Presenting SANFAM THE GULLIBLE!!!
First, refer to this post: [url="http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/Forum16/HTML/002058.html"]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/Forum16/HTML/002058.html[/url]

Notice the posts with the "This message has been edited by Warleader (edited {date})" in them...well, those of us with that added that line in our posts. We then proceeded to have fun with Sanfam [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

Follows are the ICQ logs from our conversations (edited so that they don't say anything they shouldn't):

A2597 was the first to message Sanfam asking what was going on:
[quote]
A2597: did you do that?
A2597: hello?
A2597: forum problems perhaps?
Sanfam(FO): Nhuh?
Sanfam(FO): I was about to say something.
A2597: check forums....
Sanfam(FO): And I forgot.
A2597: zocolo, warleader thread...
A2597: I take it that it wasn't you then....
Sanfam(FO): huh?
Sanfam(FO): I censored something. Yes. :P
A2597: maybe striker is having an evil streak?
...(stuff deleted)...
A2597: still doesn't answer my question...
A2597: your stalling!
Sanfam(FO): what was the question?
Sanfam(FO): I'm very, very confused.
A2597: did you do it?
Sanfam(FO): do what?
A2597: the warleader topic in the zocolo....
Sanfam(FO): What warleader topic?
Sanfam(FO): there are many?
A2597: the one...titled warleader...
Sanfam(FO): ? = !
Sanfam(FO): I'm seriously lost.
A2597: "Warleader ???"
A2597: thats the title of the thread...
Sanfam(FO): Do what. I see the thread.
A2597: check the latter post...
A2597: they are messed up.
Sanfam(FO): messed up how?
A2597: I take it you didn't do it...
A2597: take a look....
Sanfam(FO): I don't see anything wrong.
A2597: the edited by...
A2597: someone edited them
Sanfam(FO): Wasn't me.
A2597: someone edited them
Sanfam(FO): Wasn't me.
Sanfam(FO): Are you sure you didn't add it?
Sanfam(FO): Because Only myself and lorien have server access..
Sanfam(FO): Or does biggles?
A2597: and Striker?
Sanfam(FO): It says the message was never once edited.
Sanfam(FO): Chase has no FTP access.
A2597: weird...
Sanfam(FO): Maybe striker gave warleader Admin priviliges for a short period of time to freak you guys out, or something, but it shows there were no edits....
A2597: says warleader is still in the members group...
Sanfam(FO): It was probably a short term thing.
A2597: not nice....
Sanfam(FO): Wait. Chase doesn't have the ability to get passwords, I believe.
A2597: then....
Sanfam(FO): The only thing I can say is that you added it yourself, or you quoted random chaos' post, and didn't remove the warleader part.
A2597: I didn't quote RC though.
Sanfam(FO): Hmm.
Sanfam(FO): Something's funky.
A2597: I concur...
[/quote]


At this point, A2597 asks me to step in and help him keep it going...
[quote]
*** SecureIM session established with Sanfam.
Random Chaos: Hey - whats going on with Warleader?
Random Chaos: He's editing my post now!
Sanfam: I have no evidence warleader ever edited any posts.
Sanfam: He is a normal user.
Random Chaos: Then why is my post gone and it says "edited by warleader" !??
Sanfam: I don't know.
Sanfam: It confused me a whole lot.
Sanfam: something's up.
Sanfam: Someone's playing games.
Sanfam: and it's not me.
Random Chaos: You mean you didn't give warleader admin or something like that?
Sanfam: hell no.
Sanfam: I don't promote people without reason, or slowly gained trust.
Random Chaos: Could Warleader be one of the admins? Then he could have given himself admin rights to screw with us for a while!
Sanfam: no.
Sanfam: Admin rights are not given to oneself.
Sanfam: THey are earned
Sanfam: Sleep. Goodnight.
Random Chaos: Hypothetical: If Chase had rights to give others admin/mod privlages and Chase was Warleader, could he give Warleader those rights, post, then take those rights back awy?
Random Chaos: Just to screw with us
Sanfam: chase is not warleader, to my knowlege. We have too much information disproving that.
Sanfam: I think it is probably him. :P
Sanfam: (not warleader)
Sanfam: (but using his admin access to toy with us)
Sanfam: Sleep. Goodnight. :P
Random Chaos: ok...night
[/quote]


