Some people. Rhothaerill> Okay...did he actually decrypt it, or just guess it? conmcb25> Ya Houston we got a problem Rhothaerill> If he guessed it then all we need is to have the admin change our password using the admin password. conmcb25> Read the text he decrpted it Rhothaerill> Decrypt can mean several things conmcb25> He works for the ****ing NSA , Rhoth Rhothaerill> Blah! conmcb25> So what do we do? Rhothaerill> Beats me. If he starts telling people these decryption codes of his he can obviously screw everyone. conmcb25> True * Octavian_X has joined #c3cisdg * ChanServ sets mode: +o Octavian_X conmcb25> He got ejected from there team Rhothaerill> But if F-P is kicking him out then hopefully it will be a moot point...though I'm not that naive conmcb25> OCT_X welcome Octavian_X> Hello Octavian_X> Who was kicked out? conmcb25> Read this we got a problem E_T[photography-tiedye]> thing is, if he's using decrypts that are "confidential" then he could be in very big trouble (Reposted the chat with F_P from above) Octavian_X> that is just freaking scary... conmcb25> Ya conmcb25> What do we want to do? conmcb25> Thoughts? E_T[photography-tiedye]> Con, tell F-P to turn his name into the NSA, because he likely has government decrypts on his personal computer, which is a very big no-no Rhothaerill> Post at the UN I would think...though that is F-P's job Octavian_X> Well... Octavian_X> Only the Ladder could use our save PW, for one. conmcb25> OK E_T I'm for disclosing this at the UN, so teams can be warned about this guy. conmcb25> OK conmcb25> Maybe we should get F_P over here in a FAM channel? conmcb25> Can you set one up OCT_X? Octavian_X> hmm... Octavian_X> something like #c3c_isdg_embassy? conmcb25> Its just /join xxxxxx E_T[photography-tiedye]> we can also get the admin to redo the password, but then he might also have the admin password conmcb25> Ya that would work Octavian_X> I don't think the admin PW can be reset. conmcb25> L:et do a separtae room ET we need one anyway Octavian_X> All we can relly do it is trust that all teams would act as F-P did. E_T[photography-tiedye]> this has implecations for more than this one team E_T[photography-tiedye]> and game conmcb25> Yes * TogasIDLE is now known as Togas * WB|Maybe_sickness_isnt_so_bad has joined #c3cisdg Togas> reading this now conmcb25> Fred thinks he may have the other passwords as well * WB|Maybe_sickness_isnt_so_bad is now known as WhiteBandit conmcb25> And why wouldn't he? Togas> I don't think this is a problem * ZargonX has joined #c3cisdg Togas> if he's off their team, then all is fine * Beta has joined #c3cisdg they did the right thing by removing him OK to catch everyone up please read this from F_P at PAL: (I again posted the chat with F_P above) onmcb25> OK do we want him in chat? Togas> tell him he did the right thing by removing the player and that we trust him and are sure that this matter has been settled conmcb25> Do we want this brought up at the UN? Togas> why? Togas> No UN Togas> the ladder team doesn't need to be slandered conmcb25> You sure? Togas> I'm sure Togas> no harm has been done to anyone, nor will it be done * Octavian_X has quit IRC (Ping timeout) E_T[photography-tiedye]> Hey, I don;t have any conmcb25> Everyone else OK with that? conmcb25> Rhoth? conmcb25> E_T? conmcb25> BETA?

WhiteBandit> F-P handeled it well Togas> WhiteBandit> i have the utmost respect and trust for him Beta> sure did Beta> yup E_T[photography-tiedye]> If F-P posts about it at UN, we just play it down, and have him send the guy's IP addy to all of the team captains and he won't get into any team conmcb25> OK sounds pretty much unanimous Beta> hey - you spelled that right E_T[photography-tiedye]> as a matter of fact, we should have him send it to all of the different civ site admins WhiteBandit> ultimately ip addresses don't matter WhiteBandit> if he really wanted to get by, he just uses a proxy connection

I'm not sure that is really fair Uber. The entire site should not be made to suffer because of the actions of one idiot. F-P did the right thing in coming to us and we shouldn't hold it against him.

If we annihilate their civ because it makes sense to do so that is different. But we shouldn't be headhunting for them just because of what happened tonight.
