Over 12,700 Credit Cards, 10,700 Direct Debit Records Stolen From SOE

05/02/2011 Written by Sebastian Moss

With Sony finally set to get back on its feet after an “external intrusion” caused the PlayStation Network to be brought offline, Sony Online Entertainment have now announced that hackers may have obtained credit card and personal information from thousands of subscribers.

In a press release on the SOE website, the company announced that, despite previous denials, hackers manage to access SOE’s servers, along with the PlayStation Network’s, something that was only discovered “less than 24 hours ago”:

Our ongoing investigation of illegal intrusions into Sony Online Entertainment systems has discovered that hackers may have obtained personal customer information from SOE systems.  We are today advising you that the personal information you provided us in connection with your SOE account may have been stolen in a cyber-attack.  Stolen information includes, to the extent you provided it to us, the following: name, address (city, state, zip, country), email address, gender, birthdate, phone number, login name and hashed password.

Customers outside the United States should be advised that we further discovered evidence that information from an outdated database from 2007 containing approximately 12,700 non-US customer credit or debit card numbers and expiration dates (but not credit card security codes) and about 10,700 direct debit records listing bank account numbers of certain customers in Germany, Austria, Netherlands and Spain may have also been obtained. We will be notifying each of those customers promptly.

There is no evidence that our main credit card database was compromised. It is in a completely separate and secured environment.

We had previously believed that SOE customer data had not been obtained in the cyber-attacks on the company, but on May 1st we concluded that SOE account information may have been stolen and we are notifying you as soon as possible.

SOE has taken several steps to ensure that future attacks will not happen, and are attempting to work out what exactly happened:

  1. Temporarily turned off all SOE game services;
  2. Engaged an outside, recognized security firm to conduct a full and complete investigation into what happened; and
  3. Quickly taken steps to enhance security and strengthen our network infrastructure to provide you with greater protection of your personal information.

Once again, Sony encouraged consumers to look out for email, telephone and postal scams that may come as a result of your data being sold to the highest bidder. Continuing:

When SOE’s services are fully restored, we strongly recommend that you log on and change your password. Additionally, if you use your Station or SOE game account name or password for other unrelated services or accounts, we strongly recommend that you change them, as well.

The news will come as a blow to Sony, who recently apologised to consumers for the PlayStation Network security breach and downtime.

Dear Valued Sony Online Entertainment Customer:
Our ongoing investigation of illegal intrusions into Sony Online Entertainment systems has discovered that hackers may have obtained personal customer information from SOE systems.  We are today advising you that the personal information you provided us in connection with your SOE account may have been stolen in a cyber-attack.   Stolen information includes, to the extent you provided it to us, the following: name, address (city, state, zip, country), email address, gender, birthdate, phone number, login name and hashed password. 

Customers outside the United States should be advised that we further discovered evidence that information from an outdated database from 2007 containing approximately 12,700 non-US customer credit or debit card numbers and expiration dates (but not credit card security codes) and about 10,700 direct debit records listing bank account numbers of certain customers in Germany, Austria, Netherlands and Spain may have also been obtained. We will be notifying each of those customers promptly.

There is no evidence that our main credit card database was compromised. It is in a completely separate and secured environment.

We had previously believed that SOE customer data had not been obtained in the cyber-attacks on the company, but on May 1st we concluded that SOE account information may have been stolen and we are notifying you as soon as possible.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the attack and as a result, we have:

1) Temporarily turned off all SOE game services;

2) Engaged an outside, recognized security firm to conduct a full and complete investigation into what happened; and

3) Quickly taken steps to enhance security and strengthen our network infrastructure to provide you with greater protection of your personal information.

We greatly appreciate your patience, understanding and goodwill as we do whatever it takes to resolve these issues as quickly and efficiently as practicable.

For your security, we encourage you to be especially aware of email, telephone, and postal mail scams that ask for personal or sensitive information. Sony will not contact you in any way, including by email, asking for your credit card number, social security number or other personally identifiable information. If you are asked for this information, you can be confident Sony is not the entity asking. When SOE’s services are fully restored, we strongly recommend that you log on and change your password. Additionally, if you use your Station or SOE game account name or password for other unrelated services or accounts, we strongly recommend that you change them, as well.

To protect against possible identity theft or other financial loss, we encourage you to remain vigilant, to review your account statements and to monitor your credit reports. We are providing the following information for those who wish to consider it:

U.S. residents are entitled under U.S. law to one free credit report annually from each of the three major credit bureaus. To order your free credit report, visit www.annualcreditreport.com or call toll-free (877) 322-8228.

We have also provided names and contact information for the three major U.S. credit bureaus below. At no charge, U.S. residents can have these credit bureaus place a “fraud alert” on your file that alerts creditors to take additional steps to verify your identity prior to granting credit in your name. This service can make it more difficult for someone to get credit in your name. Note, however, that because it tells creditors to follow certain procedures to protect you, it also may delay your ability to obtain credit while the agency verifies your identity. As soon as one credit bureau confirms your fraud alert, the others are notified to place fraud alerts on your file. Should you wish to place a fraud alert, or should you have any questions regarding your credit report, please contact any one of the agencies listed below.

