  • God, they're just coming out of the woodworks this week

    Just wanted to post this as a heads up to FFXIO Staff, users here and those that may browse Alla. KI, BG and FFXIlopedia users should be on the lookout as well.

    There's a fellow named "rojjeduee" about posting a link to a virus on that site on each job forum on Alla, cleverly placing links in the stupidest threads you'd ever hope to read, baiting you in hopes you'll not only flame him, but click his link. Its probably some jerk taking advantage of the security scares on various FFXI sites in hopes people will to pin it on BG or something.

    He'll probably take a different name, just look out for this kind of post:

    "I'm only level 16 in this job..."

    And then he'll rant rant rant and slip in his link, then rant some more.

    He could move here next, just be on the lookout.

    Well, he won't be able to post the link here, at least. But it's still good to know. We can just report him when we see him.

      True, but this was just as much for this forum as others, I just don't have the time to go to every last one, ya know. We just had our first loldrama explosion on LBR last night and we had to go deal with that. It was the stupidest shit ever, too.

      A guest host was offended by a rule we made for worldcom chats LBR was to start hosting again, we simply were asking him to treat other members with respect in the skype LBR worldcom chat and he went off the hosts for it, so he got banned. You know, like asking people to be nice to each other is this unreasonable thing. If you want to be a prick on worldcom, make your own room and be a prick there.

      He cooled off and got unbanned, but damn, does it get any more pathetic than that? This between the BG drama and hacker/virus scares. I don't know whether to die laughing for crumple over for lack of sleep. This week has sucked and its not even halfway over yet.

        Somewhat related, some here might find it interesting - an attempt to get WoW passwords:

        And a followup
        http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=3351

        These things happen a lot, thankfully it's usually WoW that's the target.

          It's times like this that having a second computer, dual boot, or virtual machine comes in handy.


          really though anyone who just randomly clicks links deserves what they get.

            Its happened multiple times over the last week or so at allah. We have put the warning outs plus they can't post urls here.

            Its probably some jerk taking advantage of the security scares on various FFXI sites in hopes people will to pin it on BG or something.
            These people have been posting these links before the whole wiki thing. This is not some conspiracy.

                Although what Feba says is true, it is nice to warn people. Especially since those people were impersonating old users on the website.

                        First I've seen of it, but then, my Alla/KI viewing ebbs and flows around the updates.

                          Saying you were true was for only that one instance. Sorry bud.

                              (2) Are you trying to make this into an argument?
                              (3) Why? If so, let it go. I'm sorry I don't live on Alla.
