Rich stuck up dumbass -

Mac the Janitor · #31 08-21-2003, 10:32 PM

This isn't good. Someone wants to intentionally ruin Death's reputation and/or position in the Oddlympics. Which doesn't really make sense, 'cause nobody else applied for the Oddlympics position when I posted it besides Death.

I have a headache.

Codek · #32 08-21-2003, 10:36 PM

It's no big deal, I'll just remember to be more "secure" with things in future.

And take an asprin. There's nothing worse than a headache while in front of a PC.

I dont use AOL, NETZERO, MSN, etc. I use dsl.net, its a bit more on the expensive side, but Ive been one of the only people in my area who has had dsl for almost five years, while everyone else is stuck with slow dialup aol.

Although our entire school network runs on a t1 line, otherwise it would be pretty much worthless.

Codek · #34 08-21-2003, 11:17 PM

I don't live in the US. And we don't have T1 where I live, it's called something else, but it's just as fast.

Jeebers. If you were really so rich, I think it would be possible to just get an internet connection faster than a rock and just use free email accounts, which I find work just fine. Someones being thilly.

I think I'm starting to get what you're implying. HEY! In what way am I like Reese? AOL have, what, 2million users in the UK don't they? (At least, I think that's where Reese lives...) Surely you must have at least 10 users here with crappy AOL. And it is crappy. Don't worry I'm getting a different service soon.

NOBODY shares my IP, because it changes each time I get on the net,

And if someone ever has the same IP I do, it's probably because I am on their line (which is a one in 4.5 billion chance by the way).

Wow.... you sure change your mind fast eh? *knudge knudge*
This is pretty funni...

And DI, I was thinking the same thing. But please, can you try and remember that I never threatened to compromise the security of the forums

:

As tempted as I am to take a big fat screenshot of all the stuff exposed and in the open, the database, PMs, and other types of administrative red tape, I am not going to.

So ummm. you looked at the pm database, adminstrative stuff is not comprimising the security of the forum???

Disgruntled Intern · #37 08-22-2003, 01:53 AM

This is bullshit.

I can't believe people are really this blind as to what's going on.

What is really going on, DI?

Disgruntled Intern · #39 08-22-2003, 04:47 AM

Ask me about it on msn.

Facsimile · #40 08-22-2003, 10:17 AM

Do tell me also. I have ideas but... ideas = fewer teeth, I find.

Codek · #41 08-22-2003, 12:24 PM

Sorry, but what did I do wrong here?

For letting *hackers* = urself hack your account... and creating all these arguements there after....

Codek · #43 08-22-2003, 12:37 PM

Huh? I don't get it. What did I do?

I didn't "let" hackers get into my account, it's not my job to secure the forums. And I didn't hack my own account for goshs sakes, I got access to it already!

And I didn't cause an argument did I?

The Red Muse · #44 08-22-2003, 12:50 PM

So...uh... is there a hacker around OWF or not?

(Sorry Death I post here, but I just gotta know what's going on...)

Codek · #45 08-22-2003, 12:54 PM

I guess there must be.

I'm not going to make a big fuss out of it though...

And you don't need to ask permission to post in my threads you know!

Oddfan · #46 08-22-2003, 01:11 PM

Sorry to interrupt but Death didn't "hack himself." as I said before a guest! was making a thread.

Guests are also caused if you are viewing the forums in more than one window, or if you have an attachment open. Also if either myself or Peter accesses the Admin CP, we will appear as a guest viewing the main forums index.

Why is everyone heistant to state the obvious? Death created the original post, and became overjoyed with the ensuing confusion/attention.

Yes that is true, i agree totally with Sydney.

Facsimile · #50 08-23-2003, 08:52 AM

Man that was funny when PA got hacked. Ahahaha. The memory makes me smile.

***Wil*** · #51 08-23-2003, 09:35 AM

I don't remember. Can we have a link?

Facsimile · #52 08-23-2003, 10:34 AM

I ran a search and think it must have been deleted. But it was good, especially when Jacob replied.

***Cloverfield*** · #53 08-23-2003, 03:23 PM

The old PA hacked topic got moved to Necrum. It was quite a bit more extreme than this one.

http://www.oddworldforums.net/forums...?threadid=7776

Sorry PA if you didn't want this thread bought back up.

Abe Babe...

***Wil*** · #54 08-23-2003, 05:22 PM

Ah, I see. Hilarious, but sympathy to PA. May I ask how it was determined it was a hacker? The thread seemed cut short.

oddguy · #55 08-23-2003, 10:19 PM

Poor paramiteabe.

I don't know what i'd do if I got hacked. And I believe that Death was hacked as well...................he's not the kind of guy to make things up.

Exactly. I know this sounds dumb, but Death would never create this topic himself. We talk via email back and forth every single day, and trust me, he wouldn't do this. Lately he's really been trying to clear up his name and earn more respect around here...why would he do this and just go right back down to the bottom?

oddguy · #57 08-24-2003, 04:25 AM

He's got my respect!

I don't think it would be very logical to hack yourself!

The only people who do that stuff are the forumers starving for attention, and Death simply isn't the type.

Codek · #58 08-24-2003, 12:10 PM

Aww thanks guys!

Yeah, I promise I didn't make this up. I'll get enough attention as it is with the new Oddlympics...

And as Mac said, my "rappor" here isn't great. Trust me everyone I just want to be nice and get along. I don't bite, honest!

And thanks for saying that Oddguy, I really appreciate it. I'll make sure I respect ya back.

Props to all our supporters for Oddlympics independance too!
