LogicalGamers Gaia Wordlist project

[323]

Hey guys, wanna make a wordlist? It would be sweet if more people helped.

Right now I'm using cewl (linux program) to crawl gaia and generate a big wordlist, but I don't have the time to scan the entire website. If everyone could choose a URL and scan in with a depth of two, and then we all combine our wordlists, we could get a sweet and huge gaia wordlist going.

This could be utilized for dictionary-attacking a URL for spidering, guessing new site features, and other fun things like that.

anyway, anyone up for it? You gotta be running *nix or cygwin on windows and you have to install cewl.

I can do this later when I boot into linux.

I've never really found a need for a wordlist though.

Is it not possible to use Google for this? Google would have Gaia's highest word associations, but I don't know if they're displayed publicly. Doing a search for all the pages on the Gaia domain, and then pulling words from the displayed descriptions for the results, may be a quick and easy way to get heavily associated words.

Why would you need a wordlist?

Oh that's true, I didn't think of that before. I'll have to look into it.

Why would you need a wordlist?

Dictionary-attacking URLs and such. For example, if you're looking to find valid URLs to get the directory structure of something like a test server, you'll have to guess. Rather than raw-bruteforcing, you could use a gaia-based wordlist, that includes common gaia words like "gaia", "rally", "zomg", "marketplace", etc, rather than a generic wordlist.

I'm like 85% certain that a dictionary attack would be completely useless.
Edit: And if you wanted to make a gaia related wordbank, it'd be easier to do it by hand.
There's not a lot of gaia related words. Creating a system to make a large wordbank would probably be a waste of time.

Creating this large wordbank would take like two days... and creating one by hand is a shit idea, no offense. I've tried before, way too many words. You have to think of things like moddog, admincp, zomg, all of the admin real names and usernames, etc.

And yes, a dictionary attack is effective, I've used them before with small hand-compiled word lists and they've worked beautifully.

[Awesomolocity]

Get a list of staff usernames, list of games, and list of other common things.
Would be 500 words or less, and most could be copy+pasted.

And creating a word list using multiple people would probably give you too many words, that would be most worthless, common words.

Also, Tree is trying to keep things nice in here. Hence why he deleted the posts from The Unwinnible and myself. xP

Get along children, quit trying to start up unneeded drama or arguments it only makes this place look worse.

HE STARTED IT, MR. TREE

[The Unintelligible]

Um, if they're arguments pertinent to the topic at hand then it by no means is "unneeded drama." That's only limiting discussion. We don't need people like Tree buttering this place up. Seriously, stop deleting any and every post *you* consider offensive. You are going to make this a serious issue regarding your moderatorship.

As for Awesomecity or whatever his name is, didn't see his post, don't care what he wrote. Don't care who he is. All I know is the dude is pretty stupid which makes him a hypocrite for saying Flare is stupid for expressing an idea.

If you intended for it to be a joke then you should have said the idea is stupid, not Flare himself. It was out of place for you to inexplicably call Flare out like that.

Them insulting each other had nothing to do with the topic. It's not about me deleting because I find offensive (which I don't), it's because it's spam period.

Except it isn't spam. You've deleted more than a fair share of (at least mildly) relevant posts. If it holds relevance, then it's only unwise to delete them.

Bottom line is it isn't really helpful. It wasn't solicited or necessary. As you could tell, I wasn't being blunt in my posts. The harmless message I was trying to get across was that it was unneeded and ironic that he would call another member stupid.

You seem a little too trigger happy with your position.

Good idea! nice initiative!
