RMS has the best and most accurate definition for hacking. And his definition is as relevant today, as it was before his own lifetime when it was used. Cracking is just a fact of computing.

Oh the years of my life lost to this debate. I really should stop carrying.

idk. Somewhat OT: Did u see that omelet crys makes in the food forum? I'm surprised it didn't crash the servers when he posted it.

I didn't know an omelet sandwich counted or that people just had a goto loaf of rye bread available at all times.

It did sound pretty delicious though.

Can anyone confirm that Xavier McPrawn did NOT receive a 24 hour ban over the weekend?

EDIT: JW... no documentation in VOTB.

Got em, also.

Added human verification to the login screen after a single failed attempt. That should help curb the problem(as it seems to be going on everywhere).

Also, I don't know why someone would go through the trouble of all this. The spam they are going after isn't a) effective or b) working here because we have a pretty elaborate and kick ass anti-spam system and c) awesome members report anything that gets through the cracks instantly.

Are you sure it's not just Grimson trying to see what's going on in the Bar?

I think it's BearsBud trying to get as many abandoned accounts so he can come back and post something, then log into alt accounts and thank himself a lot, while disliking you(jokes on him, disliking is disabled!)

All you need to do to get him back is give his B&I access back. And with Trump running for POTUS, you know deep down that it's the right thing to do.
