Hmm, if he's just winding us up, and then playing some prank in good spirit, in five days, he's got a sense of humor the size of Douglas Adams.

On the other hand, if he f**** it all up, he's just another petty little wanker, who can only define himself by destroying good things for others.

And who want's to be a petty little wanker?

I bet he's a top dog prankster, so let's see what he pulls off.

I managed to reinstate QinetiQ.

But the plot thickens...

I couldn't tell who banned him, which is very unusual, and there was a note saying "you'll find out"...
well if anything here is supposed to be for real....then this is not the end of rwi....then we wouldn't find you, right?? this statement leaves me to belive it is his intention to reveal his true identity by the end of this " marvin hilton attention madness"...

If it really was an intruder, they'd shut down the forum and clean things up. Really ... So its one of them, fooling around a bit. Look at the images, they are on the server. So they are playing games - why not, let's play along.

As a former admin of another vb-based forum I could point out some, uh, inconsistencies in what has been posted. :)

I fully believe that it's all in good fun and I am more than happy to play along. Don't freak out, just enjoy the ride. :anopsis:

My PERSONAL belief is that if it were a real scenario the admins would have taken the forum off line until it was resolved, and we'd all be getting our status updated via twitter or RWG. :thumbsup:

Simple solution: Make a MySQL backup/dump through the Confixx interface directly on the server. The alledged malicious script cannot interfere because it cannot know a backup is happening. So once you have your backup, kick the script, purge the disk and set up from scratch. Importing the MySQL dump will take a while, though.

But then, why not wait what's coming. It will be interesting to see :lol:

The heat is so much on, it is melting Marvins numbers...

Dr, that's exactly what we're working on. But frankly, I don't think that the bot has evil intentions. I just think this is a countdown to something huge... what it is, I guess we'll find out in a few days. As for the identity of the bot, I suspect we'll find out then too.
