Julie, you asked for evil, I will present you with evil.
I have made 2 unpublished hacks in my forums. I call one
misery, and other one is called
starvation.
This is a quote in how I explained misery to my moderators.
Quote:
More info to keep:
Here is what happens to a miserable user:
- There is a random 60-120 second delay each time they click on a link.
- 90% of times they have no search engine acccess.
- 75% of the times they get the server too busy error.
If they don't get the server too busy error:
- 50% of the times they may get a blank page
- 30% of the times they may get forwarded to the forum main page
- 20% of the time they may be able to see the page they asked for.
after doing all the math in actuality they have only a 5% chance of seeing the page they clicked on. What kills them is the time they have to wait before anything happens.

And with the starvation, this is what the users get:
- A 10X flood check time
- No more than 20 characters per post.
- No displayable signature or avatar
- A board view with no colors
- A board view where every graphic is a
red X
- No access to the search engine
So if any of these inerests you let me know and I will publish them.
I have a couple other ones, but these are the ones that drive people insane.