Meanwhile, a few more messages went back and forth between Sanfam and A2597:
[quote]
A2597: anyway to edit/delete logs? like to cover tracks?
Sanfam(FO): Somehow, I think chase did something about this.
Sanfam(FO): Anyhoo, sleep.
[/quote]

Note, Striker/Chase was not on...so Sanfam had no way of cross checking what he was saying.


This left me laughing well after I went to bed [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Note, an hour after I made this post, the following short conversation took place with Sanfam:

    [quote]
    Random Chaos: hey...you ever figure out what's going on with the warleader edits of posts?
    Sanfam: nope!
    Sanfam: Not a clue.
    Sanfam: And striker is not responding to me. :P

  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    See, the problem is that you are missing out a whole lot of other information. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/tongue.gif[/img]

    I also have a habit of "continuing" conversations with people other than the ones I started with, as some of you already know. I mentioned to A2597 that there was no record of any edits being made, so there. :P

    And also, I was out fine-tuning my new airsoft gun at the time of that post, so I did not check the forums. :P

    And also also, do not prey on the weak, the poor, or the Sleepy!

    I am very sleepy too often. :P

    Well, Sanfam bet me to the part about him being sleepy, and therefore not really paying attention (it happens a lot [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]). He was also busy. So basically he wasn't gullible, he just wasn't paying attention. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Now then, let me explain how I worked out very quickly that it was the posters who had added that line (and hence my reply):
    The time of RC's post: 10-31-2002 11:47 PM
    The time of A#'s post: 10-31-2002 11:58 PM
    The time of A#'s "what's going on?" post: 11-01-2002 12:01 AM

    Now, between RC's post and A#'s first post there was another. Why wasn't that edited? Warleader is crazy, he would have edited it rather than going for the two on either side.
    Also, A#'s second post was too close to the first. The chance of warleader coming along and editing it between him posting and him "coming back to check on it" are rather slim, especially given the overall speed of the server.
    Thirdly, noone would be stupid enough to give admin rights to someone who enjoys posting strings of exclamation marks long enough to require 3 monitors to view at once.
    And finally, RC and A#s do this sort of thing all the time. You guys are far too predictable. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    How else would you coordinate such an activity? Smoke Signals?

    Unless someone here *cough* actually has three monitors in a row, and the ability to stretch a browser window onto all. :P *cough* *brag*

  • ArgoneArgone Genuine Klingon
    Just an Idea Sanfam, But that cough is getting pretty bad maybe you should quit smoking [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Smoke signals are fun. Think of where the smoke comes out of when you send smoke signals over the internet [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    I only have two, but that's generally enough.

    Alright.

    You'd have to have been there back in 99 or earlier to REALLY get it, but I asked Tron if I could have the password to Capt. Austin's account over ICQ. After a few days, I got it. Then, I started messing with the minds of the anal uptight warsies by just generally being an ass. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/tongue.gif[/img] I would go on and on about how the Feds would stop the Empire w/o any proof (which pisses them off to no end! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]) and ramble on and on about how the UFP is superior to the Empire. I let this go for a few days, and then just when they were ready to lynch "Austin", I let them in on the joke. I swear, I wish I could've seen the look on their faces when they saw who was responsible for all that. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/tongue.gif[/img] (This was done with the understanding that I wouldn't go over-the-line with it. [ie: no flaming people, etc.] )

    I've got another one planned, but I don't want to spoil it for ya'll (and them) since several ppl at SB post here. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
