Hotlinkers need pain

so, this person on some OC board, has strung together some of my icons (really, only one - brens hands) with several of fallen_graphix's bren icons.

this would even be kind of cool, except for the fact they are HOTLINKING to them, wasting my bandwidth and COSTING ME MONEY. i have to pay for my bandwidth, kids, due to the fact i own my own domain.

i know this, as i know how to use my stats to find out how people get to my site and anything on it. including the pics and graphics. so i went on a hotlinker hunt yesterday, and emailed one possibly seven year old who cant type about hotlinking my 'allo!' icon.

she emailed me back: im sry alia i can upgrade stuff im really sry u have aol i do?

what? was that even english?

am having a bad couple of days.

screwed up my blog last night and managed to wipe the database while trying to install wordpress, and now i cant log in at all! *cries* and im going to have to reinstall the stupid thing again, and all my pretty pretty posts are gone! *weeps bitterly*

gah. not good day. bad. bad bad.

*STAB STAB STAB*

mother fucking HOTLINKERS!

so, like i said, i emailed the seven year old who cant type. heres a complete transcript of our emails, with names removed.

Hi! Im alia, and I made the icon of the wormdude that you are using in
your signature at this board:
http://www.ghost-roads.com/cgi-bin/desmondforum/YaBB.cgi?board=3way;action=display;num=1089250925

im glad you like it and that you are using it, but you could please
save it to your hard drive and upload it somewhere (photobucket is
good)? at the moment, you are hotlinking it off my site, which costs
me money.

thanks!

Not a big deal, but i do need you to move it to your own server. if
you dont know how, i can help you.

no, i dont use AOL.

then please remove it from your signature at the board.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


im the bitch here? good grief, i even offered to tell her HOW to use photobucket. when she refused to remove it, i turned on my hotlink protection. its not perfect, but it does help. but gaaaaaaaaah. *kicks seven year old* i also dont think you are getting the full effect of the emails...her emails have a linkin park background. her text is green outlined in black. the font is -7 pts. my eyes, they bleed!

i hate people today. except for all my lovely friends *pets flist*

ETA: one last email from the seven year old:
ill get it back from someone nicer and BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