Experian: 888-397-3742; www.experian.com; P.O. Box 9532, Allen, TX 75013
Equifax: 800-525-6285; www.equifax.com; P.O. Box 740241, Atlanta, GA 30374-0241
TransUnion: 800-680-7289; www.transunion.com; Fraud Victim Assistance Division, P.O. Box 6790, Fullerton, CA 92834-6790

You may wish to visit the web site of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission at www.consumer.gov/idtheft or reach the FTC at 1-877-382-4357 or 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20580 for further information about how to protect yourself from identity theft. Your state Attorney General may also have advice on preventing identity theft, and you should report instances of known or suspected identity theft to law enforcement, your State Attorney General, and the FTC. For North Carolina residents, the Attorney General can be contacted at 9001 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-9001; telephone (877) 566-7226; or www.ncdoj.gov. For Maryland residents, the Attorney General can be contacted at 200 St. Paul Place, 16th Floor, Baltimore, MD 21202; telephone: (888) 743-0023; or www.oag.state.md.us.

We are committed to helping our customers protect their personal data and we will provide a complimentary offering to assist users in enrolling in identity theft protection services and/or similar programs. The implementation will be at a local level and further details will be made available shortly in regions in which such programs are commonly utilized.

We thank you for your patience as we complete our investigation of this incident, and we regret any inconvenience. Our teams are working around the clock on this, and services will be restored as soon as possible. Sony takes information protection very seriously and will continue to work to ensure that additional measures are taken to protect personally identifiable information. Providing quality and secure entertainment services to our customers is our utmost priority. Please contact us at 1 (866) 436-6698 should you have any additional questions.

Sincerely,
Sony Online Entertainment LLC

    not that i don’t have any faith in SONY but…………………………………………SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is not good, i hope and pray that everyone comes out alright in this, and that the guys who are responsible get caught eventually!!!!!!!

  2. FiftyQuid says:

    An out of date server database from 2007? WTF? 2007?! Are you shitting me? What does that even mean? Was this just an bunch of servers in a room collecting dust, still sucking power, but that hadn’t been upgraded software wise in 4 years?

    I wasn’t even worried about my credit card, but now? I’ll be calling MasterCard tomorrow. This is a total fuck-up in my eyes. 2007… You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.

    • you do know that soe is the pc side of sony right? and this has nothing to do with ps3, i wouldn’t go out and have millions of people cancel there cards if there was a 1 to 10% chance there number was taken. i’d keep an eye out on your account , thats if you have an account with an soe game that uses your cc#. if you don’t play any online games using your cc# on your pc with soe , then not sure why you would be worried.

  3. Jacky says:

    i have a feeling that psn won’t be up this week after this

    • KwietStorm says:

      How’d you make that connection?

      • Jacky says:

        like i said kwietstorm it’s just a feeling, but i only think that mainly because of security, i mean you never know, they may want to keep it down for a couple more days just so they can find out the extent of damage. but i could be wrong.

      • why would this effect psn? its soe , not psn , psn is ps3 , and soe are pc games , they aren’t the same thing. so i doubt this would effect psn coming back up.

  4. Jacky says:

    FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING HACKERS THAT DID THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • WestSiide says:

      we get it, youre unhappy. if you have nothing new to add, chill out. quit trying to turn psls into a spam/flame/troll site.

      OT, im debating back and forth whether to cancel and request a new card. i didnt enter my info into psn until 4/20. 1 whole day after sony had discovered the security breach.

      • How is Jacky trolling again? Because for the last few days you spamed about the patriot act, flamed at Sony about giving you free stuff, and have been trolling various people including JohnnyTraunt5, Jacky, Jawknee1, and nuclearwarfare. I would also include Shadow-Runner but everyone has been trolling himself, myself including because he is a fucking hyprocritc just like you

      • WestSiide says:

        hey look its defjamalamadingdong speaking up for his little jerkoff buddy jacky! aaaw isnt that sweet! look at you being psls buddies and all <3 it must be exhausting stalking me on this website to thumb down my comments, but i would expect that from a couple or retards like you. go ahead and celebrate each others utter supidity, the 2 of you are meant for each other 3

        talk about hypocrite..lol bitch please. look at jackoff and defjamalamadingdong trolling shadow, jumping on the bandwaggon, never having anything interesting or intelligent to add to any topic. its ok, i dont blame you, its clear and evident how deeply in love the two of you are.. cant say i wouldnt do the same thing.

        psls buddies..? LMAO!!

      • THAT IS IT I AM SO FUCKING THROUGH HAVING TO POINT OUT YOUR HYPOCRISY WESTSIIDE! READ YOUR OWN POSTS YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!! You have time and time again been harassing people who opinions differ from you thus you kid are a FUCKING TROLL! You start fights when it not necessary, constantly contradicting yourself, and as you said it yourself being off topic! You know what Westsiidickyourfuckingass shut the fuck up and stop starting shit with people! And as I said in my post about Shadow-Runner I as least admit to that guy but at least Shadow-Runner is entertaining to read your sorry friendless ass!

      • I forgot to mention Jacky and myself friends in real-life too. Where are yours Westsiidick?

      • WestSiide says:

        jacky, i dont speak or read your uncivilized dialect. we use english here. maybe you should go use that cool new book you just discovered. its called the dictionary, remember?

        @defjamalamadingdong

        whooa, whooa there.. calm your simple little mind down. simmer down little guy, its gonna be alright.

        ill tell you what.. lets make a deal. since apparantly you follow me around enough for you to be considered my “groupie”, heres the deal.

        look for any, and i mean ANY thread where i purposely and unwarranted “trolled”, “flamed”, harrassed or contradicted myself, in a way in which you are claiming.

        do that, find concrete proof of your allegations, and ill stop posting here, PERIOD.

        if you cannot, youll do the same, fair enough?

        “I forgot to mention Jacky and myself friends in real-life too.”

        hey, hey, whatever kind of relationship you have, no need to explain. good for you that youre boyfr… i mean “friends” *wink wink* ;)

      • Jacky says:

        obviously you aren’t very bright otherwise you’d know what language that is, try going to college getting a degree and take some foreign language classes so your little mind can understand what’s being said. otherwise, you will be fucked in the future.

        para volver al infierno y seguir adelante con su vida poco patético, he terminado con usted, hombrecito.

      • You don’t like to start fights:
        “lol does the truth scare you mrs. “thumbs down” lady? im assuming youre a female, since you obviously dont have the balls to atleast respond as to why you disagree with me.” you were taunting anybody who would reply to this.
        “jesus crist, someone loves to spam the posts with complete and utter nonsense. wont mention any names, but heres a clue. rhymes with cracky.. anyway..” TROLLING
        “a douchebag once told me, if you cant take a persons opinion, then dont post, its as simple as that.” from you Westsiide you don’t like another person’s opinion

      • WestSiide says:

        really? youre concerned about my fluidity from such a savage dialect? dont worry about it jerkoff. im in America. my english is good enough to express, manifest and reveal how incredibly inept, incomptetent and incredibly useless you and your little boyf.. i mean friend are around here, and in society in general.

        dont worry about me, worry about yourself. judging by the idiocy and nothingness you bring around here, you really should focus more on yourself.

        stalking me to thumb me down… lmao, are you serious?

      • Jacky says:

        spanish and japanese savage dialects? not very polite.

        japanese is a buisness language and knowing it can get you far.

        and the fact that you can’t understand spanish………..is just playing old sad. i guess you’re going to be unemployed your entire life, that is if you even graduate from highschool.

        sayonara!

      • “do that, find concrete proof of your allegations, and ill stop posting here, PERIOD” you dared, I answered, you fail, good-bye! It is amazing how arrogant you are, you do really see yourself as an intelligent human being or what.
        You pitiful comeback rants while somewhat entertaining just proves that you don’t like to be proven wrong. So far you yet to add anything meaning full to the blog since your first words on here were attacking someone else which going your definition/rules for posting have to be ON TOPIC. So remember what you write in the future.
        I am pretty sure you have another long bullshit rant about how superior you are to the person you decided to attack on Playstation Lifestyle, how you don’t care or the use thumbs system (which you do use you fucking hypocritic), and no matter how many times you are proven wrong you do see you self as wrong or just picking certain parts of my reply and pick them apart because you are a waste of my time as of now. So if you do reply to this comment don’t expect a reply.

      • yes I am aware of the grammar errors “and no matter how many times you are proven wrong you don’t see you self as wrong or you are just go to pick certain parts of my reply and pick them apart. you are a waste of my time as of now. So if you do reply to this comment don’t expect a reply.

      • WestSiide says:

        @defjamalamailovelacky

        are you really going to continue showing youre stupidity and lack of reading comrehension around here? uugh.. why do i even bother with simpletons like the two of you. PAY ATTENTION. THIS IS WHAT I SAID…

        “look for any, and i mean ANY thread where i purposely and unwarranted “trolled”, “flamed”, harrassed or contradicted myself, in a way in which you are claiming.”

        Keyword: UNWARRANTED, as in HAVING NO JUSTIFICATION.

        ““lol does the truth scare you mrs. “thumbs down” lady? im assuming youre a female, since you obviously dont have the balls to atleast respond as to why you disagree with me.” you were taunting anybody who would reply to this.”

        I was speaking up to the COWARD that wants to anonymously thumb down without a proper JUSTIFICATION. thumbing down is a form of trolling, just like you. get it. no? i dont expect you to.

        ““jesus crist, someone loves to spam the posts with complete and utter nonsense. wont mention any names, but heres a clue. rhymes with cracky.. anyway..” TROLLING”

        Bringing up a fact about what someone is doing, which is spamming the thread with complete nonesense is trolling? well if you think so, good for you, but i also said…

        “look for any, and i mean ANY thread where i purposely and unwarranted “trolled”

        Again, keyword UNWARRANTED. its a bit hypocritical to call me a troll when youre boyfriend jackoff decided to troll me FIRST.

        ““a douchebag once told me, if you cant take a persons opinion, then dont post, its as simple as that.” from you Westsiide you don’t like another person’s opinion”

        There was a reply specifically from jackoff giving me advice by telling ME THAT. look its right here…

        Jacky says:
        04/30/2011 at 4:07 PM

        ” you don’t run the website, you don’t run the commentaries, you don’t run shit! if you can’t take a persons opinion, then don’t post it’s as simple as that.”

        im simply reiterating what jackoff said to me. i dont find anything wrong with that..

        i know how badly you want to get rid of me, its not gonna happen.. keep digging, ill even give you one more try.

      • WestSiide says:

        @defjamalamailovelacky

        you wont reply to me because you have nothing more to say. You seem to know everywhere ive been and know everything ive said. should i be worried, you creepy little stalker?

        you and jackoff are butthurt because you cant handle the truth. you are a pair of simpletons attached by the scrotum, that seem to share half a brain. youre not on the same wavelength as me, and it seems to bother you to the point that youre willing to look at my comment history, look for a discrepancy to try to get rid of me.

        im confident that you wont find such things, do you think i would have put you up to it otherwise? you can claim that i am whatever you say i am. whatever helps you feel better about yourself.

        youre so easy to bait its hilarious. youre looking for to start shit, im simply participating.

