Dear modding community,
With this post, I say goodbye to you all.
Yes, I am Dark Raccoon/Ferghus.
But before I go, I would like to reveal the truth behind the missunderstood identity of "Dark Raccoon".
Many of you say that Dark Raccoon is Ferghus. That is wrong. Ferghus is Dark Raccoon.
This all was a masterplan to earn millions of gold in mabinogi, and I have now accomplished that.
How did I do this?
Well, pretty simple...
About 4 months after I started playing Mabinogi, I noticed someone using hacks. I asked him where he got those, and he said something about google.
So I googled "Mabinogi mmo hacks", and after searching for a long time, Ive found Elitepvpers.
Sadly, they didnt have a Mabinogi Section. But after looking at other sections, I noticed how l33t some people on here were, and how much they could help and teach me, so I started posting thread related to mabinogi and asking for a section.
At this time, I found Mabimods. It was still a small site, but useful nonetheless.
Then one night, when I couldnt sleep, I thought about create a huge net around me that would allow me to gain access to realms that were impossible to reach for someone as computer-illiterate as me. That was when I started planning.
I registered on Mabimods as "[DR]-IcognitoZOOM", and created a Myth about the - back then - unknown Dark Raccoon. I would spend hours in the shoutbox, telling random people about the great hacks and bots that Dark Raccoon has made - those, of course, didnt exist.
When I sensed that the time had come, I registered on there as "Dark Raccoon" and uploaded a file called "EliteMabi". That file was nothing but a .jpg stating that people should stop asking me for EliteMabi. Of course, nobody had asked me, but the dumb noobs from back then didnt know that.
So Serif sent me a PM, telling me that he had to remove EliteMabi because it was too gamebreaking and therefore not allowed on the site (How can a .jpg be gamebreaking?).
However, this was the first sign of success: Serif made me advanced Member.
Without having contributed anything, and just by talking, I managed to get access to the Senior Board. Of course, this wasnt anything special, but being a newcomer like back then, I didnt know that.
Anyways, back to Elitepvpers. By now, Lowfyr had made a Mabinogi-Section and gave me the position of a moderator.
So I made another step: Without having contributed anything, and just by talking, I managed to become moderator. Yes, the site wasnt well-known back then, and I could be happy if there were 2 Posts a week, but it was a start.
Just like that, things went on. Elitepvpers got some more users, and from time to time I checked Mabimods to see if anything special got posted.
I then started to create the myth about the UG "AntiNexon". I knew that the more experienced and intelligent users, such as Adam, Checkbox, or most other famous Modders, would soon find out that the UG was nothing but a lie.
As things went on an the more mature modders started "attacking" me, I started creating other Identities, so that in case anything happens, I could still access the important sites.
Time went on, and eventually Mabizone was created. That was what I had waited for: a new community that is starting to evolve.
At first, I wanted to gain power in that community with a similar concept like I did with the "Dark Raccoon"-Identity, but then I decided to have a little fun and experiment with this new player called "Mabizone".
By the time I decided to have fun, I had already given Halfslashed a real board as well as the .tk-Domain, so I would gain a name in the history of Mabizone.
So then the whole thing started. At this point, Ferhus was born. Originally known as "Dark DevCat", he started messing with Mabizone. Halfslashed had to renew the site 3 or 4 times until I got bored with the role of Ferghus and stopped messing with MZ.
Life went on, and one day I was running a dungeon with someone whose name I will not say in public, for he wants to stay anonymous. Anyways, that person told me about a group of people - he was their leader - called "TheOrder". At first, it was their goal to simply stop Modding at all means. I thought it could be useful to have the ability to manipulate that group, so I didnt tell him who I was, and I joined him.
I started hanging out with them more often, and eventually I told them that I am Ferghus. I didnt tell them that I am DR, as I wanted to keep those two people separated. Honestly, I thought they were going to get mad and kick me out of their group, but they didnt. In fact, they were happy to know that I am on their side. Or at least, thats what they thought. Actually, I was on nobodies side. I was merely a puppet master who controlled several indentities, some of which I will list later.
