HAHA..thanks guys. I'm actually the guy that posted "h4x0r3d Computer Services". It was great fun while it was live. And they're wrong. Half of them werent even edited afterwards...they were posted like that from the beginning. The person in charge of reviewing them must have been a slacker and deserved for this to happen.
