"San Diego GOP chairman co-founded international piracy ring"

category: general [glöplog]
Yeah it's hardly fair to compare today's Fairlight with that of the past, back then the "scenes" weren't seperated like they are now. I mean it was a different time, it was like, 3 days ago...

Hmm ok my bad it was actually a couple of months ago, but still, saying that the two scenes are in no way related anymore is just a blatant lie.

If someone uses my name for secret purposes how can I prove that I have nothing to do with it?

fairlight is a massive beast. what with the cracking group, the c64 demogroup, the pc demogroup, the record label, the beer company, the c64 game, and that synthesiser we made back in the 80s that helped launch jean michel jarre's career. we've been busy! but it's fair to say that over 20 years of history and with such an enormous number of different projects involving different people, things have spread out.

for the benefit of any clueless types around here, or any journalists who might have got here via their new found ability to use google (congratulations guys!), allow me to re-iterate what everyone with any sense around here already knows: nobody in the fairlight demo division is involved in, or has been involved in, or has any knowledge of, any of the illegal activities of the fairlight cracking division. they are two separate groups of people. the connection is based on tradition (the fairlight demo group as you know it today grew out of connections with the c64 demo division), not some sort of sopranos envy.

the article seems well researched and all, but the author seems pretty selective about what to present and how to present it, so in the end it's just a case of shit throwing.

t's funny e.g. how they mention that some of his co-workers at the consultant company were found guilty. like, "you work for mcdonalds, some mcdonalds employees spit in the sandwitches, so you're probably spitting in the sandwitches" ...brilliant logic, isn't it?

yeah, that was a slap in the face of proper journalism

ö: I don't know if someone was talking about that the two scenes are in no way related today ( I wasn't), but I'll make I wild guess: the majority of the people involved in the demo scene are not involved in the part of cracking scene excluding stuff like drawing logos, ansis, coding cracktros, etc.

heh I walk past "Fairlight Primary School" on my way into town. I have to get a picture of that sign :)
User comment on first article:
"Someone is attacking Miriam Raftery for not clearly saying she is a Democrat while reporting on this story. Doesn't the article state that is was Republicans who she got her information form this story? She said in one of the responses that many Republicans had information but were fearful to comment. Why would anyone be fearful? What are they are afraid Krvaric would do to them? Me think Krvaric could call in the same people he was engaged in all those crimes with his Hacking Mafia to do something to them: That is what I think. Pretty sad, that people are driven by fear just to talk about a criminal's past. It tells me that there really is something to this thing about the Republican Chairman being a thug. But anyway, these were not Democrats that have spoken out to Miriam about Krvaric. These are Republicans who seem to have influence in San Diego and some of them are candidates who are risking alot to come forward against their own party right at election time. That is why I tend to believe them and they are risking so much, gives them much more credibility and gives the story crediblity. Those who are posting comments attacking the messengers of who the real Tony Krvaric is are actually do so in defense of Krvaric rather than accepting the truth about their GOP chairman buddy. Sounds like Krvaric's buddies are trying to kill the messenger rather than doing a reality check about Krvaric and who he really is."

"Me think Krvaric could call in the same people he was engaged in all those crimes with his Hacking Mafia to do something to them" - that made my day!

It's sad that THG is dead. Didn't they according to a legend throw a brick through some kids window to stop him from messing around.

Fairlight seems to be quite hard core, if they start to "hurt" people.

Zefyros, they did. But that kid wasn't messing around, he was a supplier for INC (International Network of Crackers). THG guys asked to some kid they knew who lived in that other kid's town to do that, but asked him to write "THG" on the brick before throwing it.
