With no Admistrators around (probably sleeping from last night) and the troll doing a post a minute and starting in at Clutch's wife, I decided to shut down this Forum. While my programmers don't have Admin status on the BBS, they can change names of directories. So, we temporarily changed the name of this Forum, and they scrapped his ass out of the bbs files. Give it up for our guru Unix admin!

heyp: next time, just drop me an email. Better yet, email me if you have an ICQ number and we can hook up that way. ------------------ I am very very sleepy.

so does heypee get admin status for this? ------------------ The next time I have meat and mashed potatoes, I think I'll put a very large blob of potatoes on my plate with just a little piece of meat. And if someone asks me why i didn't get more meat, ill just say, "Oh, you mean this?" and pull out a big piece of meat from inside the blob of potatoes, where ive hidden it. Good magic trick, huh?
Well, when he went after Clutch's wife, I first considered disconnecting the server for 20 minutes so he would get bored, while I used LAN access to move all his posts down. But the Unix admin for this server loves a challenge, like chasing after hackers all the way into their servers. Didn't take him too long to pull out his grep-ing tools to eliminate all traces of our boy.
What would HeyP do with that Admin status ? I think his first act would be to ban me. ------------------ "We don't have any plans. We just plan to win." Mack Brown
Jeff, Sorry, I thought you were sleeping it off last night like Clutch or something. We took the opportunity to add more RAM also, to prevent the memory leak from crashing us again. [This message has been edited by heypartner (edited January 17, 2001).]

Great job Heypee! Nothing like a little hi-tech warfare to dump trolls. That idiot had it coming, hopefully he is banned for life. ------------------ "I have a scale at home and it only goes up so far, I love that scale!" - Charles Barkley TNT Studios

jeff, He also registered as pippen76. You might want to go ban that, too. Do you ban IP addresses or just names?
