TLE did not black out the boards. TLE started spewing NAZI hate all over the boards, then Al in his anger blacked them out. Al changed the text color to match the background color of black. It didn't take long for some to figure out how to read the text (by highlighting), and the posting continued with many jokes about it now being part of a secret cabal moon base.

Other than the detail about who blacked out the boards, I remember it the same as you.

I seem to remember Justin talking about someone hacking into his computer, but I think that happened later.

I'm not so sure TLE is james. What makes you certain of this? just wondering. In any case TLE is a real nutball, who also seems technically challenged in an oddly inconsistant way.
