VIRUS ALERT!

Post by Stuart »

I received an e-mail from Otto F. Decker (from this forum, "Re: Re: Bug with Knight's Test (SI)...") which had an attached card.pif file.

TO EVERYONE (especially Otto): ENSURE YOUR MACHINES HAVE NOT BEEN INFECTED WITH A VIRUS!

since we are into the OT big time here, does anyone here know a bit (a lot?) about postfix configuration?

Since the virus originated from a guy on this forum, I think it's clear why he posted it here. Wasn't much need to get snippy.

So, Artaxerxes, are you new here? I dunno if it's just me, but, this is the first time I've seen you.

You might want to read the first post again and then figure out what Stuart does, and why it's got anything to do with the project. ;)

hmm, Ataxerxes being new...hmmm... I think I saw him on our very old messageboard on Jackchaos before. Posting rather often if I'm not mistaken.
But people, please calm down. No use getting angry because of those posts.

didn't mean to offence anyone..

sorry about that...

As to whether I am new, well, not really. I posted on Jackchaos as Dominus mentioned. I actually new exult before Dominus was promoted FAQ maintainer.

Accidentally, you'll find my name in the source code and/or credit.
(in the credit I go with my RL name: aurelien marchand).


Anyhoo... No offence meant, I hope no offence taken.

I think it was Tristan who wanted to credit me for the Longest-Post-On-The-Board (TM)!

:)

Eventually, Willem simply asked my my RL name and added it to the credit. That was a long time ago now.

I haven't checked lately but last time I checked, under bodies.cc you would see a _HUGE_ array of living shape/dead shape/dead frame. I went through the 4 or 5 dead shapes one by one and tried to locate the corresponding living shape. I didn't manage to find a correlation between the frame number and the living shape number. :(

I remember I even made a MySQL table containing living shape, dead shape, dead frame and description so that I could update it easily with phpMyAdmin and post the changes easily on Jackchaos forum.

When I think of it, there was an ultima 9 forum in Jackchaos. Too bad it does not exist anymore, as now people tend to think this is an ultima[1-9] board! :( (again no offense meant)


Cheers