      • Jacky says:

        “thumbing down is a form of trolling,”

        if thumbing down is a form of ‘trolling’ as you put it, then you yourself must troll ALOT of people.

        i thumb down when i disagree with someones opinion, yet i highly doubt its the same or you. i’m done with you, you can post all you want and thumb down all you want but i will never leave, whether you like it or not. just like i know YOU will never leave no matter what anybody says to you. and despite what you think (with your little god complex) you are not superior to anyone or anything, and never will be.

        adios,

        shitsiide

      • giese095 says:

        You all need to chill out and quit taking all this stuff so personally. Quit throwing the F bomb and try to expand your vocabulary a little bit

      • This will be the final time I will respond you since you just don’t get it. You prove ME right because you didn’t read what I had to say. From this point the more you reply the more you prove me right about you because you think are superior, you think are more clever by setting up fights, you think you won an argument. I am sorry WestSiide you lose. Keep on ranting…… I hope you feel better about yourself. btw he is an example of an unwarranted attack

        you started talking shit now I am finishing it for good. Later!

      • @giese095: You make a good point. seriously that Westsiide just bring out the worst in me.

      • WestSiide says:

        “if thumbing down is a form of ‘trolling’ as you put it, then you yourself must troll ALOT of people.”

        what proof do you have that i do? yeeaa exactly, being retarded must be a disease because its obviously spreading.

        its quite pathetic that ever since you got your feelings hurt by me, all of a sudden every comment i make usually has an immediate pair of down votes.. hmm.. your not fooling anyone jackoff and defjamalamailovejackoff.

        the both of you failed abortions are threatened by me, you dont have to admit to it, it shows. You try to censor me, guess what? enough people are more interested in what i have to say, so no matter how many times you manage to down vote me, people are going to click on my comments either way. you 2 muppets are prime examples of how you flock to my comments like flies on shit.

        @defjamalamailovejackysnuts

        i made a deal with you, and you failed. i click the article and as soon as i hit the comments all i see is jackoffs annoying ass acting like a 12 year old.

        “SHIT,SHIT,SHIT,FUCK,FUCK,FUCK YOU HACKORS!!” Your juvenile behavior is ridiculous, yea call me childish, again as i said, LOOK AT YOUR OWN COMMENTS.

        for someone who likes to advocate “education”, you sure act like a stupid , prepubescent moron.

        i said “we get it, youre unhappy. if you have nothing new to add, chill out. quit trying to turn psls into a spam/flame/troll site.”

        i dont see any form of “trolling” or disrespect, i simply gave a suggestion.

        defjamalamaiblowjacky, im sure youre not going to live up to the deal. as far as im concerned you lost, what are you still doing here? i havent seen your evidence. you lose, bye bitch!

      • WOAH!
        Acting like an asshole for no reason is my territory bitch, if you wanna throw down we can throw down, if not sit the fuck down.

      • WestSiide says:

        @JohnnyTruant5

        lol.. excusez-moi..? look jackoff i can speak french!! arent i clever?

      • Whats the matter, did Pierre get some in your eyes after the oral exam? You picked up a french male hooker, I’m not sure we have the same idea of what clever is.

      • WestSiide says:

        let me clarify before you get youre panties in a twist, since one of us is being vague as to who theyre replying to.

        @JohnnyTruant5

        lol.. excusez-moi..?

        @jackoff aka cracky-jacky

        look jackoff i can speak french!! arent i clever?

        anything more youd like to add?

      • Ok, so Whats the matter did Shadow-Runner get some in your eyes? You wanted to act be king shit, so lets see it.
        What, was it only a one time thing? We had our thing, then you moved onto Shadow-Runner for a while, but hey who didn’t I don’t blame you. But now you’re going for two at a time? Only a Menage a trois is good enough for you?
        You know what fine, you take your dirty whore hands and you type whatever you want at whoever you want if thats how you get your jollies.

      • WestSiide says:

        “Acting like an asshole for no reason is my territory bitch, if you wanna throw down we can throw down, if not sit the fuck down.”

        lmao.. ook i thought this was a joke, i really did. is little johnny boy feeling left out again? i mean, the last time you got butthurt when shadow didnt seem to pay you any attention. boo hoo =.(

        i mean seriously, is that what passes for a for a “tuff guy” over in igloo town? i bet you must feel like you have big brass balls over in maple town, eh..?

        i didnt know i had so many followers around psls. but with you dear ol’ johnny boy, with you, i dont know.. i think its more of an infatuation you have with me . i mean seriously, the last time you fantasized about me in this imaginary “makeout” session, now apparantly youre putting me in a “menage a trois”..? time to get those tendencies evaluated, eh?

        “You picked up a french male hooker, I’m not sure we have the same idea of what clever is.”

        considering where your from (canada? HA!) im sure you have more access to your male french hookers. typical saturday night it must be for you, eh?

        thanks for youre response though, i mean you just proved alot of i already said..

        WestSiide says: “the both of you failed abortions are threatened by me, you dont have to admit to it, it shows. You try to censor me, guess what? enough people are more interested in what i have to say, so no matter how many times you manage to down vote me, people are going to click on my comments either way. you 2 muppets are prime examples of how you flock to my comments like flies on shit.’

