eon8...

Post by Durka Durka Mahn »

Someguy on another forum I go to posted about this...............
Really weird site..It's called eon8. I highly suggest you don;t go there, but search it on wikipedia. It's counting down to July 1st...Not sure what for but's it's freaking me out!!! Can someone tell me what's going on with the site???

I suggest you go to this site before entering eon8, if you really want to, it shows a vid on what it is-
The YTMND = http://eon8theinvestigation.ytmnd.com/
It shows what eon8 is...I still suggest not to go to eon8 because I'm afraid I'm screwed now or something! :?
Anyone else know what on earth this is?

PS: Here's a link from wikipedia...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eon8
Read the article...It's...weird as well...Something about Phantom games but...

Help me!

Wow, people clearly aren't familiar with a viral marketing scheme, except the wikipedia post. Ever heard of ilovebees? ourcolony.net? oragami? This is a website generated by a company, perhaps the one mentioned in the wikipedia article, to make a hype about an upcoming product, it clearly works well, or you wouldn't be posting this here.

EDIT: Here you are, enlighten yourselves.

EDIT2: No, I'm serious, this is just a viral marketing scheme, not a global cyberterrorist countdown.

WTF? Look at the very bottom of the eon8 description.

I don't know what to think about it. It's more likely its a fake, is it supposed to spook me that they can display my IP on my screen if I try to go into secret areas? That is so basic, you can access peoples IP on forums, I can track people's IP's on my homepage, so what?

And what's with that list of referers? I don't quite understand what that is. But I don't think there is anything to worry about, but, however, I could be wong.


EDIT: I just read what casket said, makes sence.

Meh! Stop lol. Anyways, there's a blog, forget the link to it though...It shows one of the people who "work" at eon8 and posts this-
Thank you all for posting and I think we are close to finding out the answer as to what the hell Eon8.com is all about. The following was posted by a blogger called CERBERUS and I believe that this person is directly linked to Eon8.com or else is very cocky!! What do you think??

>>You are correct, this is not a terrorist act, nor is it a hoax.<<
>>It is not affiliated with video games or movies.<<
>>Think on what the map signifies<<
>>Think on what the time and date represents from the history of this country.<<
>>Use your head, everything is part of the_[LF P$X419<<

Simple Answer: If it was a terrible site with a terrible cause, it would be gone.

Especially because people are making such a big deal about it, it would definatly have been put under investigation and out of the internet.

I was gonna use a custom referer extension to leave some html and css which would cause their entire security page http://www.eon8.com/security to have a big background with LASER WAS HERE(ok, maybe i would've done something a bit more subtle), but they've started filtering referers. :(

The Wiki said it had viruses on it. All the more reason I won't go to it... I have no reason to anyway.
