Wow, the kids on 4chan.org won't stop crying about being exposed. As you already know, the users on 4chan.org have attempted to rig a pathetic online poll just to get "lulz and bitter tears" out of the fanboys who actually give a damn about this sort of thing.

Well once their actions were exposed the 4chan brats flew into a rage. Many of them spent days trying to rig this online poll in their favor. Only to have someone come along and expose their actions. And if everyone knows the poll is fixed, the fanboys wont care who wins and the 4chan kids are robbed of their chance for "lulz and bitter tears." All the time they spent trying to hack this poll has been wasted. And now the 4chan brats are the only people crying bitter tears.

They're so angry about this they've actually threatened to take down n4g.com! In case you don't know, n4g.com is a news referal site similar to digg.com. Only n4g (new 4 gamers) focuses strictly on gaming related news and thinly veiled marketing ploys and virals.

N4g.com merely acted as a conduit for this information, but that doesn't matter to the 4chan brats who are looking for a target for their rage. It seems exposing this deception has made them really angry. And the pages of 4chan.org are filled with bitter tears and rage. I guess this is what you get when you waste your life caring about online polls. More as this story develops.

The scumbags at 4chan.org continue to ruin GameSpot's All Time Greatest Hero Poll. This time they are using anonymous proxy servers to accomplish their goals. This unaltered image is a recent screen capture from the 4chan.org image board. It shows detailed instructions on how to use a proxy server to cast multiple votes. Certain users in this very topic have proudly claimed they have voted over 600 times.

Anyone with a basic knowledge of photoshop can prove this image is 100% legit. Also the technique described in this image works, further proving the poll is easily rigged.

The GameSpot staff knows about this problem and they continue to ignore it. Why? Because the whole contest is nothing more than a hit grab anyway. They just want the traffic spike and they dont care if the contest gets rigged. The more outrage there is the more hits they get. GameSpot is spitting in the face of its own users.