        *EDIT* Make that 3 failed abortions and 3 muppets*

        little johhny, the little canadian “gangsta”… watch out for the monties, eh.. lmao

      • HAHA yeah thats what I was looking for. I was joking dude, I don’t give a shit who’s tough around here but you sure showed me. Couldn’t pass up the opportunity EH?
        Igloo? The 90′s called and it wants it’s steretypes back. I bet you think we actually still use the term eskimo too?
        So hilarious of you to go along with gay innuendo when it it’s shadow but get all defensive and serious when it’s me? Chill your tits baby, you don’t need to quote things out of context to make me look gay. Pretty sure people stopped taking that as an insult seriously back in elementary school anyway but apparently not.
        Typical American doesn’t understand the difference between Quebec and Canada. Do you have cowboys in Florida? Mexicans in Rhode Island?
        I’m not threatened by you, I think it’s hilarious how hypocritical you are. I mean It’s like you don’t even realize that you’re calling me out for “acting tough” while you’re waving your dick around like it actually intimidate anything.
        Westsiiiiide says: ” I have any ego so huge I have to let everybody know about it. There’s absolutely no way to prove who thumbed down who but I’m king shit and KNOW it was you guys. I also know who clicks to read my hidden posts AND when! Even though I TOTALLY initiated the comments towards you here, you guys definitely can’t stay away from me.”
        That’s seriously what your quote looks like man, you’re such a huge joke it’s just getting pathetic AT LEAST admit you’re doing it too.

      • WestSiide says:

        really? well the 90′s called and said it wants people to stop saying “the 90′s called”. Your attempt at criticizing my “originality” obviously backfired. Who the fuck still says “the 90′s called”…? i know we dont. wooow! must be a canuck thing.

        “So hilarious of you to go along with gay innuendo when it it’s shadow but get all defensive and serious when it’s me? Pretty sure people stopped taking that as an insult seriously back in elementary school anyway but apparently not.”

        think real hard about this you little butt hugger. yea, i brought up “male french hookers” “oral exams” and “getting some in the eye”. your attempt at making me look like a hypocrite is as ridiculous and pathetic as you are. seriously you little back-door bandit, try harder.

        “I’m not threatened by you, I think it’s hilarious how hypocritical you are. I mean It’s like you don’t even realize that you’re calling me out for “acting tough” while you’re waving your dick around like it actually intimidate anything.”

        ok maybe im wrong, maybe youre not threatened but you definitely have an infatuation with me that you cannot deny. “makout sessions”, “menage”, “french male hookers”, you even went as far as to bring SHADOW into this.

        if thats not infatuation, i dont know what else it could be. get a professional self evaluation.

        Infatuation: a foolish and usually extravagant passion or love or admiration.

        Fits you perfectly, eh? i mean look at you responding to me now for no reason.

        “I’m king shit and KNOW it was you guys. I also know who clicks to read my hidden posts AND when! Even though I TOTALLY initiated the comments towards you here, you guys definitely can’t stay away from me.”

        first of all, whats “king shit” and what exactly make me “king shit”. you must think i am since youre saying it. the way those two dipshits cant stay away from each other and are constantly holding each other by the dick is too obvious as to whose doing the down voting. but as i said i dont care, you and they are proof that my comments will continue to be read. it doesnt make a difference, i just find it unusual that some will go through such lenghts to do it. i thought females were usually catty and petty, but never underestimate the power of bitch ass fools like them.

        to end this all im gonna say is this. you really should be the last one to even utter the word hypocrite. ive seen several posts from you attacking and being a smart ass to those you disagree with. some even unwarranted.

        not that i need to justify my actions, but if you read from the beginning, which im sure you did, you can see that my post wasnt rude or disrespectful. telling someone to “chill out” from constanly using the word shit and fuck, is not an attack. you douchbags should work on your emotions and not take everything up the butt, unless youre clearly being attacked, because if i was, i think youd know it.

        your beef with me, i dont know. if you think about it, i never even acknowledge you. get that self evaluation done, im sure you agression might ease once youre able to fulfill your secret tendencies.
        your beef with me, i dont know. if you think about it, i never even acknowledge you.

      • Wow really? I know that term is old, it’s called irony retard. Stop taking this so seriously.

        You still don’t understand? That stuff was me provoking you into going off on me. If that’s all it takes what does that say about you? Yeah i’m the one thats obsessed here but I can make you get all excited with a paragraph or two?

        Haha maybe? Newsflash, NOBODY intimidates ANYBODY over the internet. You live in a fantasy world if that’s how you think people see you. Way to conveniently miss the last half of that paragrapgh though. Just look down, you don’t realize it but you’ve been waving your dick around this whole time.

        I’m responding now because I think it’s HILARIOUS! Didn’t see humour in that definition anywhere, good try though.

        Forgive me for using king shit, I wasn’t really thinking about it and now that I do i’m pretty sure it’s a fairly local term. It basically means you think you’re awesome and your shit doesn’t stink, so you get called king shit. It’s not me that thinks you’re king shit, the way you act makes it impossible to describe you any other way. You’re so narcissistic it’s incredible, you don’t even realize how little people care about you on the internet.

        Yeah, me and those two guys are proof that only 3 people actually give a shit what you say on this website, and that’s only because I think you’re unintentionally hilarious, and these 2 guys because you thought it would be funny or cool or something to call them out and then act like they’re obsessed with you.
        Have you ever seen the south park episode where it shows Mr Slave as a kid, and he gets all the football players to “tackle the gay kid”(Gay isn’t the point here)? This is pretty similar to that. You called out these guys with something fairly innocent so you could crank it up and really get your fix without blame falling entirely on you.

