Title: You best be trollin'
Post by: Ben on August 18, 2009, 09:22:41 PM: Hi Charas.

A few of the regular members have taken it upon themselves to instigate some mass drama, and consequentially some spam floods.
Please be patient and bear with, its nothing that wont be fixed/cleanedup/banned

Dont feed the trolls, keep on keeping on. The place will be cleaned up soon, I promise.
In the meantimes, I should have the Next game of the month up and doisplayed in the wee-wee-weeeee hours of the night. For now, its off to work.

Post by: Cerebus on August 18, 2009, 09:29:46 PM: We need more Mods!

But seriously...
I'm quite curious as to why the spam.
Although at the same time, I don't really care much.
Yeah.

Post by: Cerebus on August 18, 2009, 09:37:30 PM: Wow, doesn't take much.
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: fruckert on August 18, 2009, 09:39:54 PM: I personally think they were just bored.

Anyways, they hit some of the Wiki too, I'll go and fix that.

EDIT: Never mind, apparently I can't revert pages.

Post by: Cerebus on August 18, 2009, 09:41:19 PM: Yeah. Must be pretty bored. Even I haven't fell that low... yet.
Human Stupidity Syndrome strikes back!
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Darkfox on August 18, 2009, 10:20:45 PM: I dunno if it really was trollin' or just wanting an excuse for leaving completely. Either way I wasn't going to spoil it for them, though I must admit that I am a bit disheartened by their preferred form of departure...

RIP dudes.

Yeah.

Nope. We need admins online. Luckily, Moose was quick to take action. We heart Moose
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Darkfox on August 19, 2009, 07:06:09 AM: Yeah, we have a strange curse where an admin tends to come in after a big ruckus. It has always been this way... for some reason. I don't know why it is, sure is a strange coincidence of occurrences.

But, yes, yay for Moose! :D
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Drace on August 19, 2009, 07:49:51 PM: Isn't Razor an active enough admin? Also, there's load of mods doing their job just fine. Not sure about the massive spamming that happened as I was off to play Gitah Lord, but from what I heard, Osmose cleared the problem fast.

tl;dr: Mods and Admins are fine, stop blaming them for every single thing.
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Cerebus on August 19, 2009, 10:09:50 PM: Well I wasn't serious about it.
I'm well aware new Mods wouldn't change much.
Although I quite agree with the need of a more active admin, actions were taken quite fast.
Yay Osmose!
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Osmose on August 19, 2009, 10:45:23 PM: Ah, the praise of the people. *blush*

Considering evidence that the spamming was not intentional but the work of someone hijacking their accounts, the three responsible have been unbanned after they changed their passwords. Needless to say, if anything happens again, there won't be a second chance. >=D

Post by: _JeT_ on August 19, 2009, 11:22:44 PM: And what evidence is that?

I said what when now?
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Cerebus on August 20, 2009, 12:04:16 AM: To be honest, I don't really believe the hijacking thing, but oh well...
Plus, I don't recall Drace being as worst as the others. Unless he wasn't the third one.
Well, anyway...
Yeah...
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Vlad Shadeu on August 20, 2009, 12:07:36 AM: Actually i think i only cared once it got to the whole "who still cares about TacTiles" part.
Yeah, i exaggerated. Sorry phoenix-bird-man-flame-thing.
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Osmose on August 20, 2009, 02:35:23 AM: Evidence involving IPs and traceroutes and stuff. This has, however, been refuted. The bans have been reinstated. Rejoice?
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Cerebus on August 20, 2009, 02:38:36 AM: Yes.

Death to the trolls!

Also... you mentioned 3 responsible for this. Who's the third?
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: fruckert on August 20, 2009, 02:43:26 AM: Drace?
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: Cerebus on August 20, 2009, 02:52:58 AM: I don't know, he isn't that bad. Especially compared with the others. Unless I missed something.
Title: Re: You best be trollin'
Post by: fruckert on August 20, 2009, 02:05:02 PM: Yeah he posted about...four times during that.

But he was pretty trolly, seeing as he would just flame indiscriminately.

Very disappointed.

Yahoo ads does that job well enough.