After playing the role of Ferghus for a while, I began to trust them more and more. I then told them that I am Dark Raccoon. They didnt talk to me for several days, but eventually everything turned out as if I had never told them about the "Dark Raccoon"-Identity.
But their goals changed. They stopped being interested on wether people are modding or not. They started to imitate my role as puppet master, and soon their main goal was to simply create chaos.
And I liked that.
Then "it" happened. The Identity of "Dark Raccoon" had become less popular every day, that was mostly because I stopped caring about that character and acted less intelligent when using his identity. But "it" was the deathblow. By "it", I am talking about the Keylogger-Incident. Yes, I really did get keylogged. After the misterious Hacker screwed up Elitepvpers on my account, the reputation of the Identity "Dark Raccoon" was destroyed. Nobody trusted him, nobody liked him, and that was already the case with a lot of people even before the deathblow. At first, I desperately attempted to save the Identity of Dark Raccoon, but eventually I gave up. Also, at this point some imposters appeared on several boards, specially on Elitepvpers.
After that, Ive used up some unimportant Identities, such as OneNightStand, Joe Martinez, and so on. I didnt really care about wether somebody founds out those Identities were me, so I didnt really do a great job and hiding it.
During that time, "TheOrder" started becoming more aggressive and self-oriented. They keylogged random players and modders, they infected random people with virii, and so on.
Then, one day, I heard about Mabizone getting a new URL. After doing some basic Social Engineering, I got the URL and waited for the site to be completed (That took pretty long, since Half went rage on SQL or something, I forgot what he did wrong.). After its completion, I waited a few days and made two account using Proxies: One called Checkbox, another one called Wallpowerz.
Wallpowerz was banned after a day or two, but the Staff actually believed that I was Checkbox.
So, I made it into the Underground Section and was able to leak Files and post Screenshots of some Threads in there.
I posted a Packet Editor (TS Packet Editor), and some other files along with fake Malware scans.
Since everybody thought I was Checkbox, they trusted me and ran the Tools.
Hell, did I laugh.
I laughed like hell.
I checked the Gmail Account and there was the Data of several people, including shzusomething (However you spell that name), GeminiChris, and Halfslashed.
I saw my chance and use GeminiChris's account to mess around with Mabimods. I didnt do anything bad, just a little bit of banning here, a little bit of deleting there. You know. Stuff that can easily be restored.
I also got all of his other Accounts, but I will list them later anyways, so lets focus. I only took the stuff I needed from his Mabinogi Account and I didnt spend any of the (Around 8k, I believe?) NX he had, neither did I delete any Characters or Pets. I even left him some expensive stuff. The stuff that I did take was sent to an Alt and is being sent from one alt to another by a Bot, for the next few hours. Then, after a few days, I will transfer them onto my Main. And so, I now say goodbye to you all.
Oh, and to the nice and very talented new Moderator Kevsprk:
Good luck in life, your a nice guy. And please dont close this Thread too soon, I do want people to know the truth.
List of Identities I used:
- Dark Raccoon
- Asiate
- DanielForg(e)
- C:\Pleasure\CamSex
- Ferghus
- Dark DevCat
- [DR]-IcognitoZOOM
- A shit load of others
- Quite a few are still not to be mentioned, so I can use them if needed.
What I achieved during this huge project:
- Access to several restricted areas
- Around 40 million gold
- Quite some NX
- Pr0n-Site accounts. (I infected perverts. oO)
That is all.
May the Flame, the Hate, and the QQ begin.
Note:
Some of you guys got really interesting characters. Halfslashed, for example. He started out as nooby faggot, but he developed into a quite intelligent young man. Also, I'd like to let the following people know that I highly respect them and that I believe that they are some of the most experienced, intelligent, and most of all - mature modders in all of Mabinogi:
- Checkbox
- Lostmage
- Kou
- Sasorikun
- Huynh (Did I spell it right?)
- Adam (Yes, I just couldnt help myself to mention this
very mature guy.)
My quote says otherwise! :O
