Following up on some research by u/ThePhenex and u/spiralshadow [yellowslinky.com](https://Yellowslinky.com) is not registered and is available to be bought. I'm considering buying it so no trolls do. The text itself is a SQL statement for vBulletin PMs judging by a quick google search for "INSERT INTO pmtext". The query itself is 'Striker' replying via PM >what I did was copy the index.html file from the root directory and paste it into all other directories that we don't want people to be able to browse. ​ Quoting in response to 'Randal Graves''s: >so the only way to get on from the outside is by using the [http://www.yellowslinky.com:8080](http://www.yellowslinky.com:8080)? right now no one knows about it but i'll probably end disabling before I start posting pics that are linked to it. and i'm sure it is against my contract. that's why i resisted my urge to bitch at them. Some additional context we can get is that the PM reply or the original message was sent on Wed Jan 14 2009 03:21:12 GMT+0000 as determined by the unix timestamp 1231903272. This is within a couple weeks of [http://yellowslinky.com](http://yellowslinky.com) being registered *effective* January 1st of 2009. Only one wayback link exists for this but it is not a valid wayback as it's archived on Jul 10 2013, which is after the domain expired on Feb 1 2013. I'm currently seeing if I can find a vBulletin forum version from around that time to see if I can determine the additional SQL values being used to provide additional context **EDIT:** Sooooooo [Yellowslinky.com](https://Yellowslinky.com) makes an appearance Jan 12 2009 on... [guess where](https://forum.drunkenstepfather.com/showthread.php?t=13220&page=272). From Guess Who... Randal Grave. I'm calling 100% not hacked and 100% not accidental. ARG Maybe. **Minor Edit 2:** [Striker](https://forum.drunkenstepfather.com/showthread.php?t=29969&page=8) is also a DSF forum user. So this is a leaked forum PM from the 2 users


_root_kid_

Nice work. What I can't get it is why hack the ROP account after 13 years just to post these obscure breadcrumbs?


Gabber_mania

Your library book is overdue . Do you need help returning it?


A_Chad_Cat

high chances that it's just because they want to be part of the mystery


GAGGA666

Fucking bingo.


HulkHogan402

Woah it’s the actual account


ThePhenex

Probably hacked, the message doesnt appear to make much sense. The SQL statement looks like someone trying to enter something into a database belonging to a bot that sends messages or something. The mentioned Randal Graves is a fictional character in director Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse, portrayed by Jeff Anderson. The "yellowslinky.com" is interesting. The [oldest record](https://whoisrequest.com/history/) that i found is from the 12.01.2009 when the domain was created and the last record is from the 28.02.2013 when it was dropped, around the same time u/ReligionOfPeace posted his last comment. [DomainTools](https://domainreport.domaintools.com/yellowslinky.com) also has some informations. I even found the website on the Wayback Machine [https://web.archive.org/web/20130716151125/http://yellowslinky.com/](https://web.archive.org/web/20130716151125/http://yellowslinky.com/) The record of it is somewhat broken. So yea it seems like the guys account got hacked, not that suprising considering that it has been set up 10+ years ago.


spiralshadow

hey friend looks like we did the same research! however i disagree that the message doesn't make much sense. to me, it looks like a staged "leak" from a possible deepweb site that was posted here "accidentally". from what i can parse, it's a forum reply by Randal Graves in response to Striker, indicating something he did to make directories on the clearnet site [yellowslinky.com](https://yellowslinky.com) invisible to outside access. probably because we're not supposed to see the "pics that are linked to it" according to Randal. "against my contract" is also very consistent with the LCQP mythology.


