LOST Sites: S.H.A.D.E. vs. S.H.I.N.E.
Well those cooky nuts over at 4815162342.com have started a grassroots group called S.H.A.D.E. (Stop Hanso’s Arrogant and Dangerous Experimentation). Although, I admit that I was a bit peeved that their discussion threads on 4815162342.com’s Lost Experience forum almost completely overran the board, I have to admire their tenacity and organization. Basically, S.H.A.D.E. is a group of ARG gamers tired of waiting for clues, so as a means of alleviate boredom, they started their own anti-Hanso organization complete with logos and merchandise all done with-in the span of a few days.
S.H.A.D.E. Official Mission Statement:
S.H.A.D.E. (Stop Hanso’s Arrogant and Dangerous Experimentation) is an organized group of concerned citizens that is demanding answers from the self proclaimed “Future” of The Hanso Foundation
We are here to ask questions and DEMAND answers from The Hanso Foundation and its corrupt Board of Directors.
While we can not condone the actions of others (i.e.: Persephone, Rachel Blake, GidgetGirl, Mel0drama etc.), we cannot ignore the information that they have provided in their efforts to hold The Hanso Foundation responsible for their actions.
We will seek all LEGAL means to involve multiple governing bodies as well as the global media to seek answers from The Hanso Foundation as well as protest in all forms available (internet, e-mail, letters and protests)
We invite you to join with us as we move toward a better understanding of The Hanso Foundation’s activities and experiments. Together our voices can not be ignored, and accountability for the actions of this foundation will not fly “under the radar” any longer!
S.H.A.D.E. - “So Hanso’s Tomorrow Never Sees the Light of Day”
Interestingly enough, a counter-group has also started calling themselves S.H.I.N.E (Save Hanso’s Innocent and Nice Experiments)
S.H.I.N.E. Official Mission Statement:
The Hanso Foundation was created by Alvar Hanso and his crew. They did great experiments and made the world a better place. Then all of a sudden Alvar Hanso went missing. His crew didn’t know what to do. The Board of Directors quickly took over. They completly destroyed all the things Alvar worked hard for. The Hanso Foundation….was sabotaged.
The Board of Directors conducted evil plots and experiments. These experiments contained abuse againest a 105-year-old orangatang, experiments harmful to the Earth, and much much more. They even hired the goverment to hide what they were doing. Some people think that Alvar Hanso is the cause of the problem. This people are from a group called SHADE.
Who’s side are you on?
UPDATE:
It appears that the members of the SHADE movement have become infamous during their short existance. Aside from a discussion about them on the Fuselage, it appears that they have come to the attention of the Speaker. The following is an e-mail that SHADE members recieved this morning.

Just a heads-up (though most of us are aware of this anyway):As you may have know, SHADE, shadeoftruth.com is an out-of-game site that has
been advertised here and at other sties.You may or may not know that this fansite has an organized plan to gain
attention, which includes spamming every Lost and Hanso-related site.To blog posters:
They have an interesting site, so go take a look, if you’re curious. If not,
just remember to ignore the boars.I’m not trying to be authoritarian in the slightest (and I’m sorry if it comes
off as even slightly that way). I’m just spreading the word to prevent any
future agitation caused by this spam campaign.To the members of SHADE: You have posted your link more than enough and are all
aware of your site. In fact, I have even plugged your site by making this post.
So there you go, you’re done.Posting anymore spam is not going to accomplish anything at all and is extremely
unwelcome, so please stop.

I myself have had a run in with these self proclaimed “Shaders”. Yesterday, I came home from work to find my mailbox inundated with hate mail from members of SHADE. Apparently, what happened was someone went onto their site, and spammed their forum in retaliation for spamming 4815162342.com a few days earlier.
I am a member and frequently visit the numbers forum, so when SHADE hijacked the Lost Experience forum, I was very vocal about it. Because of this, many of their members assumed that I was the one spamming their site. Needless to say, I was irate over this, but after a strongly worded post by me on their forum, and most likely some moderator intervention, the hate mail has, thankfully, ceased. Although I was completely pissed off over this, I realize that this was just a missunderstanding. However, I most likely won’t be making any plans to be attending any SHADE get-togethers any time soon.