        Do you even know what a hypocrite is? I’ve admitted i’m an asshole and that even when i’m not i’m hardly polite. Its YOU that hasn’t admitted a damn thing yet. Admit you’re just as much of a trolling fag as I am and I’ll leave you alone for good.
        You don’t need to justify your actions. HAHAHAHA THAT”S THE FUNNIEST THING YET!!
        What the hell is all of this if you don’t feel the need to justify your actions? Oh my god you are in denial like I’ve never seen before. It’s just your opinion that your posts weren’t rude or disrespectful, and we’ve learned your head is so far up your own ass that your opinion really can’t be trusted.
        What is this aggression you’re talking about? The only aggression I’m getting is from you, taking every chance you get to call me gay or defend yourself from any wrongdoing. I’m sitting here with a grin on my face laughing every so often at you.

        If the system got hacked on the 19th and you entered the information on the 20th then why would the hackers have your credit card information? They accessed the system a day before you coughed up your credit card number.

      • Silenus says:

        A.) A troll may not, at any time, determine what is and is not trolling. It takes a community to decide if an action is worthy of the ‘trolling’ moniker. Not a singular person. For example, a troll may denote a down ranking of a post as trolling because it was their post down ranked. However if the community does not agree then it is not actual trolling.

        B.) I AM TROLL RAGE! I AM VERBAL DEFECATION UPON MYSELF!! HEAR ME RAGE!!! HEAR ME BE TROLL!!!

      • WestSiide says:

        ooh look its Butt-hugger5 and the hater crew back in full force!

        “Yeah i’m the one thats obsessed here but I can make you get all excited with a paragraph or two?”

        more hypocrisy? how do you live with your self? apparantly me saying ” excusez-moi” was enough to get you into your homo-erotic tirade. being so damn stupid must be incredibly painful and frustrating for you.

        you keep suggesting and insinuating “what” you want me to be, its very obvious why.

        you analyze and twist everything i say for the sake of your own self gratification. for the sake of reassuring your own insecurities. because you think im trying to be “king shit” when its obvious that thats exactly who youre trying to portray. you believe im trying to take away this imaginary “character” that you made up around here, and yes, by that you feel threatened and insecure. you talk about me “swinging my dick”, look at your pathetic comments..

        ButtHugger5 said: ” I mean It’s like you don’t even realize that you’re calling me out for “acting tough” while you’re waving your dick around like it actually intimidate anything.”

        ButtHugger5 said: “Acting like an asshole for no reason is my territory bitch, if you wanna throw down we can throw down, if not sit the fuck down.”

        ButtHugger5 said: “Ok, so Whats the matter did Shadow-Runner get some in your eyes? You wanted to act be king shit, so lets see it.”

        lmao.. what?

        HA! holy shit! watching too much WWE, eh? whats next, are you gonna turn into the hulk, or is this you being “intimidating”? im soo utterly terrorized now! interesting you bring up that word and accusing me of trying to be it, when i have never, EVER even used it. lay off the maple syrup butt-hugger, it seems to be clouding your reality.

        “its hilarious”, its hilarious” “everything is hilarious”!! you use the word so often, it seems as nothing more than a reflex that you use so frequently, it loses all its meaning. you have no other form of expression except to find everything “hilarious”. if i had to describe you, id lean more towards pathetic and sad. youre merely guilty for being the same kind of simpleton as the other two. dont worry, i wont hold that against you.

        ButtHugger5 said: “Yeah, me and those two guys are proof that only 3 people actually give a shit what you say on this website.”

        another admission of you doing exactly what i already said. it doesnt matter WHY you follow me around. you just admitted that you do. your infatuation with me is so obvious, its literally dripping from your wet pussy. do my comments get you all wet, maple cheeks..? ;)

        ButtHugger5 said: “Admit you’re just as much of a trolling fag as I am and I’ll leave you alone for good.”

        as much of a trolling “FAG” as you are..? lmao..! Why do you get so anal-hurt, complain, whine, cry and throw tantrums over homo innuendo, when you just admitted to being a FAG. goddamn hypocrites, i swear. why cry? i always knew you were a butt-loving, queenie canuck. at least now you admit to it, and no longer have to suppress your sexual tendencies. dont you feel relieved :)

        keep talking. with every reply we get to know the real little johnny-boy, for the hypocrite, trolling, butt-loving little queen that you really are. youre so incredibly obtuse and brainless that it almost feels inhumane to even continue responding to you, you little ass-bandit.

        go obsess over me some more from this love note (which im sure youll interpret as). read it 1,000 times, obsess over it, analyze it, misinterpret it (which im sure you will) , twist it and rip it apart (my comment, not some random dudes anus), and if you cant reply in a comprehensive form, dont bother. im not going to further attempt to decipher your gibberish.

        this shit is so pointless, but im sure you cant resist to continually show me this “tuff guy” complex of yours.

