StickyDrama loves Stickam, we really do—-when it works.  But for the past week, many Stickam users trying to go Live or join a chatroom have encountered a frustrating obstacle.

Large numbers of users are unable to enter chatrooms or Lives—even as the host.  The problem has persisted since last week; StickyDrama notified Stickam employees last week, yet the problem persists.

The employees claimed to have been unaware of the issue when StickyDrama first brought it to their attention.  No official response as to the cause of the connection errors—much less a solution—but  Stickam users have offered a plausible explanation.  Supposedly, a hacker somehow affiliated with the Yellow Fever chatroom has been attacking all of Stickam’s servers—except the server on which the Yellow Fever chatroom resides.  Out of nowhere, the Yellow Fever room has been topping the Group Chat charts, while the old guard of Show-N-Tell, Singles Chat, StickyDrama and others haven’t even been able to keep their rooms up for an hour before they  crash.

Users’ Lives seem affected as well.

Whether the connection errors are purely a technical matter or an outright attack, Stickam would do well to fix the problem quickly.  Complaints such as “Stickam’s shitty servers have gotten shittier” are becoming increasingly common, and in part explain the network’s falling traffic of late.

The recent pornographic attacks on Stickam’s chatrooms and LIves are increasing in both their frequency and obscenity, and the company’s web security officer seems unable to close whatever vulnerability the attackers are exploiting. StickyDrama was visiting the Gay & Bi chatroom when we managed to screen-record the latest round of mischief.

While initially StickyDrama was amused by the naughty little clips—we almost never complain about cock on Stickam—last night things went too far. Whereas before reloading the chatroom ended the attack, now reloading does not resolve the problem. To rid our own room of attackers, it was necessary to kick all users we did not know—pretty much all but a dozen or so regulars—and then reload. In this regard StickyDrama fared much better than other large rooms such as Gay & Bi, Show N Tell and Singles Chat, who had fallen far down the chatroom list; as of this post the other large rooms have not fully recovered their usual traffic.

Being the only large chatroom has its headaches, namely the constant onslaught of spam—especially the dreaded “white space” spam. While we’re on the subject of security, and hopefully have the attention of someone in a position to improve the status quo, may we humbly suggest 3 improvements to combat spammers and other rogue users:

Enable chatrooms to ban users, even when they’re not in the chatroom. Unlike Lives, chatrooms cannot ban users; chatrooms should have a ban list too. (Giving chatroom hosts the option to turn PMs on or off would be nice too.)

Limit the number of lines of text or code users may post in main chats. No one except a spammer would use 50 lines text! Five lines should be more than enough for anything that anyone has to say.

For both chatrooms and Lives, hosts should be able to lookup statistics of which mod kicked which user, and when. This would enable hosts to identify which of their mods’ accounts had been usurped by another user—usually to kick a room empty. Hosts should have a “mod list,” much like a ban list, and be able to de-mod a user even if they are no longer in a chatroom or Live.

“A powerful programmer named Carb0n” suddenly struck Stickam’s larger chatrooms earlier tonight, disrupting hundreds of sleazy faggots and str8s looking for their evening camwhore partners.

For those readers unfamiliar with this lulzy form of assault, “rickrolled” refers to forcing one’s victims to watch the corny music video “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Rick Astley. According to an April 2008 poll by SurveyUSA, at least 18 million Americans have been rickrolled.

The attacks came suddenly, without any of the threats or boasts which little hackers and script kiddies tend to make. Targets were confined to the larger chatrooms; besides StickyDrama, Singles Chat, Gay & Bi, Show N Tell, and LTN*AZN*BLK*WHT were also victims of the exploit.

There is some debate as to whether these attacks were actually initiated by Carb0n, or whether Carb0n is the person who wrote whatever program exploits the vulnerability in Stickam’s code. Many users on Stickam have the display name Carb0n.

In addition to Carb0n’s credit which StickyDrama managed to screen-record during the first round, some users reported seeing the following message during subsequent attacks: “Stickam is exclusively for jews, niggers and emo fags who drag the blade from side to side.”

We don’t hide it: StickyDrama is owned, run, and frequented by faggots. But not by lame faggots. Lame faggots tend to congregate in Stickam’s Gay & Bi room, and to a lesser extent in the Gay & Bi & Str8 room. Str8 readers who don’t care about lame faggot drama should just stop reading here.

For the few who actually care to know, the Gay & Bi room used to be the only room with “Gay & Bi” in its name, and was run by a group of lame faggots known as The Empire, whose members were denoted by the tag EMP. Dominar, whose real name is Bobby, was Emperor of The Empire, which entitled him to boss around all the other lame faggots. Whoever could put up with Bobby’s bullshit was promoted to higher ranks within The Empire, and was allowed to ennoble themselves with such titles as Princess and Marquis and Lord, and The Lame Faggot Empire was born.

Pomp and ritual was an integral part of the Empire’s promotion process. In order for lame faggots to earn higher rank, members had to camwhore for Bobby. Bobby is apparently a horny lame faggot, and as a rule won’t let any other lame faggot call himself a Lord or whatever unless he jerks off on cam. (Mind you, calling oneself a Lord or a Marquis or even Emperor has absolutely no effect on one’s Stickam status; in their chatroom, like all other chatrooms, there are only regular users, mods, and the host.) Every now and then, some lame faggots would feel the need to vent their frustrations with Bobby’s rule.

Jerking off for mod is no rare policy in any Stickam chatroom or Live. In fact, it’s probably the most common path to green status. But what made The Empire’s policy so eyebrow-raising was the formal WRITTEN “application process” by which Dominar reviewed his lame faggot underling’s fappage—a perverse degradation which ran counter to The Empire’s hypocritical mission statement:

Readers can find Dominar’s n00dz on our n00dz page. We also link his xTube account.

Eventually some lame faggots had enough. They didn’t like dealing with Bobby’s attitude and strict rules, told him to fuck off, and they formed their own group, The True Fellowship (TTF, whose members hang out in the Gay & Bi & Str8 room) led at first by Angry Beaver and more recently by Rooster. The dust from the schism still has not settled; The Empire became UCA, and no one can yet figure out what the fuck that stands for. By most accounts TTF is less lame than UCA—at least StickyDrama isn’t kicked on sight by TTF mods.

Feel as though this post is pointless? You’re probably right. It’s just about lame Stickam faggotry. If you want real news, go read a real newspaper.
