Deleted User 009 0 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hey Asulon, As some of you may have noticed, one of our Forum Moderator's accounts was compromised by an individual they knew IRL, who then proceeded to deleted and grief parts of our forums including the hugely popular "Show Yourself" thread. The account was compromised 3 hours ago, and has since been re-secured. However, we cannot recover the deleted threads without doing a full forum rollback of 6 hours; and at this point we feel that that would cause more damage than has already been done. We're very sorry for any inconveniences this may have caused you and promise we're looking further into this "security breach" to determine whether or not the FM in question should be permanently demoted. EDIT: Just spoke with the culprit, needless to say I'm pissed. I've censored some parts of the conversation and replaced his name with "Rogue Forum Hacker" [8:41:56 AM] Rogue Forum 'Hacker' Hype has told me what you've done [8:42:04 AM] Rogue Forum 'Hacker' But I know your a good person [8:42:07 AM] Vaquxine: You have no idea how much you piss me off [8:42:14 AM] Rogue Forum 'Hacker' I know it does [8:42:21 AM] Vaquxine: 'it'?

~ Ashdrek / CalmCrysis ~ 32 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I know the Forum Moderator in question in real life, and I was on Skype with him when the incident occurred, with the "griefer" activating the video chat. I think that the Forum Moderator in question had no way of fighting back because he was tied up by said "griefer", and therefore should be given his position back, and the account of the griefer banned.

What's to stop this griefer from tieing him up again? This is the second incident. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ Ashdrek / CalmCrysis ~ 32 Share Posted June 10, 2012 What's to stop this griefer from tieing him up again? This is the second incident. Well, the griefer was invited over to his home, and I suggested that the Forum Moderator not allow the griefer near his computer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aryon 679 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I know him IRL too. I don't know what to support. The assailant is twice the size of The FM and he honestly had no way of fighting back. I don't know what should be done, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lirinya 4035 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Incidents of this nature has happened to Hyper twice now. Once some time ago and now recently. In between these situations Hyper has never been in-trouble and I know several times he has spoke of issues with irl friends. I have asked Robin to look into this, considering he leads the FMs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyndikate 2303 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Has he shared a password with his friend? Has he left his computer unsecured? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that I clearly do not understand the whole thing but to me , It sounds rather.. dodgy. Somebody " ties you up " , just to get access to your FM account to grief forums? Perhaps I sound ignorant or something of that nature , but as I said , it sounds rather extreme. How are we to know it was not a set-up of the sort or something along those lines? Because , as it stands , it sounds very extreme to me. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ΚΨΙΞ 710 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I in my personal opinion think that he should still face the consequences he left his computer with someone that griefed the forums and albeit he was tied up he should of thought better. I'm not raging/flaming or disrespecting a ex-staff member but that is my overall opinion. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemontide331 1615 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I'm sorry but "His friend tied him up" sounds completely unrealistic. I don't see why someone would tie you up to delete a few threads off the LotC forum. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braxis 813 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I'm sorry but "His friend tied him up" sounds completely unrealistic. I don't see why someone would tie you up to delete a few threads off the LotC forum. Well its happened before, one time he got creative and his friend pushed him off his own Computer and kep Hyp off so he could spawn stuff for himself. The reason we know this is due to his friend admitting this on his ban appeal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said again im not trying to be mean, but didn't his friend who pushed him off his computer then say it never happened and he was forced to say that because he felt that people wouldn't like him, or am I getting mixed up with another person?

lemontide331 1615 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Either way, it's happened twice now. It could happen again. Why is this person even his friend? And why would you let someone like that come to your house? Edit: His friend is obviously some kind of maniac (If this 'friend' actually exists), first pushing him off a computer for some pixelated items and now tying him up.
