Mesoradio hacked: Inside job
Author Gillian   
Saturday, 09 August 2008

Somewhere in late December, 2007, a new Maplestory radio station popped up on the net: MesoRadio.


The radio station did a good job, and seemed to be successful since the launch even though there were competitions, where one of them was MusicStoryRadio. One day shortly after launch, MesoRado was "Hacked".
If you went to visit the MesoRadio website, you would see an inappropriate image, text saying something along the lines that the site would have been hacked by a DJ from Musicstoryradio.

This was obviously an inside job where MusicStoryRadio had nothing to do with it. MesoRadio's structure was made up by HTML files, and a couple of PHP files. There was no database, there where no passwords or log-in fields what-so-ever on that website. The only way to update content on that website, is to upload files via FTP (file transfer protocol). And even if that was stolen, The damage caused would be very minimum and limited to one file. which can later be replaced by the original one.
Savage, owner of a Maplestory news website, stuck his nose into this and spread rumors all around and backed them up with screenshots, that would've been edited. There where no hard evidence that MesoRadio was actually hacked, only fake screenshots. There are personal issues with Dan and Savage. Savage wanted an affiliation with MSR, but Dan denied after I denied to merge with MSR and Savage's News website. Dan, should have acted more professional and should have ignored everything along the lines of MesoRadio. This would prevent the chaos among the DJ's that was provoked by all above. At MSR, the DJ's were threatened to get hacked if they were going to play music, so they temporarily leaned back until everything was normal.

A quote from Phantomburn:

I have to say these events have been rather silly in both parties.
It seems rather just a he said / she said battle between both parties, I don’t know what the original beef with Mesoradio, all I know is the owners pretend to sugarcoat a fake smile into a obviously bad relationship.
It would be in the best interest in both parties just to leave each other alone, honestly why fight amongst each other when you can be helping each other, whether it be affiliating, link exchanging or otherwise recommending a site.
I know that everyone wants to be the best, but you know what sometimes you have to settle.