      • “more hypocrisy? how do you live with your self? apparantly me saying ” excusez-moi” was enough to get you into your homo-erotic tirade. being so damn stupid must be incredibly painful and frustrating for you.”
        Like I’ve already explained to you, that was me egging you into talking shit because I KNEW you couldn’t help yourself. Admit it, you just love talking shit over the internet, why else wouldn’t you have just shrugged it off?
        “you analyze and twist everything i say for the sake of your own self gratification.”
        AND YOU FOLLOW THIS BY ACTING LIKE STUFF I’VE SAID WAS JOKING WAS TOTALLY SERIOUS. So who’s twisting who’s words?
        You never EVER said intimated?
        “the both of you failed abortions are threatened by me, you dont have to admit to it, it shows. ”
        Oh shit I used it as synonym for threatened, TOTALLY TWISTING YOUR MESSAGE MY BAD. I mean were you totally serious with that?
        ““its hilarious”, its hilarious” “everything is hilarious”!! you use the word so often, it seems as nothing more than a reflex that you use so frequently, it loses all its meaning. you have no other form of expression except to find everything “hilarious”. if i had to describe you, id lean more towards pathetic and sad. youre merely guilty for being the same kind of simpleton as the other two. dont worry, i wont hold that against you.”
        HAHAHAHAHAHA U MAD? U BUTTHURT? This shit IS hilarious. Judging how I react to everything, based on how I’m reacting to you thinking you’re insulting me, is ridiculous. I’ll laugh at somebody that’s talking out of their ass and won’t admit it when proof is right in front of them.
        “another admission of you doing exactly what i already said. it doesnt matter WHY you follow me around. you just admitted that you do. your infatuation with me is so obvious, its literally dripping from your wet pussy. do my comments get you all wet, maple cheeks..?”
        Ok, so I bit the bullet to call you out on thinking anybody else actually reads your crap. I should have realized I fell into another of your fantasies, but they’re everywhere at this point so who cares?

        “as much of a trolling “FAG” as you are..? lmao..! Why do you get so anal-hurt, complain, whine, cry and throw tantrums over homo innuendo, when you just admitted to being a FAG. goddamn hypocrites, i swear. why cry? i always knew you were a butt-loving, queenie canuck. at least now you admit to it, and no longer have to suppress your sexual tendencies. dont you feel relieved”
        You taking one of the meanings of fag as an opportunity to fantasize about if I was gay again, big surprise there. You always knew? Deep down in your heart? HAHAHA.
        “for the hypocrite,”
        Sorry, but you’ve never addressed what you think this word means. Being a hypocrite is when you say one thing, and do the other. I’m calling you out for being a huge douchebag, while admitting I’m one most of the time. There’s only one of us filling our comments with insults and gay slurs here,time to calm down and just admit the truth. I can’t say it will make you feel better than demeaning other people for your pleasure, you seem to get rock hard from that, but it is a great releif.

        “this shit is so pointless, but im sure you cant resist to continually show me this “tuff guy” complex of yours.”
        If it REALLY was pointless to you, then why even respond past “excusez-moi?”? I also think it’s hilarious how you refuse to aknowledge that you’ve acted a HELL of a lot tougher than I have after admitting I was just screwing with you. THEY SAY U MAD! U MAD! I KNOW IT! OOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW
        RIP MJ.

      • WestSiide says:

        congratulations. whats your point? you got what you were looking for, so what? you make it seem as if its such a huge inconvenience for me to reveal the truths about you. this shit comes effortlessly for me because its so easy to see right through you. you could have also stopped after your first little rant, but you didnt. you already admitted, in your own words, to being a “trolling fag”. were you being a hypocrite? OoOhh, big surprise there!

        *in your queeny voice*
        LOOK AT ME! IM GONNA TYPE IN ALL CAPS SO I CAN PRETEND OR MAKE MYSELF BELIEVE THAT THE MEAN THINGS WESTSIIDE SAID ABOUT ME ARENT MAKING MY ASSHOLE SINGE DOWN TO ITS VERY CORE!

        IM GONNA CALL MYSELF A “TROLLING FAG” BUT IN CASE I GET CALLED OUT ON IT, IM JUST GONNA SAY HE’S TAKING IT OUT OF CONTEXT, AND I ACTUALLY MEANT IT BY SOME VAGUE MEANING THAT THE WORD CAN ALSO HAVE, EVEN THOUGH ITS USUALLY USED TO DESCRIBE QUEENS LIKE MYSELF THAT ENJOYS ENGAGING IN BUTT-LOVING SEXUAL INTERCOURSE WITH OTHER GUYS!! IM ALSO GONNA HAVE A PATHETIC EXCUSE AND SAY THAT HE JUST WANTS TO FANTASIZE ABOUT IT! YEEEA, THATLL SHOW HIM!

        the only thing truly hilarious is how you seem twist and change even your own words around to comply with whatever it is you want to say. a tuff guy canuck lol. just when you think youve heard it all.

        anything more youd like to add?

      • You are almost taking trolling to another level today, but it’s held back by your obsession with gay jokes. I mean do you honestly think I care enough for have you to spent that much time on them? I legitimately don’t understand what you gain from it besides a hard on just from typing it all out.
        Oh really was I being a hypocrite? You’ve failed YET AGAIN to explain what you think that word means, or any good reason why it applies to me. Yet you think calling me one has any effect? HILARIOUS :)

        “LOOK AT ME! IM GONNA TYPE IN ALL CAPS SO I CAN PRETEND OR MAKE MYSELF BELIEVE THAT THE MEAN THINGS WESTSIIDE SAID ABOUT ME ARENT MAKING MY ASSHOLE SINGE DOWN TO ITS VERY CORE!”
        Haha ok, take my proof that you’re just talking shit and turn it into an assumption that your words do anything other than make me laugh or confuse me, that doesn’t make you look like a troll at all.

