This script doesn't print anything - Nightgunner5 - 01-13-2013
Code:
echo butt^butt
echo #!|ncp butt /mnt/lp-office|nbutts^butts
buttsalso it may have destroyed the universe

Hey thanks for crashing a server with something you knew could cause an infinite loop

Hahah you bastard.

i separately had a similar idea, (infinite loop of functions calling other functions and writing each other and stuff) and decided to mentorhelp whether or not this would crash the server or just lock up the DWAINEframe. I then was told that this is what crashed the other server, and was like, "...Oh... wait... oh..."
It seems to be the nature of first-time DWAINEframers to gravitate towards infinite loops.
Also, damn, I'm really glad i asked first, i wouldn't want to be the SECOND idiot to crash a server with the coding system and get it taken away ):

you crashed a video game server using the simulated computer inside the game

No good nerds destroying us from within.we should only let the idiots use computers, nerds are too dangerous.

DWAINE is OP and an unfunny gimmik! Remove DWAIN!

I always kind of figured that the DWAINE interpreter was restricted to a certain number of calculations per BYOND tick, so that at worst it would just lock up the in-game terminal. Either it doesn't, or this command somehow breaks that restriction.
Either that, or all DWAINE terminals are actually quantum computers that manipulate the fabric of the SS13 universe in order to operate; so a coding error could alter or erase reality. Which would explain why there is no programmer job; all programmers are put to death before they destroy the universe.

Someone should link this story to the best moments thread for future reference,
The time someone used an infinite butt loop to crash the server.
