I suggest that as a rule of thumb anyone attempting a stupid XSS against the site should have their privilage to a hidden IP address revoked and posted for all eyes to see. You never know what good it might do you or others plus some might start getting the hint that its not a smart idea. Then leave a small message in the XSS vids description about this.

Failed XSS topics will slow down plus the number of stupid wannabes that are never going to even earnestly try to learn will go down as the scupplesless internet takes advantage of their stupidity.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) I don't keep track of anyone's IP address.  Besides those idoits don't know what an IP address is or read the forum!

If I had a dollar for every time a person tried the xss attack on the forums after the video… I would be several hundred dollars richer.

Whats about an alert box or somethin simular which appears when someone open the xss video and tell that this  vuln is patched allready. That would at least stop the persons who looks the video on that page.

With great power comes great responsibility. Have a look at this webpage: securityoverride.com

Hmm…how hard would it be to code it so that you can get their IPs and then distribute them?

It wouldn't be hard at all, but it's not something I want to spent my time doing.

Wouldn't that just be redundant?Confused Were trying to get them to stop doing that test, not make them go wtf when they see it because they'll just think that they did it.

Being able to break security doesn't make you a hacker any more than being able to hotwire cars makes you an automotive engineer.

When the alert box appear when they try to watch the video on this page (http://infinityexists.com/vide…..episode13/) they will not think they did it because it appears before watching the video and so they have no idea about xss and have no input given.
