2023 Sleepycat attacks on MicroWiki

The **2023 attacks on the MicroWiki community by Sleepycat** began on 21 February 2023 when a Sleepycat user called "fetty fave" (also known as SluttyBabe234) vandalized Gerria's article page, causing an edit conflict that kept reverting the page between Slutty's sexually positive revision and JunoTehPlanet's sexually negative revision. Within hours into the war, Slutty was blocked by site administrator MattL, but then he returned again on 24 February and was later blocked by Luxor for vandalism charges on the wiki.

It has been a part of the much broader Gerrian-OWOT Cold War, that has been raging for months.

## Background

Sleepycat was founded on mid-November 2022, while MicroWiki was founded in 2005.

MicroWiki is a website dedicated to being an encyclopedia of micronations across the world. With each one having their own article, including Gerria itself.

Sleepycat on the other hand is a much younger and weaker chat room website launched in mid-November of 2022 as a chatroom and a remake of Wokecat.

Both websites and their communities have little to no relationship with each other, as they have never established any friendly interactions in between and their characteristics are entirely different in the sense that the MicroWiki is an encyclopedia while Sleepycat is a chat room website.

## History

### Prelude to the events

On the night of 20 February 2023, emperor Posada I of Gerria doxxed his entire family's personal information on the Sleepycat chat website, which may have lead to the prelude of the attacks.

In response to the doxxing incident, Posada said he would not let anybody go to his house even if they tried, Any OWOT and Sleepycat users caught within the borders of Gerria will be deported and beaten by spanking. in response to the incident.

Posada said he banned all Sleepycat and OWOT users from entering any buildings with addresses in the two adjacent streets that the First Headquarters resides in, and that he will quickly respond negatively by flagging any inappropriate emails sent to him and his parents.

Sleepycat reacted to the efforts with no opinion on them. They attempted to send inappropriate email messages to Posada's mother Jarlyn, of which she would have been mad if she received them.

Benjamin Posada told everyone to read about the doxxing incidents in the MicroWiki article about Gerria that can be read here.

Sooner or later, a Sleepycat user named "fetty fave" said he is going to edit the article to a "better version", Posada in response argued that there is no "better version" and that his revision is the best version of the article. Fetty in reaction did not care anyways and decided to edit the article page, although Posada in response would be reverting it back to the original revision, which would later lead to an edit conflict.

### Image mobilization

On the midnight of 21 February 2023 (Gerrian local time, CST), Fetty logged in to the MicroWiki website as a user named "SluttyBabe234", and later began to download pornographic images shortly afterwards. Although it is currently unknown as to what website he downloaded the explicit images from up to this date, and an investigation regarding that is currently taking place. But notable explicit images that have been downloaded included a naked girl wearing bunny ears and a photo titled "Weirdsex" which depicted sexual intercourse between a couple.

He began to reupload the images to the MicroWiki website and he started to edit the article page about Gerria, with the bunny girl replacing the photo of Posada in the leaders of membership section and the "Weirdsex" photo replacing the Gerrian flag in the infobox, And a fictional slogan called "We love havin' hot sex" replacing the motto "The greatest company in the world" also on the infobox.

### Beginning of the first edit conflict

In a response to Slutty vandalizing the article by adding explicit material to the page, Posada became furious with Slutty for adding porn to his page, he decides to revert the page back to the original revision, Slutty in response reverted the page to his own pornography revision. In an edit conflict between the two users over the page, Posada eventually won the battle after hour 02 (Gerrian local time).

Here is a chronology of the revisions in the edit conflict, by Slutty and by Posada. The time is represented as UTC time, which is 6 hours before the Gerrian time.

* 06:19, Slutty revision
* 06:24, Posada revision
* 06:25, Slutty revision
* 06:29, Posada revision
* 06:36, Slutty revision
* 06:38, Posada revision - "WHAT DID I JUST SAY DO NOT ADD PORN TO THIS PAGE, YOUR PROOF IS FAKE AND A LIE"
* 06:38, Slutty revision - "MINE EVEN MAKES MORE SENSE"
* 06:42, Posada revision - "MY EDIT MAKES EVEN MORE SENSE, ITS OBVIOUSLY CORRECT, PORN IS ILLEGAL IN GERRIA, AND YET YOU DON'T LISTEN, NOW STOP EDITING THE PAGE AND LEAVE IT ALONE"
* 06:53, Slutty revision
* 06:56, Posada revision - "Please do not add porn to this page again"
* 07:01, Slutty revision - "Please stop vandalizing. Gerria is exclusively a porn micronation." (It actually isn't, don't trust Slutty)
* 08:08, Posada revision - "Gerria is not exclusively a porn micronation, correction"

The edit conflict appears to have ended in Posada's victory on 21 February 2023 at 02:08 (CST).

### Administrator intervention and Discord server notified.

in the morning (CST), a user on the Discord MicroWiki server named Strubber had told everyone on the server to block Slutty for vandalism using explicit material. other wiki administrators in response came to investigate and intervene in the edit conflict's aftermath.

The two micronations known their pages vandalized by Slutty included Gerria (having it's article page directly vandalized in an edit conflict), and indirectly New Prussia (it's leader's user page was vandalized by Slutty, but later edited to a better revision).

At around 11 (CST), MattL, a wiki administrator for MicroWiki blocked Slutty for an indefinite period due to the vandalism, and all of Slutty's explicit pictures were deleted. while Andrew launched an investigation on him.

### Second edit conflict

Slutty created another account called "Sluttybabe234d" as an alternative to his old one, Slutty later began vandalizing the article again, saying things like the 23 oblasts being called "nudists" and the false belief about Gerria being "porn-positive" when it is actually porn-negative.

About 1 hour later, Luxor reverted the page to Posada's revision and indefinitely blocked Slutty's other account so that he doesn't return again.

### Aftermath

Luxor talked to Slutty in a short conversation in the aftermath of the attacks, Slutty was confirmed to have some issues. The Gerrian Government later discovered on 9 March 2023 that Slutty was using a VPN at the time of the attacks.

On 16 March 2023, the Gerrian government discovered that Slutty created 27 accounts, with the first one being the original account together with 26 other accounts all ending in a certain letter in the alphabet, the only ones that caused vandalism was Slutty's original account and Slutty's "d" account, both are blocked for an indefinite period, all the other accounts ("a" through "c" and "e" through "z") were never used. A list of the accounts by creation date are shown here, with time in UTC:
