The craziest part is that SN and Predyx don’t have any mechanism to mitigate this kind of abuse/manipulation. And apparently nobody cares! Long live anarchy, hahaha.

I'm disappointed nobody posted this meme already

Ahahah, literally! Predyx (@Team_Predyx and @mega_dreamer) just straight-up ghosted it, and @k00b said he wasn't gonna change the code just because of a bet. But low-key, these zombie items could actually be a security hole because it's an attack on the SN, and it's free real estate!

A massive zombie items attack could, at the very least, pull off a DDoS.

You mean like if someone just keeps refreshing any page really fast for a while? That’d probably have the same effect, or maybe it would be even more effective, depending on the page that they are refreshing.

you're just doing inserts into the database tables with those zombie items. That's a whole different thing.

You think inserting one item is more expensive for the db than doing many joins across many tables to view many items, like for a huge comment section?

(We added pagination for comments because @ken's contest did indeed turn out to be a problem.)

Maybe they care... perpetuating this scam. I told you... it's a (scam) club and you ain't in it. At this level, it doesn't even have any sense to zap anymore on SN... I will try also an experiment: I will zap ONLY those that are NOT using the horse and pistol.

Good thing I didn’t waste even 1 sat on that scam. I’m not really into betting or gambling, I probably spend like 10€ a year on the EuroMillions! Hahaha.

In that experiment, how do you even know if the stacker has a horse and/or a gun if they’re hiding it?

lottery is a scam and euromillions is like a tax on stupidity. don't feed the beast. 10€ in sats today will be generational wealth in few years.

stacker has a horse and/or a gun if they’re hiding it?

not sure if that could be hidden, only the cowboy hat can be hidden.

I just tried it, and this option hides the horse and the gun. I think I read that this got changed in the last big update.
