tampon?
@ morningblur
Right, and the EPA is one of the most whining organizations in the world. Someone like yourself who thinks screwing with the entire game is cool will never understand.
It's sad that this didn't happen to America because your epic whine would set records.
What does the EPA have to do with a browser game? Also its a game that needed screwing with. V2 is garbage and it amazes me that they actually made the game worse. Oh and it did happen to America, our president was banned along with most EUS players who were anyone. If anything the ones who pulled this off were more fair with the bannings than the admins are with the way they run the game.
@ morningblur
Only Americans are celebrating. At the end of the day only Necrosis was banned. You make no point.
I don't see why people get so upset with me calling a spade a spade. V2 isn't crap, it just has a learning curve. This game has never really had a learning curve. The curve is found on the forums and IRC.
Cheating is what sends people away from this game, not v2. V2 will make this game huge. But, it's like I said, a GFag won't get it.
@ Harrison Richardson
I always imagine you looking like the what is in your avatar when I read your words and what u have done in your term
Whats the full story with this guy?
Didn't he piss on allot of peoples chips?
"the MOST whiny"?
naaah.
'Cause that award's long since gone, to an individual.
/me holds up a mirror for ya.
( a nice one, polished ancient bronze, so you are in fuzzy-focus and look noble 😛 )
You know he gave the account info out on the eUK IRC?
I do agree that the whole thing is a bit blown out of proportion, but hey, Necrosis wanted to go out in a big way, and he did. No one comes close, as far as I know.
Longbaugh is far from whiniest. He's a gonzo reporter, it is his job to be infuriating.
@ Bristel Akina
Finally someone gets it right.
@ Grainne
Try using less eccentric punctuation and I might make it through at least one of your comments. 😛
I dunno what you lot are on about, but thats nothing new.
What type of pie should I make today?
Shepards pie or Chicken Pie?
Also like Henry complaining about a handball?!
Longbaugh BAWWWWWWing as usual, what's new?
Why did it take the admins 6 hours to react to such a breach in security?
Any decent game with halfway decent security would have shut him out within the hour. The fault isn't GF's or certain American citizens, the fault is the Admins being more concerned about creating as many gold sinks for v2, and not addressing security issues that will no doubt multiply when v2 goes live.
Finally Longbaugh, you're just jealous because you weren't banned, you will never think of anything half as clever, and when you leave the game it will be no where near as glorious. http://livingelpaso.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/haters.jpg">http://livingelpaso.files.wordpress.com/[..]s.jpg
@ johnpauljones
It's not GF's fault? How does that work? If I rob a 7-11 is it their fault for not having an on-duty security guard or is it my fault for robbing the damn 7-11? Your weird logic suggests you're younger IRL than I initially thought.
Furthermore, the whole "you're just jealous" thing is getting old. You people have been trying to pin emotions on me since I left the country. First I was butthurt, now I'm jealous. You know that I'm neither, and always have been neither, so get over it already.
In all honesty, I have no idea how to hack and am retarded with coding. I've never spent hours on end trying to learn. I never will. And, I'll never regret it.

You spoiled my breakfast.
Notice the industrial sized tub of vassaline on the bottom left.
I feel unclean
You know what would be swell? If you told us what the hell you were talking about.
Whatever. I'm sure it doesn't matter.