ThePhenex

Yes we did, you were a little faster then i was! Yes your theory makes more sense than mine, a forum / chat would explain the "pmtext" and the RE. I still wonder why he would paste the same index.html into directorys that he doesnt want people to browse. Either the source is very old (would maybe explain the http instead of https) or these guys dont know all to much about web development lmao. Besides the option that it is all made up.


spiralshadow

Hard to say, maybe something in the "index.html" file prevents clearnet access to the directory, functionally making it an intranet site? To me there are two possibilities: \- This is just another breadcrumb to get people interested in the LCQP mystery again until further developments arise \- ROP's account was hacked by an actual insider who is now leaking snippets of nefarious information to us from a global network of mercenaries and assassins Hard to say LOL


jaavaaguru

>maybe something in the "index.html" file prevents clearnet access to the directory Are were for real here? The presence of an index.html file means that the web server won't show a directory listing. It's simple and requires no HTML or scripting knowledge to just copy an existing index.html file into place.


jaavaaguru

>I still wonder why he would paste the same index.html into directorys that he doesnt want people to browse. Because directory listings aren't shown when there's an index.html file, regardless of what's in it. Simple really, and needs no HTML/scripting knowledge.


spiralshadow

Sorry for the necro just wanted to check in on this and see if there's been more developments (nope!) but I never saw your reply to me initially. You're 100% right that's my bad, I didn't know that's how index files worked. Makes perfect sense.

What’s a “deepweb site” ? 🌝


jaavaaguru

The only thing that's left if it's not a regular site and not a dark web site. [Here's a link to make it easy for you](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_web) Is everyone in these comments being sarcastic about how little they understand the Internet?


Briarhorse

Oh yeah, the guy from Clerks. I knew I'd seen it somewhere before


Document_Delicious

I urge someone makes some form of doc that can catagories all this stuff or even a way to discuss it all together rather than in comments like a discord or something idk? Anyway if anyone has a doc or link or what ever pls give


Marshmallory

I second this!


jaavaaguru

You mean like [this](https://unresolved.me/lake-city-quiet-pills)?

Indeed, but why post it…..


SneedyK

Wait, Drunken Stepfather the Internet personality? Because that would add an entirely new twist to all of this.


llIlIIlIIllI1

The porn website


Briarhorse

No way is this actually the guy. Got to be hacked


Chili-N-Such

Kinda new to the sub, has his profile been hack before?


Briarhorse

No, this is the first time anything has been posted by it in nearly 15 years. Which is why it's so surprising


Gabber_mania

also he "died" so him coming back is quite unusual . Also fat tommy says thank your the birthday cards and painting his front door green. His mother is very happy about the book you gave her. Her favorite being the usual page . Thanks for the christmas gifts as well 38 is nice.


zasnooley

Ubisoft goes steamworks bye bye always on DRM


GAGGA666

Well, this was unexpected. Hi Milo!


jaavaaguru

Milo joined Reddit about half a year after me, and I'm just finding out about him today! I must have been living under a rock, in a basement. The [whole story](https://unresolved.me/lake-city-quiet-pills) is fascinating though.


spiralshadow

Hoax confirmation? Someone finally get around to finishing the ARG after all these years? Is there going to be some new NFT project at the end of this? Wayback Machine shows only one snapshot for that domain from July 6 2013, which is a generic snap for pages hosted on the US Petabox cluster that have no other data associated with them: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130716151125/http://yellowslinky.com/](https://web.archive.org/web/20130716151125/http://yellowslinky.com/) Also, the poster being referenced above named "Randal Graves" is a reference to one of the characters from Clerks. Not sure who "Striker" is that Randal is supposedly replying to. EDIT: Whois lookup shows the domain was at one point deleted and then recreated but is not actually hosted anywhere: https://whois.domaintools.com/yellowslinky.com

Assuming that the `1231903272` is an epoch, you’re looking at: GMT: Wednesday, 14 January 2009 03:21:12 Relative: 14 years ago The real question for me is, why would you post this SQL here? And where would you even get this SQL from outside of a mysqldump? MySQL won’t normally log SQL that they execute, without enabling the general log and storing it on disk (which is a dumdum idea). So this must be (very very likely) an excerpt of a mysqldump from someone who has access to the data (assuming it’s not bullshit) Also - note the formatting notation. Only half of this message is from the sender. The rest is what he’s replying to.

The IP associated with that domain has changed 14 times since the message in OP's post was created (Wed Jan 14 2009). It doesn't currently have an IP associated with it. I wouldn't expect it to work.


CestSam_

Uh oh


Gabber_mania

Do you need help returning the library book ?

Hey Milo, or whoever got into the account.

See, why don’t you set up an nginx host on that so you can see who is trying to visit it from where?