        Oh, I see what you’re doing here. I typed one sentence and so you are typing a lot of stuff in caps as a form of mockery. How on earth do you come up with something so clever?
        “the only thing truly hilarious is how you seem twist and change even your own words around to comply with whatever it is you want to say.”
        HAHAHAHAHAHA. Ok buddy, do you have any better proof than your own claim that I meant something different originally? I can’t say I didn’t use the term fag to incite some more of your sweet sweet hilarious homophobic rage, but to think you have any idea what I meant by it either way is TOO funny. What are you psychic now? No wait, you’re god and you’re judging me for “sinning”?? Thats it isn’t it, god is some loser that likes to take out his homophobic rage on random people on the internet while staying in complete denial about his actions!
        Have I gotten as ridiculous as you yet??

        haHaha! yeeea, you can say how much you dont care all you want, but your complaining and weak defense is actually saying otherwise. your entire reply wreaks of complete utter desperation. c’mon colon-cowboy, you decide to troll me, i respond just like you wanted, and all i hear are the cries of a little bitch defending himself by complaining about what im saying to you?

        maybe you should publish a manual titled “ButtHugger5′s Guide to Being a Trolling Fag”. maybe you already have. i wasnt aware that there were actual rules involved. you should know, i mean, you did describe yourself as being a trolling fag. cries, cries, and more cries is all i hear.

        WaAhH!! WestSiide keeps calling me ButtHugger5 and i dont like it! i decided to troll him first by telling him he picks up male french hookers, and that this guy im totally in love with named Shadow-Runner shot a load in his eye, but now he keeps insisting that im a hypocrite because im complaining for him doing the same thing to me, by saying that i like to have anal sex with other guys!! I know i shouldnt be mad since its totally true, but its still hurtful, and now what hes saying about me whining and crying and throwing tantrums is true, even though i accidentally revealed myself as a trolling fag… im gonna complain about him totally not being clever, yeea, maybe thatll discourage him! i really have nothing more to say, but im gonna continue replying cuz if i dont, maybe others will realise im really not the “tuff guy” ive tried so hard to make myself appear to be… waaahh waahh!!

        c’mon butt-sniffer, keep up! im getting bored over here.

      • WestSiide says:

        haha! well that was downed in record time.. wow 10 minutes. i see you have your little minions working for you eh ButtHugger5..? but nooo.. no one is following me, hanging by my every word..

      • wow man, i dunno who you are but you sure like to rant and rave. give it a rest, from what i’ve read you seem like the world’s biggest dick which is ironic because you probably don’t have one in the first place. for a dick you are such a pussy!! putting up fronts, pretending you don’t care when it’s painfully obvious you do. give it up man, you suck at calling people names, and you suck at fighting back. all you do is copy and paste, copy and paste.oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh where’s the skill in that?

        i’ll tell ya where that skill is right now, there isn’t any!!! johnny has owned you left and right, give it up. with each word you type you prove yourself wrong, and prove johnny right. dude give it up before you make an even bigger idiot of yourself. move on. get a life. go do something that you’re actually good at, aside from bitching. you bitch more then a woman pms’ing. maybe thats it! you’re a girl thats goin thru pms!

        anywho whatever the case you’ve lost and you’re in denial, just give it up already before somebody else owns you AGAIN!!!

        chances are you’re gonna reply to this and if you do……….then you are a sad sad little man with nuffin better to do but bitch and complain.

  5. this is got to be one of the shitist times for Sony. WTF is going on?!!!!! If this doesnt make them upgrade all their shit, i don’t know what will.

  12. I hate to say this but does anything think that all the hacking is done by ‘professional hackers’ at this point

      • dmdragon says:

        There isn’t really such a thing as a “Professional Hacker”. Technically the people who do computer security or testing for security firms are professional hackers, but not really the same thing. These hackers do it for props and to cause anarchy. They were very smart people to be sure, but that just makes it all the more sad that they choose to destroy society instead of using their intellect to help people. The people doing this are selfish and I hope that they are caught by the DOHS and spend their lives in prison when they could have so easily been living the good life, rich and helping others.

    • KwietStorm says:

      What exactly do you mean by professional hacker?

  13. dhughes60 says:

    This sucks, I was hoping that no one’s Credit/Debit Card accounts were stolen from the PSN but unfortunately they were. I hope that those people who had their Credit/Debit Card accounts stolen take the appropriate security precautions to protect their Credit/Debit Card accounts. As for Sony, I hope this teaches them and everyother company out there a lesson that you should take security very seriously and you should update your security measures on a regular basis.

    • if your getting that info from reading this story , you misread it , it has nothing to do with psn , but sony online entertaiment which runs the online servers for pc games. not ps3 games. like i said this story is misleading people into thinking this has anything to do with psn and what happend on it. this is a totaly differnt story.

  14. I have been out in the sun for 2 weeks and now ive come to realize that i really miss psn. Hopefully people are right about this not affecting when psn is coming back online. And the sad thing is that i find no online enjoyment playing online with my 360.

    • Silenus says:

      Yes. Go Outside and Live Your Life, or GO:LYL for you trendy people, is starting to get really boring after two weeks. Someone really should have thought the grinding aspect through. And the difficulty! It’s far harder then I was expecting.

  15. Ves says:

    This is going from bad to worse and I’m tired of it.

  16. i don care when it comes back up as long as it comes back i’m happy

  17. Seriously Al, stop spamming your lost cause. Hackers STOLE OUR INFO, I know most of you guys aren’t all bad but one or more of them FUCKED the people who use PSN so right now don’t bother post this kinda of crap.
