i saw on a 4chan thread that they were going to attack this site.

Call me a retard if you like, but what is 4chan? Some kind of online, Fallout-hating cult? And what do you mean by attack? AngryNorwegianDude 22:14, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

I've never visited it, but from what I've gathered, 4chan is some form of internet forum, with anime-obsessed users and a number of meme creations under its belt.

By attack, it probably means that they'll just spam the forums and vandalize as many pages as they can.--72.65.235.130 21:40, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

So, was Maccy Man their advance scout, that sounds like his M.O.--JiNX Bloodfang 05:57, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

So, the page is going to be vandalized by people who make Maccy Man seem like a boy scout? This means WAR! BRING IT ON!!! AngryNorwegianDude 10:16, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

One question. How did they know of us? Why would they be interested? Gentlemen, I do believe that we have a spy in our midst.--72.65.215.58 15:02, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

(I don't really work on articles on the wikia, just the Forums. I use the Wikia more as a valuable resource than anything else) Sounds like Maccy Man. Also, if its not Maccy Man, sincere apologies. Norweigian Dude, please don't encourage the 4chaners. From what I gather, they're very determined (or bored) people who will take that as a challenge. And I agree with the last guy, you may have a spy in the ranks. Run4urLife! 17:03, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

OK. Please excuse my rather rebellious mood and accept my humble apology, O awesome forum ninjas from 4Chan (though if you vandalize the page, I am going to kick your asses). But please, I want you all to reconsider this situation. Something isn't right here, such as:
  • How could we have a traitor in our midst, and if that is the case, who is this person? This is a wiki page, not the FBI crime file server. Who would want to use time to infiltrate a game wiki page?
  • Who posted the starting comment on this page anyway? Do we have proof that this 4Chan thread that mentions this attack thingy exists?
  • And who would vandalize a perfectly innocent wiki page, besides Maccy Man?
Gentlemen (and gentle-women, too), I do believe we are dealing with pure, unrefined bullshit. The only thing we should fear, is that Maccy Man creates a new account and spams the entire page with cheesy one-liners.
But that is just what I think. Any suggestions? AngryNorwegianDude 18:58, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, my friend. We are dealing with pure, unrefined bullshit. But that's the Internet for you, huh?--72.65.215.58 19:06, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Oh crap... From what I read here, these guys are part of some kind of bored, online hacker guerrilla group. We are in deep shit... AngryNorwegianDude 21:10, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Yep, neck deep in runny hangover shit. Run4urLife! 22:55, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, we are, assuming that this threat is genuine. This could merely be an attempt by the topic poster to cause worry within our ranks. Or it could just be an attempt to to get a quick chuckle out of our reactions. If the latter is the case, then I'm sure that he succeeded.--72.65.238.130 23:52, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Don't say that... I've looked around, and some of the forum threads are actually empty. Nothing big, I think, it could just be amateurs trying to post their first thread, but could it be 4Chan-related vandalism? AngryNorwegianDude 15:00, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
