I have walked onto MUDs and, annoyed at being killed by some wizard for saying "hi," (stupid n00b move on my part) figured out how to bring the game to a screeching halt in about fifteen minutes. They had to bring it all down and patch to make me go away. This wasn't a testament to my ability, it's just that nobody was thinking about this stuff in a defensive way.
Oh, your system won't let me email that file out, you'll just return it to me? Well, lemme just forge my send from so you give it to me anyway.
I got up to a lot of horsing around, almost all of it non-destructive because getting attention generally is not a great thing and it wasn't my stuff, I just wanted to see what was out there and you either had to hear about it from someone who knew it already or you had to stumble across it.
